The Great Ten's Yeti

I found this "micro-hero" from here, where yeti appears to be the member of a superhero team called China's Great Ten. What comic book is that from?

Turns out it's from DC's 52.

The Great Ten is what a superhero team might be like if sponsored by the government of the People's Republic of China. A roll call reveals some fantastic names, many as if they were literally translated from the Chinese: Accomplished Perfect Physician, August General in Iron, Socialist Red Guardsman, Mother of Champions, Ghost Fox Killer, Celestial Archer, Immortal Man in Darkness, Seven Deadly Brothers, Thundermind, and Shaolin Robot.

The Yeti is a reserve member of the team. A genetic scientist named Hu Wei unlocked a gene that can turn people into monsters. After self-experimenting, he can now "hulk" out as a yeti. Unfortunately, he's filled with rage when he yetis out and has to wear a kind of electro-amulet to keep from killing everybody. Sadly, Hu Wei was killed by supervillain Black Adam in issue # 50.



It's not a huge loss for the Great Ten, IMHO, since at least once before, Hu Wei discarded the amulet for some crazy reason and went on a rampage, killing 30 people. The Accomplished Perfect Physician had to go stop him and make him put his amulet back on. He was something of a liability, I figure.

Just wear the amulet, yeti! Is it that hard?

For the curious, here's a gallery of some of the characters from Great Ten, but not yeti.

Looking back on this blog, I now realize that:

This picture is of The Yeti's fight with Black Adam.

The Great Ten's Yeti is the first to say Snnaaaurr.

This is the cover of one of the issues of 52 that he's in.
