HISTORY

Neptune Perkins was born a mutant with a severe sodium deficiency which required him to be almost constantly exposed to salt water. He inevitably became a proficient swimmer, able to live entirely in the water if he so chose. In 1942, he began encountering the American mystery men of the All-Star Squadron and in time joined them as one of the Young All-Stars.

After the war, he married fellow All-Star Tsunami and took up a career in politics, currently serving on the U.S. Senate. He was thought to have been the father of Tsunami's child, Deep Blue, but it transpired that she had cheated on him with Atlan. Perkins, now divorced from Tsunami, continued his political career.

He was killed by the Shark while battling the Society. - Infinite Crisis #3
