Description:

Brainstorm's costume consists of an ebony bodysuit with mint green boots, cuffs, and vest. The striping on the sides of the outfit, as well as his mask and belt buckle, are white.

The black van screeched around the corner, and two men with blaster pistols opened fire on the young couple walking along the sidewalk. The man was hit three times in the chest and the woman was grazed across the temple. A door slid open on the van, and large hands grasped the pair's stunned six year-old son. The door slammed shut again, sealing the boy in darkness with unknown terrors.
Thus, Kent Hampton was kidnapped by the sinister Parapsychological Studies Institute (PSI). Kent was told that he was a mutant, and that PSI would help him survive in a hostile world. What followed were eleven years of torturous testing and medical probing. Eventually the scientists at PSI developed a chemical stimulant that allowed Kent to tap his latent ego abilities. Massive doses of this drug were injected into Kent daily as his masters trained him to control his new powers. But the drug had a terrible side effect: Kent became dependent upon its daily administration to stay alive.
At the age of seventeen, Kent managed to escape the clutches of his tormenters with the secret formula of his ego-stimulating medicine. Vowing revenge, Kent adopted the identity of Brainstorm and began a career as a costumed crimefighter. After several months of working solo, Brainstorm was asked to join the Protectors as their resident egoist.
Though he is remarkably efficient in combat, Brainstorm is classically immature. His many years in captivity have left him without social skills, and he frequently makes embarrassing or hurtful remarks. Ace has a great deal of pity for Brainstorm - a feeling he has misinterpreted as affection. At the urging of Maelstrom, Brainstorm has recently begun studying sociology at the University of California at Berkeley.
At times, Kent seems to operate from pure hormones. He will often try to seduce a villainess before fighting her and may waste a phase sending crude suggestions telepathically. In his spare time, Kent likes to read trashy science fiction novels and detective magazines. Loud heavy-metal music can usually be heard blaring from his quarters, and soon, Kent hopes to move in his own set of drums.

Brainstorm's own mental abilities have been enhanced tremendously by the stimulant drug he is addicted to. However, as his proficiency with psychokinetic powers has increased, so too has his conceit. Kent frequently shows contempt for other egoists, and Quasar struggles to keep Kent from "dueling" psychically. When engaged in battle, Brainstorm will usually keep his back close to a wall to prevent surprise ambushes. If possible, Brainstorm will remain in a relatively hidden location, firing his Ego Attacks at opponents until his cover is blown. Then he will begin to utilize his Telekinetic attack, grabbing one opponent and throwing him into another.
