[edit] History
Shortly after discovering his powers, Adam tried to use them to take revenge on a record producer who had plagiarized his music and gave it as a hit single to an uprising rapper named Ice Pack. Static was able to stop him. However, Adam saw him as more of a nuisance than an actual opponent.[1]
Shortly after, Adam escaped prison tried to follow up with music career under the alias "Stringer", and even dated Virgil's sister, Sharon, until Virgil inadvertently blew his cover. Adam turned himself in after stopping bounty hunters Puff and Onyx, in order to finish doing his time.[2]
Later on, when he was released for good behavior, Rubberband Man became a superhero like Static, somewhat putting him in his shadow. This caught Ebon's eye too, and he tried to have his brother join his gang, first by having Adam save him from Static, then by framing him on breaking his partners in crime - Talon, Shiv, Aquamaria and Carmen Dillo - from prison. Hunted by police, Rubberband Man had no choice but to join Ebon. However, in time, Static found out about Ebon's plan and helped Adam clear his name.[3]
Adam secretly struggled with dyslexia, which he worked to overcome to solve a particularly difficult case.[4]
[edit] Powers and Abilities
Rubberband Man was made of rubber, and could change his body in any shape, much like Elongated Man and Plastic Man. In "They're Playing My Song", he demonstrated an absolute level of shapeshifting by taking on the form of a woman, having even changed his colors accordingly.
