The Thin Man, still alive in the modern era due to his regenerative healing factor

In the 1930's, explorer Bruce Dickson attempted to climb Mount Kalpurthia in the Himalayas. There, he encountered a lost colony of Inhumans, which possessed extremely advanced technology. The Inhumans exposed him to a experimental Terrigen Mist which altered his body to grant him a regenerative healing factor, tremendous physical resilience, and flexibility, including the ability to become "thin", or rather, flat. Dickson learned much of their advanced technology and, in exchange for them giving them his powers, agreed to guard the secret of the Inhumans with his life.

When World War II broke out, Bruce decided to use his powers to help defeat the Axis Powers and return the world to peace. He became the superhero Thin Man, and subsequently later went on to become a member of the stateside team, the Liberty Legion.

Powers and Abilities[]

Powers[]

Bruce Dickson has been genetically modified to be able to shift and distort his body's molecular structure partially out of phase with three-dimensional reality. He can stretch or twist himself, absorb impacts such as bullets without harm, and become nearly two-dimensional by shifting part of his body mass into alternate dimensions. His limbs can effectively become blades in the process. He does not age and is seemingly immune to all known diseases.
