Fictional character biography

First appearing in Detective Comics Annual #6 (1993), Dwayne Geyer gained metahuman abilities during the Bloodlines crossover. After being bitten by the alien Pritor, Geist gains the ability to become invisible. ^[1] He becomes less visible in dim lighting and completely invisible in bright light.

During the Infinite Crisis event, Geist and the Blood Pack are killed by Superboy-Prime. ^[2] Geist later appears as a resident of Limbo, a dimension inhabited by forgotten characters where no stories happen. Geist is rescued by Superman and a dimension-crossing ship and helps battle the cosmic threat of Mandrakk. ^[3]

In Adventure Comics (vol. 2), Geist is reanimated as a member of the Black Lantern Corps. Superboy-Prime destroys Geist using a black power ring, which generates a burst of colored energy that destroys Black Lanterns. ^[4]
