Powers

• Super Speed: He can run so fast that he cannot be seen.

Weaknesses

  • The eagle wings on the side of his boots also make him resemble the Marvel Comics superhero Namor, in that he has two tiny wings on both his ankles, which allows him the ability to fly, and Hermes, on both sides of each of his sandals called the Talaria, which also gives him the ability to fly.
