Function: Crusader
“It is the duty of the most powerful to help the most needy.”
Profile: Breakneck is a hero, that’s something he won’t let you forget in a hurry. A noted defender of the weak and champion of justice, Breakneck decided to venture from his homeworld and spread his actions – and name – across the galaxy. With his expert fighting skills, powerful armor and sleek speed, he has always been in the top tier, and never had to face a real challenge or had anything to lose. How he might react once he discovers that there is a big bad galaxy out there, full of creatures far more powerful and dangerous than he, is anyone’s guess.
Abilities: Breakneck’s main asset is his speed, both in his alternate mode of an armored racing car and in his robot mode. His wheeled foot design enables him to make the best use of his engines, being able to weave his way nimbly and powerfully through the most difficult of situations.
Weaknesses: Breakneck has never had to suffer a true defeat. Some believe he is motivated more by his ego than by any real desire to do good and that if the situation arose, his instincts for self-preservation might eclipse his moral compass.
First Appearance: Slagacon #1, 2010
