Biography:
Kid Marvelman, later known as Kid Miracleman, is a character created by Alan Moore and Garry Leach for Warrior magazine, published by Quality Communications. He's a dark and deconstructed take on the classic Captain Marvel/Shazam! archetype.
His alter ego is Johnny Bates, a young orphan. Through a specific word, the one used by the original Marvelman Family, he transforms into the super-powered Kid Marvelman. Unlike his youthful counterpart, Bates as Kid Marvelman is a sadistic and utterly amoral being. He revels in violence and destruction, showcasing a disturbing lack of empathy.
His introduction involves slaughtering his old school and ends with him causing widespread devastation in London, demonstrating his immense power and psychopathic tendencies. He serves as a critical foil to the revived Marvelman, highlighting the potential for corruption and the dangers of unchecked power.
Kid Marvelman's existence is defined by his brutal acts and the challenge he poses to Marvelman's attempts to create a utopian society. He's not a villain motivated by conquest, but by pure, unadulterated chaos.
