A member of the Fatal Five.

The real name of the man known as the Persuader is unknown. He is a high paid assassin who is super-strong. The Persuader wields his Atomic Axe, a weapon from World War VII. The Axe is invincible and invulnerable. It has the ability to cut through an substance and is able to even cut forces like gravity, magnetism, and force shilds. Though super-strong, the Persuader is not invulnerable.

Offered a pardon by Princess Projectra to aid the Legion of Super-Heroes in fighting a Sun-eater that had entered Earth's solar system, the Persuader became one of the five original members of the Fatal Five. After aiding the Legion in defeating the Sun-eater, the Fatal Five continued to work together for their own ends.
