While working dangerously close to the core of a nuclear power plant and balanced precariously on a ledge, Adam Pyle fell and landed smack-dab on the atomic pile.  Since the glare of the reaction was so intense, no one could look directly at it and Adam was presumed dead.  In actuality, he was not dead but had managed to crawl off the pile of plutonium pellets and escape through a heavily shielded rear exit.  Adam took on a new identity by adding the middle name Mick and working at a different nuclear reactor.

In the meantime, he discovered the raw nuclear energy the fall into the plutonium had given him, and had fashioned a super-hero outfit with a picture of a cliché atom on the front.  Calling himself "Radioactive Man," he set out to rid the world of evil.  On his first night out fighting crooks, however, he completely disintegrated two petty thieves and caused more property damage in the process than he cared to calculate.  He was branded a vigilante and arrested by the local police, all because he "couldn't control his powers very well."  Deciding once and for all to screw society, since what had it done for him?, he broke out of jail with a single blast of fission energy and became an independent super-villain.  His favorite comment is "Hey ______, how'd you like a face fulla alpha particles!"
