The Floronic Man

Jason Woodrue was a scientist who became physically merged with plant life, transforming into the Floronic Man — a being with a human mind and a body intertwined with the green kingdom of flora, giving him an obsessive connection to the plant world.

Born from the fertile imagination of George Pérez and Gerry Conway in 1981, The Floronic Man burst onto the Bronze Age DC scene in the pages of Justice League of America — about as grand an entrance as a character can make. Over a remarkable span stretching from that debut all the way to 2025, this eerie, plant-touched figure has kept extraordinary company, sharing pages with Superman, Batman, Bruce Wayne, and Green Lantern across some of DC's most storied titles. Prominent enough to earn a dedicated entry in Who's Who: The Definitive Directory of the DC Universe — the ultimate stamp of DC canon significance — The Floronic Man is one of those gloriously strange corners of the DC universe that rewards the curious collector willing to dig a little deeper.
