History: (Ravage 2099#24 (fb))- In the mid-20th century, Atrin was a nuclear physicist working on creating the first atomic weapons. While his crew was looking over the flash zone, he got separated from the rest of the scientists. They continued the testing, even though they knew he was stuck there. The radiation granted him many powers, but changed his appearance. Since that time, he had created many Valley Of The Beasts.
(Ravage 2099#24)- After his gang was defeated by Ravage and Ferra, a biker stumbled onto Atrin. The biker went to attack him, but Atrin offered him another shot at Ravage, then horribly mutated him. When Ravage found his way to one of his Valley of the Beasts and went to investigate, Atrin captured Ferra in a "featureless limbo". Ravage confronted Atrin, but was attacked from behind by the biker from earlier. Ravage easily took care of the guy, much to Atrin's joy. Ravage looked to continue the pounding on Atrin, but Atrin told him of his past and how he was stuck between dimensions, not being able to interact with anything. All he wanted was some entertainment, which Ravage's brutality could provide. Ferra alerted Ravage to the fact he was seemingly right above her, and Ravage crashed through the ground to rescue his friend. When he returned, he smashed a rock over Atrin's head, killing him. The creatures of the Valley then gathered to build him a stone grave, while Ravage and Ferra returned to their journey. The creatures knew he was there the whole time, but just never acknowledged him.
Comments: Created by Pat Mills, Tony Skinner and Joe Bennett.
At the date of his death, Atrin would have been close to 200 years old, making him one of the very few 2099 characters around from the "Heroic Age".
The "featureless limbo" that Ferra was caught in... An underground cave with a blindfold over her eyes.
