History
William Baker was a troubled young man who stole and cheated throughout his teens. While fleeing the police and the FBI, William had stopped to rest on a beach when an experimental reactor exploded nearby, fusing his body with sand. With his new abilities, Baker continues his life of crime as the virtually unstoppable Sandman.[1]
Cosmic Brick Crisis[]
Sandman was one of the villains recruited by Doctor Doom to locate and retrieve the Cosmic Bricks. He and Abomination teamed up to attempt to recover Cosmic Bricks in the possession of S.H.I.E.L.D.. They took over Grand Central Station and held several executives hostage in exchange for these Bricks. Iron Man and the Hulk were able to defeat Abomination and enter the building, making their way past Sandman's defences, causing Sandman to retaliate and attack Avengers Tower. With Spider-Man, joining to assist the two, the trio were able to use a combination of water and cement to solidify Sandman's form, allowing them to incapacitate him and take him into custody.[2]
Kang's Invasion[]
When brought to Chronopolis by Kang, Flint took up residence in Egypt because there was "too much sand". Trying to give a purpose to all the sand there, he creates a game where he creates a sand scene and mixes in it disguised so that someone can find out where he is. He played this game for hours with Rhino, but he decided to play a passing hero because Rhino was complaining a lot. Performing scenarios three times, the hero won Flint's game, and as a reward, he gives the hero a prize.[1]Notes
- Sandman is voiced by Dee Bradley Baker in LEGO Marvel Super Heroes and by John Guerrasio in LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2.
- Sandman costs 170,000 studs and can be purchased after completing the first mission of LEGO Marvel Super Heroes.
- William Baker goes by the name Flint Marko, as seen by him not liking being called "William" by Rhino and correcting him by saying "Flint" is correct.[1]
