Mister Miracle (1st Series)

He was the son of Izaya and Avia, the rulers of a world called New Genesis. That world of new gods had long been embroiled in a deadly clash with its sister world, Apokolips. Then, the malevolent Darkseid, ruler of Apokolips proposed a pact: he would trade his own son, Orion, for Izaya’s boy—as hostages of peace. When the trade was completed, Darkseid ordered the boy to be harshly raised at a military academy on Apokolips. In what was meant to be a cruel joke on the boy’s hopeless situation, he was given a name—Scott Free.

Eventually, Scott escaped from Apokolips, coming to Earth via the device known as “the Boom Tube.” There, he encountered a dwarf named Oberon, assistant to escape artist Thaddeus Brown, the original Mister Miracle. When Thaddeus was killed, Scott took on his identity and brought his killer to justice. In later years, Scott would become a member of the Justice League International.
