Description
This is my first time tackling a superhero series, so bear with me. Subject to change.

Name: Arthroman
Secret Identity: James Chesape
Team Affiliation: None (Crisis Challengers at times)
Base of Operations: Classified
Powers: Can replicate arthropod abilities from insect flight to spider crawling, telepathic communication with arthropods enhanced by alien suit, able to absorb arthropod DNA
Skills: Fighter, agile and fast, enhanced vision visor on helmet, can adapt to most situations
Weakness: Powers will be lost once suit is removed, so after putting it on again, James will have to get insect DNA again

When he was young, James Chesape would collect insects and spiders and raise them for a time. Although he was unable to explain how, he had a telepathic ability to communicate with the arthropods he would collect and bond with. One day, he saw a meteor crash near his home, and when he went to investigate, he came across an eerie lifeform that fused with his DNA. Unfortunately, he had six insect pets with him nearby at the time (centipede, grasshopper, earthworm, ladybug, spider, and glowworm). As a result of an unexpected DNA fusion from the formless creature, which became a suit, James started to inherit several abilities of many arthropod species and better telepathic bonds with arthropods. He went into hiding, feeling people would see him as a freak, until these abilities helped him save his aunt from bank robbers. Since then, he has become a solo superhero known as Arthroman, taking on certain arthropod abilities based on his desires. Being anti-social, James has no interest in joining other superhero teams, though he has assisted the Crisis Challengers from time to time. James is also learning more and more how to use the suit's strange power.

UPDATE: Changed his origin and name a little
