Fictional character biography

Harris Moore was born in New York. In the late 1950s, radiation from a mysterious gaseous entity resembling a tiny comet mutagenically altered him, giving him superhuman flying and electrical powers, which he used as a costumed crimefighter. Decades later, he went to Xandar to aid its people in their war against the Skrulls as one of the Champions of Xandar. After his son Crimebuster died, the Comet chose to remain on Xandar.

The Comet died in battling the forces of Nebula.[1]
