History[]
New Earth[]
Manfred Mota was a nuclear physicist who served in the U.S. Army during the 1940s. Mota possessed an obsession with causing explosions which led to his discharge from the military. Unhinged, Mota built an armored costume powered by atomic energy using materials he had stolen from Jay Garrick's lab. He adopted the identity of Atom Smasher and began committing crimes in Keystone City, but was apprehended by Garrick. He swore revenge and devoted his time in jail toward designing new weaponry.
Decades later, he reappeared, now named Professor Fallout, and learned about the second Flash, Barry Allen. Assuming this Flash was the same one who put him into prison, Mota traveled to Central City and held the city ransom with a neutron bomb. Eventually, Mota battled and was apprehended by Barry Allen. After another lengthy prison term he designed a new armored costume powered by parts stolen from a nuclear power plant and named himself Fusionn. He again came after the Flash, not realizing that the hero currently going by the name was actually Wally West. This encounter with the third Flash left Mota without a physical form.
Centuries later, Mota survived with a new form, as a being made of living plutonium in 2645 and battled the Flash of that era, John Fox. Fox used a Cosmic Treadmill to transport Mota to the year 50 billion A.D., at which point Mota's body decayed into lead.
