Powers:
James was born with an X-gene that granted him extraordinary capabilities, his entire body works not unlike a sponge for all sorts of energy. In other words, his body can constantly drain and make use of outside sources of energy, such as the sunlight, radiation or even kinetic energy when he's hit, however, his body does have a self-imposed limit, which protects himself from utter self-destruction. James' goal is to push that limit as far as he can to grow stronger at each fight. By absorbing outside energy, his body assimilates it as his own and thus increases his physical stats as a whole, making him faster, physically mightier, capable of thinking at much higher speeds as well as reacting just as fast, however, there also is a secondary mutation that his constant absorption of energy improves. TNTank can create outbursts out of nowhere, devastating whatever is in front of him with a firepower that could rival the greatest military devices, his blasts consume energy that he can swimmingly recover from the ambient encompassing him, thus making him a scary matchup for most foes.
It is needless to say his entire body can withstand the drawback of such terrifying firepower, meaning his entire structure is much denser than believed, as opposed to what his appearance hints, Boomer's physical prowess far surpasses those of the average human being as he's able to trade blows head-to-head with many of the strongest beings alive and it is entirely possible he'll one day surpass them as he constantly evolves during each fight. His secondary power's destructiveness rivals even his own strength, as his explosions grow more intense and overall stronger as he increases his own power, however, he has a better control of them than media gives him credit for, managing to determine the radius it will effect, to an extent, and the power behind it.
Tank's body can heal at incredible speeds as well, at the cost of energy, which would render him weaker if used all the time. When in the process of healing, his bodily temperature will increase highly, making it unbearable for most people to even come close to him. He can also mimic the heating effect without healing, yet it's not the most painless process.
Ultimately, even if TNTank's body mirrors a sponge in some ways, the different sources of his absorbed energy have different effects on his blasts. So far the known variations of his blast are normal, which happens when he drains kinetic energy or when he simply blasts something, nuclear, when his body sucks radiation and his attacks become extremely more lethal, and heatwaves, when he absorbs too much heat and his explosions become concentrated heat.
Since he cannot fully use his powers at most populated areas and also enjoys a challenging fight, James wears two grenade-shaped gauntlets that greatly hinder his explosions, their sole purpose is restraining him so he can get a hang of his power and avoid hurting others or even himself.
