| |||||
Cody is Sally Impossible's brother. A few years ago while visiting his sister at Impossible Industries, one of Professor Impossible's inventions malfunctioned causing an unnatural mutation within Cody. Now whenever he comes into contact with oxygen his body is set a flame. To keep him from being in constant pain, and possibly to keep him alive, he must remain in a hibernating stasis at all times.
Though his fiery mutation does not appear to do any physical damage to his body, he is still able to feel an immense level of pain. The reason for this is never explained.
It is presumed that he now resides on Spider-Skull island, with Sally and Ned, still in stasis, as JJ attempts to work on a cure for his condition.
[edit] Trivia
- Cody, along with the rest of the Impossible team, is clearly based on the Marvel comic hero team the Fantastic 4. Cody is the analogue to The Human Torch, Johnny Storm. Unlike Johnny, whose fire-based powers serve many uses and is unaffected by his own flame, Cody's powers are uncontrollable and harmful to himself.
