Created by Jack Kirby, the character first appeared in Forever People #1, (February 1971). Infinity-Man’s story begins with Astorr, a powerful warrior from another planet, rescuing and nursing back to health the badly burned Drax (brother of Darkseid). Before dying himself of old age, Astorr passes on his role as ‘Infinity-Man’ to Drax, who then spends several years studying in preparation. Having assumed the title of Infinity-Man, Drax goes on to serve Highfather on New Genesis, where he is acquainted with Forever People and becomes a protector. Whenever Infinity-Man is needed, the Forever People grant him special powers by touching the mother box and reciting the word “Taaru”. This ritual would cause The Forever People to enter a state of limbo, until Infinity-Man returns the power to them. In one story, Darkseid sees Infinity-Man as a threat and is able to place him in another dimension. Infinity-Man temporarily makes a new home on a planet called Adon, until The Forever People free him from this prison.
Infinity-Man has not been a contender in any CBUB matches.
