Bradley Glenn is the armor wearing villain known as Blackrock.
History
Origins
Bradly was a common criminal who upon being released from prison was contacted by a program called "Bad Ass Nation" who wanted to show the world from the eyes of a supervillain by giving him a mechanized armor and having him destroy a bridge while they recorded the whole thing.[1]
Bradley got in his new armor and prepared himself to destroy the bridge without knowing that because of traffic the crew had failed to close the road causing him to start his stunts without knowing that he was putting people in danger.
A passing Superman noticed the commotion and engaged Blackrock who thought that the whole thing was just another stunt.[2]
Superman managed to get the upper hand in the fight and destroyed Blackrock's armor just to be shocked when he found out that the whole attack was being staged for a TV channel, who, disgusted, simply dropped Blackrock and flew away.[3]
Terminus Agenda
Years later, priest at her side, Glenn's mother was dying of heart failure in the hospital. Bradley left the hospital room claiming that he knew who was responsible for his mother condition and was going to make him pay. He was surprised outside of the hospital by an attack of the Teen Titans who had decided to take him in, Kid Flash stole his backpack thinking that it contained his armor while it was in reality a bomb that immediately exploded.
Emerging from the explosion undamaged and revealing a new armor he quickly engaged his attackers. During the battle while the Titans where busy saving civilians he took Roundhouse and tied him to an antenna on the top of a building, he then returned to the battle and angrily started yelling at the Titans to get out of his way as he wanted to save the civilians who had been caught in the fight, surprising the teenage heroes. He then told them that he blamed himself for his mother's situation and was contemplating suicide unti the priest convinced him to just turn himself in and was leaving to to so until the Teen Titans attacked him and put all those civilians in danger. Unknowingly to him he had caused a gas main to rapture and it exploded under his feet but was promptly saved by Kid Flash.[4]
