History: (Flash vol. 2 #9-11) - Chunk was a scientific prodigy, though somewhat mentally imbalanced. At the age of 24 he invented a matter-transmitting machine, but when he tested the device it imploded, becoming a part of his body. Chunk was now a human black hole, capable of absorbing matter and transmitting it to other dimensions. Chunk also discovered that unless he consumed mass quantities of hard minerals he would implode and be transported to an extradimensional desert planet. Over the next few years he traveled there hundreds of times, often bringing along random bystanders, criminals and malcontents and then stranding them on the planet. Chunk was confronted by Flash III while consuming gems and precious metals in NY, and Chunk sent Flash to the desert planet. Flash convinced Chunk that he would be lauded by the scientific community and absolved of all crimes if he returned the prisoners back to Earth. Chunk was hesitant, but eventually complied. Chunk went to court and was released under Flash's recognizance pending further investigation. Chunk now lives in a mansion formerly occupied by Flash and makes a living by using his power as a "removal service."
