Who is Immortal Man?

Origin In 48,000 BC, the most heroic member of a unique pre-historic tribe that survived the dangers of their secluded valley through the use of extraordinary super-powers. The warrior who would one day be known as the Immortal Man was the sworn enemy of the terrible barbarian named Vandar Adg, perhaps the most evil man who ever lived. Many times, the young warrior had engaged in battle with Vandar Adg, their struggle never reaching a clear conclusion. On the day of what was intended to be their final confrontation, fate intervened in the form of a mysterious fireball that exploded above the field of battle. Bathed in the energy from the fireball, Vandar Adg was granted immortality. The young warrior, although not directly affected by the radiation, found himself changed as well. From the very heart of the exploded fireball, the young warrior extracted a glowing jewel, which he would wear from that moment on as an amulet around his neck. He soon discovered that after a fashion, he too had become immortal.
