Origin

Match is the creation of the Agenda, a secretive, worldwide cabal of scientists whose true agenda is a mystery. Led by the immortal Contessa, Lex Luthor's estranged wife, the Agenda first made their presence known when they captured Superboy and cloned Match from samples of Superboy's DNA.

Cunning, methodical and highly intelligent, Match possessed the raw knowledge and tactical training that Superboy lacked - a result of Match's more complete gestation process. Seeing Match as his genetic "brother", Superboy pleaded with the teen powerhouse - but Match's near-absolute loyalty to the Agenda blinded him to reason. Possessing more raw power and skill than Superboy, Match nearly defeated his genetic twin during their first encounter before Match was apparently buried in the Agenda's original underground facility.

Later, as part of the Agenda's massive campaign against the youth heroes, Match infiltrated Young Justice disguised as Superboy. He nearly succeeded in his efforts to drive a wedge between the team members before his ruse was exposed by the return of the real Kid of Steel. Once exposed, Match fled.

Teen Titans East

When his body and mind began to deteriorate, Match became a backwards-speaking Bizarro Teen of Steel. Seeing an opportunity to exploit the impact of Superboy's death, Deathstroke recruited Match as a member of his nefarious Titans East team.

Titans East set up their own Titans Tower on the East River, the very same location of the old tower. Deathstroke had his own agenda, which was to reclaim his children, Ravager and Jericho. Titans East was nearly successful in that mission, until Nightwing, Flash, Troia and Beast Boy helped turn the tide and reclaim their island headquarters. Wonder Girl was heartbroken while battling a clone of her deceased boyfriend, leaving Jericho to possess Match's body. The members of Titans East dispersed, unaware of Deathstroke's true objective; By cementing his offspring as trusted members of the team, Slade knew the Titans would provide his children with a better family than he ever could.

Powers

Like Superboy, Match's primary power is a limited form of telekinesis that mimics super-strength and flight. He is also able to disassemble objects with a touch. Later, Superboy manifested a certain amount of non-psychically derived super-strength. Superboy later developed heat vision, X-Ray vision and super-hearing, similar to his mentor's abilities.

Match possesses all the powers of Superboy, with even greater skill at mastering them. Match is able to project energy blasts from his eyes.
