Brimstone also known as Nicholas Lucien was a villain who appeared in The Brave and the Bold Issue #200.
History[]
From an early age, Lucien, who lives on Earth-Two, can sense the existence of his Earth-One counterpart in the Multiverse. His resentment of this unseen counterpart leads Lucien to a life of crime. By 1955, Lucien establishes himself as "Brimstone the Modern Mephistopheles", who commits Satanic-themed crimes in Gotham City. He has superhuman strength, endurance, and is able to generate extremely high temperatures which can produce bursts of flame or be used as a flaming sword. A fight with Earth-Two's Batman leaves Lucien in a coma for 28 years. When Lucien awakens in 1983 and finds himself as an inmate at Gotham State Penitentiary, his body has atrophied. Craving vengeance on Batman, Lucien learns that Batman is dead when he was told of it by his cellmate Joker who mocked him. Lucien uses his mind to possess his Earth-One counterpart, who is a businessman and well-respected member of his community. Lucien makes his counterpart adopt the Brimstone identity in an attempt to kill Earth-One's Batman. After this fails upon Batman defeating him, the mind of the Earth-Two Lucien is forced back into its own body. As a side-effect of his mental projection across the dimensional barrier, Lucien is completely paralyzed.
