Who is Kid Psycho?

A 30th-century hero with formidable psychokinetic powers, Kid Psycho was barred from full Legion of Super-Heroes membership because each use of his abilities shortens his lifespan, relegating him to reserve status despite his genuine capabilities.

A rare gem from DC's Bronze Age, Kid Psycho made their debut in 1976's Limited Collectors' Edition #C-49, brought to life by the legendary Legion-era creative pairing of Jim Shooter and Curt Swan. With appearances stretching across an impressive 35 years and a presence in landmark titles like Adventure Comics and Crisis on Infinite Earths, this character punches well above their modest catalog count β€” two of those seven appearances carry key-issue status, making them a genuine collector's target. Sharing pages with the likes of Invisible Kid, Val Armorr, and Andrew Nolan places Kid Psycho squarely in distinguished company, and any character who turns up in Crisis on Infinite Earths has earned their place in DC history.
