Ebon was arguably Static's arch-enemy in his years as a young superhero. Desiring control, Ebon continually tried to recruit bang babies to join his Metahuman gang, the Meta-Breed.

History

Ivan Evans spent time in juvenile hall in his teens, and after getting out, he went straight back to his old life. He was a nobody, desperately trying to become big in crime. This led to arguments with his brother, Adam, and their father.

As any gang banger in Dakota, Ivan was at the docks at the night of the Big Bang. The gas changed him into a living shadow, and he named himself Ebon to reflect his inner darkness. Now that he had power, he started to build a gang around himself, the Meta-Breed. He "collected" those Bang Babies that were horribly misshapen by the gas, and could not return to their old lives.

Ebon was a bitter opponent of both Static and his brother, who had also been exposed to the gas and was now Rubberband Man. He was also a staunch enemy of all attempts to revert the effects of the Big Bang, and tried to recreate the explosion twice. At first, he used Timezone to travel back to the Dakota Riots, a gang bang even larger than the Docks fight, and stole a tanker full of the mutagen.

With the cure sprayed into the atmosphere, Ebon lost his powers. Desperate in his loss and the abandonment of his oldest ally, Talon, he teamed up with Hotstreak and several other Bang Babies to recreate the Bang once more. But it backfired; in the explosion, Ebon and Hotstreak were fused together and were lost at the bottom of the docks, never to be seen again.

Powers & Abilities

Ebon's powers were based on shadows. He was a mass of living shadow, with the ability to manipulate shadows. He could glide along walls, slip under doors and through cracks. He could travel from one shadow to another, as well as absorb other people or objects, carrying them with him. Ebon's weakness was bright light.
