BRIEF Bio: Evan lived in a smaller rural town in California growing up. He wasn't doing anything with his life until he gained powers from a magical coin he had purchased for his coin collecting mother. After gaining his powers he got in shape quick after years of letting go after playing baseball in high school. After three months he quit his day job at Burger Queen and came up with the alias Midas since he could touch things and turn them to gold, moving to Astro City in hopes of becoming a member of the Honor Guard one day. Since moving to Astro City and operating as Midas, Evan has had run ins with both Boomerang and the Metropolitan while living in an apartment in Keifer Square. His address being 281 apartment 4, in the Marz apartment complex.

Notes: The closest thing Midas comes to is Colossus from the X-Men franchise. Ya know, if Colossus could touch stuff and also make it metal like himself... LOL. However Evan doesn't grow a foot in height when transforming, I always thought that was weird about Colossus. His address is a nod to Green Lantern's from Earth being in sector 2814 and my favorite writer who introduced my favorite Lantern [Kyle Rayner], Ron Marz.
