“Doomed to die in the fiery pits of the sun, Jim Wilson is saved by a strange twist of fate, and instead of perishing, he comes back to earth in the form of Ajax, the fastest and strongest man alive.” Jim Wilson is the assistant of Dr. Elbe, and the pair are preparing to be the first men to step foot on Venus, but their rocket is sabotaged and crashes into the sun. However, “when the zero acid from the fuel gushed over him, it causes the tissues in his body to change and alter. Instead of destroying the Earth-man, the blistering flames give him all the mighty powers of the sun.” Returning to Earth to settle the score with the man who sabotaged his rocket, Ajax stays on Earth as a policeman to fight crime by day. His many "sun-powers" include the ability to generate great heat, flight, and super-strength, but the night renders him powerless.
