- Overview
- History The green-skinned Leech's early history is unknown. He was a rare mutant whose physical mutation became apparent before reaching puberty. Leech was found by the Morlocks and raised as part of their underground community in The Alley. Leech was kept in close proximity to the Drain Dwellers Morlock group after Annalee lost her children to attackers. Annalee was a projecting empath, and her depression would affect her neighbors if Leech wasn't around to cancel her powers. Leech sought affection from Annalee, but she initially rejected him for being so ugly.[2] With the encouragement of their friends in Power Pack, however, Annalee finally warmed to Leech, and he began calling her "mama".[3] Mutant Massacre

Powers
Power Negation: Leech can project a dampening field out from his body that disables any additional neural pathways found in the human brain, temporarily blocking access to any paranormal abilities (including: other mutations, extraterrestrial, magical, etc.) so long as they are within range of his field's variable radius, which is approximately 10 yards. Some physical effects, such as being thin, may also occur depending on the nature of the powers that he negated. He was stated to be a Low Threat by the O*N*E.
