Harry Thurston, was a young scientist who was conducting a prospection on a remote island in the South Pacific. He was accompanied by his assistant, Tom Kinsman, his friend, the pilot Robert Blake, and Robert's fiancée, the beautiful anthropologist Joyce Church. As Harry studied the unique makeup of the island, the excavation was sabotaged and a terrible explosion occurred, leaving only Harry and his friends and the excavation's foreman, the intrepid Jack Bradley, alive. The explosion disintegrated them, but somehow, the rare materials of the island combined with the energy of the explosion and something in the DNA of the four made them return from nowhere, transformed into elemental creatures, living representations of the four states of matter: Solid (Bradley), Liquid (Blake), Gaseous (Joyce) and Plasma (Thurston himself). After a moment of despair, they discovered that they could control this fantastic change simply by willpower.
Using their new abilities, the four encountered and confronted the saboteurs, who turned out to be Lava Man and his acolytes. After defeating them, the four decided to stay together, forming the United States of Matter and chosing colorful nicknames by which they would be known: Fearless Flint, Hydro-Man, Blue Flame and Ariel.
Harry developed the translite, a fabric with exceptional qualities and great resistance that would be used to make indestructible uniforms made of this material.
