Geist (Dwayne Geyer) is a fictional character in the DC Comics universe. He was created by Chuck Dixon and Jim Balent, and first appeared in Detective Comics Annual #6 (1993).[citation needed]
First appearing in Detective Comics Annual #6 (1993), Dwayne Geyer gained metahuman abilities during the Bloodlines crossover. After being bitten by the alien Pritor, Geist gains the ability to become invisible.[1] He becomes less visible in dim lighting and completely invisible in bright light.
During the Infinite Crisis event, Geist and the Blood Pack are killed by Superboy-Prime.[2] Geist later appears as a resident of Limbo, a dimension inhabited by forgotten characters where no stories happen. Geist is rescued by Superman and a dimension-crossing ship and helps battle the cosmic threat of Mandrakk.[3]
In Adventure Comics (vol. 2), Geist is reanimated as a member of the Black Lantern Corps. Superboy-Prime destroys Geist using a black power ring, which generates a burst of colored energy that destroys Black Lanterns.[4]
