History

Ralph Roberts was a scientist who had been studying the effects of nuclear radiation involving cobalt. He sought to use this as a weapon and began designing a suit. Upon completion, he called himself the Cobalt Man.

He was later forced to serve Egghead as part of the Emissaries of Evil.

Roberts was believed to have been killed in a nuclear explosion while trying to escape from Egghead.

Paraphernalia

Equipment

The Cobalt man operated a powered armor similar to that of Iron Man. It used cobalt to power a nuclear reactor, although it was notoriously unstable. The armoured suit gave him a number of abilities including superhuman strength and stamina, near-invulnerability, concussive force blasts, the ability to survive in vacuum and flight.

Notes

  • To infiltrate the Thunderbolts, Iron Man created his own version of the Cobalt Man armor and posed as Roberts.
