Negative Man (Doom Patrol)

Negative Man (real name Lawrence "Larry" Trainor) is a fictional character, appearing as a supporting character in the live-action series Doom Patrol with Elasti-Woman, Crazy Jane, Cyborg, Robotman and Madame Rouge.
Originally as a pilot, Larry had an accident, which caused him to fuse with a Negative Spirit and radiate his body with radioactive energy, leaving him disfigured, gaining powers thanks to his sudden fusion with a Negative Spirit. While living in the Doom Manor with his companions, Larry became even more connected to the spirit during his bizarre adventures to save Niles Caulder. Larry attempted to connect with his family, however the spirit soon after left, leaving Larry with a descendant named Keeg, whom Larry took as his son and, along with his friends, reformed the Doom Patrol.
He is portrayed on set by Matthew Zuk and is voiced by Matt Bomer, who portrays him as a human in flashbacks and other versions.

====With the Negative Spirit====
*Metahuman physiology: Larry Trainor was "accidentally" sent into a field of cosmic radiation while testing an experimental jet in the stratosphere. When he crash landed back on earth his physiology had changed permanently and requires the Chief's bandages to protect those around him from his radiation.
**Radiation production: Larry has the ability to release the Negative Spirit, a being composed of an as of yet unidentifiable form of radioactive energy. The being has it's own free will, and can come out at any time it pleases, though this is evidently easier when Larry is under stress. While the being is out, Larry goes unconscious, his mind inhabiting a dream world created by the Negative Spirit.
**Flight: The Negative Spirit can fly at an unknown speed.
**Dimensional warping: The Negative Spirit inside Larry was able to transport and take Larry and company between the White Space and an hallucinatory dimensions created by Mr. Nobody, before also taking them and the town of Cloverton back to the normal world.
**Delayed aging: Larry's powers seem to have granted him some degree of slowed aging as he possesses the same body fifty years later as he did when the accident occured with no sign of change.
**Possession: The Negative Spirit can take possession of both people and objects. Obviously, it took possession of Larry Trainor but, it was also able to possess a device built by Niles Caulder. This device was designed to allow the entity to communicate with humans but, the machine was overloaded by its power and the spirit was enjected back into Larry.
**Mind melding: The Spirit was able to connect Cliff and Jane’s minds together. This allowed Cliff to enter her mind, to interact with her alters and help her, after she had fallen into a deep coma.
**Phasing: The Negative Spirit can phase through solid matter such as walls and people.
**Temperature immunity: Larry is shown to be able to withstand extreme temperatures, ranging from -100 to 220 degrees Fahrenheit.
====With Keeg====
*Flight: Keeg can fly at an unknown speed.
===Abilities===
*Expert pilot: Larry was once one of the top pilots in the U.S. Air Force. He was chosen to fly the most advanced and most experimental jets and planes.
===Weaknesses===
*Power instability: Larry is not able to control when the Negative Spirit comes out, and when it does, it leaves his body unconscious, while his mind is forced into a vision created by the spirit. While this vision is typically torturous, it doesn't have to be, as the Negative Spirit does sometimes try to make it pleasant for Larry.
