Plastic Man was a hero who passed the mantle to his son, Plastic Man II.
History
Years ago, petty crook Eels O'Brien was shot, falling into a vat of an unknown acid. Nursed back to health in a retreat, he realized that the acid gave him the ability to stretch his body. Now truly repentant, O'Brian embarked on a new career as Plastic Man (often aided by his idiot sidekick Woozy Winks). After some time, he married, and fathered a son, who would gain the same elastic powers after drinking the same acid.[1]

- This version of Plastic Man, including all history and corresponding appearances, was erased from existence following the collapse of the original Multiverse in the 1985–86 Crisis on Infinite Earths event and later restored following the rebirth of the infinite Multiverse during the Dark Crisis of 2022-2023. Even though other versions of the character may have appeared, this information does not apply to those versions.
