Kip Adams was a biochemist who developed a serum that increased his physical abilities beyond human limits. The United States was living in turbulent times and Kip decided to use his increased abilities for the common good, so he designed a uniform and some gadgets and embarked on adventure as the masked The Flame. The Flame collaborated with Susan Page, an intrepid journalist, forming a curious (yet typical in the world of capes) love triangle with her own secret identity as the third vertex. Kip served as a member of the second team of Liberty Guards during World War II. Unfortunately, The Flame was killed during a skirmish.
POWERS & WEAPONS
Using his knowledge of biochemistry, Kip developed a serum that gave him superhuman strength, stamina, and reflexes. The Flame carried a small, pistol-sized flamethrower.
