Despero is an alien warlord, and was the undefeated champion of 92 Star Systems prior to his journey to the Solar System.
Physical appearance
Despero has a tall muscular figure with vivid purple skin. He has a squat head with no hair, instead sporting a large fin in the middle. Notable features in his face are the absence of a nose (and any nasal cavities) and a third eye above the other two, though he keeps it closed when he does not use it to access his powers.
As a gladiator, he has battle-armor ranging from his left shoulder to his entire right arm.[1]
History
|
Despero was presented holographic images of Earth's greatest champions, displayed to him by L-Ron, with intentions to mount their heads on his wall.[1]

Powers and abilities
Despero possesses immense strength and endurance, and is considered the strongest fighter in 92 star systems. His third eye, located above the other two, allows him to put people in a catatonic state.[1] He is able to understand spoken English, backing down after L-Ron instructed him not to continue fighting against Billy Batson or Mal Duncan.
