Geo-Force - Powers and Abilities

Powers and Abilities

As implied by his codename, all of Brion's powers are in some way related to the planet Earth. He can manipulate the Earth's gravitational field to make an object heavier ("plus-gravity") or lighter ("null-gravity"). He can also project scorching "lava blasts" in imitation of terrestrial volcanoes. By using his null-gravity power on himself coupled with lava blasts for propulsion, Geo-Force can fly at great speeds for short periods of time (his teammate Black Lightning once remarked that Geo-Force weakens after flying 1,000 miles). Geo-Force has also demonstrated the ability to manipulate the Earth itself, in a manner similar to Terra Geo-force has also been shown to have the ability to turn organic material to stone. This ability is not quite explained in the one instance he has turned the reanimated corpse of Terra to stone.

Geo-Force also possesses impressive superhuman strength and durability. In fact, Geo once used his gravity manipulation powers to enhance his own super-strength, giving him power enough to fight Superman toe-to-toe. When he was shot in the back by the clone of Baron Bedlam, the bullets staggered him, but they did not puncture his skin. With the addition to Terra's powers to his own, his durability seems diminished. He can now be at least slashed by sharp items, but usually deep wounds trigger an increase in his powers leading to earth-manipulation powers.

Geo-Force gained his powers due in part to his heritage as a prince of Markovia, and the effects of the device designed for manifesting said powers. Only one with royal Markov blood can retain these powers permanently. The source of Geo-Force's powers is the Earth itself. During his first adventure, Geo-Force was apparently killed and buried by enemy soldiers. The Earth nurtured Geo-Force, healing his wounds and essentially "recharging" him.

Geo-Force is at his strongest when he is firmly planted on the ground; his powers and health will deteriorate if he is taken off of the Earth for a long period of time. In such instances, Geo-Force will die unless he returns to Earth in time.
