Overview

  • Major Force is a nuclear-powered supervillain and evil counterpart to Captain Atom.
  • Clifford Zmeck was the second test subject of the Captain Atom Project, becoming Major Force. Unlike the first, Zmeck belonged in jail, and the project only made him a bigger psychopath. He is a deeply sadistic force often working for clandestine government projects.

Background

  • Sergeant Clifford Zmeck, the second test subject in the U.S. government's " Captain Atom Project", had received a life sentence for murder when he was selected to receive a double coating of alien alloy and stand at ground zero during an H-bomb explosion. Zmeck shot into the quantum field at the instant of detonation. When he emerged, decades had passed and he had gained superhuman powers. General Wade Eiling took command of Zmeck, naming him Major Force and laser-etching a "costume" onto his metallic shell. Major Force was assigned to shadowy government bureaus such as the Quorum. He has been killed and resurrected many times.
