Abner Krill was infected with an interdimensional virus because his own mother, a scientist at STAR Labs and obsessed with superheroes, performed experiments on him. As a result of so many experiments, he developed a meta-human condition, which caused him to create multicolored spheres shaped like glowing pustules on his body. He needs to expel the spheres in order not to be consumed by them. Codenamed Polka-Dot Man, he launches these incendiary balls like projectiles with the aid of special gauntlets, and the spheres are capable of disintegrating anything they come into contact with. As a result, Abner suffered severe psychological trauma from his mother’s experiences with him and his siblings. Depressed and clumsy and suffering from PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder), which causes him to see his mother’s face in everyone around him.
