Bio
Real Name: Lance Lewis
Height / Weight: 5’11” / 185 lbs.
Hair / Eyes: Brown / Blue
Place of Birth: Peoria, Illinois (September 21, 1987)
First Appearance: Momentum #1
Biography: Lyle and Lana Lewis always knew that their son Lance was special. Diagnosed with Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder at twelve years old, Lance needed more attention than his little sister Laney. Prone to forgetfulness and perpetually wandering off, Lance carried his condition with him as he transitioned into adulthood. As most youths his age were preparing to get their driver’s licenses, Lance was preparing to enter high school- two years behind schedule.
It was then that Lance discovered his status as a Nephilim… unstoppable super-sonic speed. Naturally, his parents became more concerned for their son. He had always had trouble staying focused and now his ability to reach subsonic speeds made his wanderings all the more dangerous.
The first episode of his wanderings involved his musings if the Sphinx (modeled after a cat) had a tail. In making his way to the Great Sphinx, Lance Lewis came across the costumed villain known only as BOOM!. Lance’s powers made short work of the thunderous Neo-Sapien and made him a media darling. Cameras picked up the action and Lance’s sudden appearance on the super-hero scene was well-received.
Since adopting the identity of Momentum, Lance has become a household name. Accepting numerous commercial endorsements, Lance is a spokesman for the likes of Sonic Restaurants, Stridex, Axe, Jolt Cola, Puma and other such fine products- essentially leaving his uniform looking like something from the NASCAR circuit. His popularity, however, was quick to become his undoing…
His independent run came to an end when the American Government realized that Lance Lewis had failed to claim the money Momentum had made in endorsements. Rather than be punished for such tax evasion, a deal was struck. These days, Momentum acts as Uncle Sam’s not-so-secret weapon. Though he admittedly gets by largely on sheer dumb luck, Momentum is a hero for the masses- he’s charming, naïve, an ornery showboat and quicker than the human eye. …Almost making up for the effects he suffers from ADHD.
Almost.
