Michael Sargon

Background: Michael Sargon was born with an intellect that dwarfed that of other men, and a thirst for power. He became convinced that for utopian peace and prosperity, the world needed to be ruled by an elite group of superintelligent men and women, with himself at the apex. The Earth would become a scientifically-ruled paradise.

Rising to prominence at an early age with discoveries in robotics, he studied under Dr Nathaniel Nova, founder of the Nova Institute. However, Sargon's questing intellect and megalomania soon brought him into conflict with many of Earth's superheroes, particularly the Sentries.

From his secret base on Mount Everest, or on an asteroid in Earth's orbit, he remained a menace to peace and security for decades.

After the Hero Wars, with his schemes exposed, Sargon fled to the distant Karnak Imperium, where he became a secret advisor to the Karnak Emperor known as the Consul. He was unmasked by Nomad and eventually returned to Earth. Some time after his return, he was captured by the LA superteam Knight/Watch.

Michael Sargon is descended from steam-age inventor Gabriel Sargon.
