Biography

Origin

Summoned by Mother Box in Infinity Man and the Forever People v1 #3.

The New 52

Following the Flashpoint, a new version of history was created with a new version of the Infinity-Man being created as a result. His origins were traced to the war between the New Gods of Apokolips and New Genesis. During this war, immense devastation was done to New Genesis with Izaya fearing about the cost of the conflict. Darkseid had offered a peaceful resolution through the Pact where he and Izaya would exchange sons. Izaya despaired at this option and consulted the Source Shard that linked directly to the Source that commanded that this be done. Overwhelmed by the power of the Source, Izaya was rendered unconscious whereby his guilt and conscience manifested into a separate being that was the Infinity-Man. (Infinity Man and the Forever People v1 #9)

In other media

Television

• In Young Justice, the character made an appearance in the episode "Disordered". Similar to the comics, he was a gestalt entity created by the merger of the Forever People. However, in this continuity, they merged into a 50 foot robotic entity with immense abilities such as manipulating matter, levitation and energy blasts. The Infinity-Man was summoned by the Forever Peoples Mother Box to defeat Intergang on Earth who were armed with weapons from Apokolips and whom the New Gods were investigating after learning of their technology among humans. After defeating Intergang, they along with Superboy track the group to their base and supplier who was Desaad. This proved to be a trap as when they called upon the Infinity-Man again, Desaad had a Fatherbox join the merger turning the entity to his control. Superboy was only able to free the Infinity-Man through the aid of the New Genisphere.
