Negative Man fought against Doctor Death's efforts, but Death captured him and secured Trainor inside of a lead-lined cell. He manipulated Larry to use his powers in an effort to destabilize the American government by driving several political figureheads irrevocably insane. Doctor Death learned of the charter and arranged to sabotage Trainor's plane, stranding him on the island. Some time later, Larry accepted a commission to fly a plane towards a dangerous, volcanic island. Death escaped and swore revenge against the Negative Man. He rebelled against the maniacal genius and briefly thwarted his plans for global domination. Trainor learned about Doctor Drew's true identity and his covert attempt to take control of the world. During this time, he learned more about the strange energy powers – he referred to his astral self as the Negative Man.īefore long, a physician known only as Doctor Drew offered Larry a job as his assistant. Shunned by society, he kept to himself and took to living inside of a meager rooming house. Trainor became bitter and despondent at the thought of living the remainder of his life as some grotesque mummy. In order to leave the quarantine and operate in human society again – Larry had to wear the bandages from head to toe at all times. Niles Caulder finally approached Larry (in the guise of helpful stranger) and provided him special radiation-proof plastic bandages. Physicians placed him into quarantine inside of a lead-lined contamination cell. The exposure to the deadly radiation left him hideously deformed, with glowing, translucent skin. Shortly after the strange incident, Larry checked into a hospital. As the energy, he guided the search plane to safety. An intense desire to aid the beleaguered craft passed through Larry's mind when suddenly, a bizarre radioactive energy being flew outward from his body with his mind and consciousness residing in the being while his body left behind was a husk. It attempted to land near the X-19, but suffered from a malfunctioning landing strut. Upon landing the jet, Trainor noticed a nearby search plane coming into view. Larry awakened in time to prevent the X-19 from crashing into the ground. Earth's gravity eventually pulled the X-19 back into the atmosphere, where it began spiraling back down to Earth. Falling unconscious, Larry drifted through the stratospheric wave belts for several hours. However, Niles Caulder (in his plan to create a team of super powered misfits) caused the jet's guidance systems to break down, sending Larry into a field of deadly radiation. Larry put the plane through its paces and successfully broke Earth's atmosphere. When Larry had to fly the experimental X-19, a suborbital jet aircraft.
