Pre-Crisis
Originally born on Earth-Two as the son of the criminal Brainwave and Gimmick Girl (who was originally written as being tricked into the relation but later openly acceptant of her husband) Hank Jr. was revealed to have inherted his father's superhuman mental abilities.

Hank Jr. would remain mostly hidden from the condemnation of his famous parents until he attained early adulthood and sought to actively pursue an active crime-fighting career in some measure to attone for his father's past deeds in his uncle, Sylvester Pemberton, Jr., the original Star-Spangled Kid who was forming a new superhero group called Infinity, Inc.

Infinity, Inc. consisted of many of the direct children and successors of the Justice Society members. Despite their youth the team proved their effectiveness when they defeated their elder heroes when the Justice Society was possessed by the Stream of Ruthlessness. While a member of Infinity, Inc., Hank met and became romantically attached to Jade the daughter of Alan Scott. Despite his best attempts the relationship ended badly.

Post-Crisis
After the disbanding of the original Infinity Inc. Hank drops the Jr from his name and began on a series of events that finally resulted in him finally joining the JSA. It was revealed during this time that he was being controlled by the parasitic wormlike Mr. Mind who was using him as a source of food and development and causing him to run amok acting villianous.

Hank was saved from Mr. Mind by his fellow JSA members and turned over to the care of his mother, Merry Pemberton.

His current situation and power ability is undetermined.
