The strong, silent type, Crater was an alien of no words and all action, especially when it came to assaulting the last of the Nova Centurions,
Richard Rider, after witnessing the death of fellow
Luminal,
Suspensor. Crater traveled with the rest of his group to the place called Knowhere in hopes they could eliminate the threat of their arch-foe,
Abyss, forever. In a sad turn of events, Abyss slowly began to escape his prison and turned many of the citizens of Knowhere as well as Crater and the Luminals into his zombie slaves. Crater was eventually destroyed along with the rest of Abyss’ army once Nova and his ally
Cosmo sealed Abyss back in his prison, and the monster’s hold on Crater and the others was ended.
