Bio

Huey Moon is a Firedrake, the possessor of a rare recessive gene dating back to when man still longed for fire. Everything he had would burn, including his clothes, and because of that he decided to isolate himself in a junkyard where there was nothing to burn nor anyone to hurt.

When Miracleman and Warpsmiths decided to look for other superhumans living on Earth to join them, they found Huey living as a homeless in Philadelphia. They convinced him to join them by showing we would finally have company and a place to live without worrying about his powers hurting anyone, and he would be able to use them to help mankind instead, so after some reluctance, he accept the offer.

Huey aided Miracleman and the Warpsmiths in the battle of Londom agaist Kid Marvelman. After the defeat of Johnny Bates, Miracleman and his companions decided to fix planet Earth and rule it as benevolent gods from the top of their fortress, Olympus, which Miracleman had created from the destroyed city of London.

As one of Earth’s New Gods, Huey Moon was responsible for Earth’s energy demands, he created windmill forests, coastal waterwheels, and converted obsolete space weaponry into reflector satellites.
