Powers
Razor, because of his Raptor armor, has a vast array of superhuman abilities such as the power of flight. Razor also possesses strength, durability, stamina and endurance far beyond normal levels, but to what degree has yet to be determined. He can fire laser blasts from both the amulet in his chest and his helmet's visor, and he can survive in space for extensive periods of time. Razor can use his amulet to form force shields in defense of himself, or another in close proximity. It can also be assumed, like the hero Darkhawk, if Razor was injured and transformed back into his original state, he would be completely restored upon returning to his armored form. It is also likely Razor is either extremely long-lived or immortal.

Razor presumably has the ability of using his amulet to open a portal into the Negative Zone, as does Talon, so it is possible he can open other doorways to other places as well.

Abilities
Razor is a highly skilled flyer and combatant - both armed and unarmed

Weapons
Razor's armor enables him the use of a multitude of weapons, including missiles and laser cannons as well as his basic razor wings and slashing claws. With its reconfiguration mode, it is entirely possible the combination and varieties of weaponry could be endless. Razor has a grappling hook and cable which he can use as an offensive weapon, or shape into the form of a winged bird for scouting purposes, and he can tune his helmet to see through the creature's eyes. Razor can also implement a camouflage using his armor allowing him to walk freely among others by disguising himself in any form he wishes.

Paraphernalia
Razor is in possession of an amulet which is his direct link to the Raptor armor he wears.

First Appearance
War of Kings: Ascension #1 (2009)

Significant Issues
Returned to his armored form after sixty centuries (War of Kings: Ascension #1, 2009); Fought alongside Talon until they were in possession of the Cosmic Control Rod (War of Kings: Ascension #2, 2009)

Awakened from his sixty-one century slumber by his fellow Raptor, Talon, Razor briefly inhabited the armor once worn by the Earth hero known as Darkhawk. Both the armor and amulet that's a direct link to it were designed specifically for Razor, so for all intents and purposes, Razor is a physical duplicate of Darkhawk – only with impure intentions.

Razor was unsure of what the universe had become in his absence, but Talon remained by his side to fill in the gaps, including the fact they were the only two active members of The Fraternity of Raptors left. Razor picked up where Darkhawk left off and helped Talon dispatch the forces of Catastrophus up to, and including, the Insect King himself. Still unsure what their business was in the Negative Zone, Razor's mission became clearer when he laid eyes on the Cosmic Control Rod. He and Talon seized the rod, even as Darkhawk fought to regain control over his armor, and traveled to the Negative Zone prison – once used to imprison those individuals with power who opposed the Superhuman Registration Act – and used the Cosmic Control Rod to strike a bargain with Blastaar. The savage king of the Negative Zone immediately turned on his benefactors, and fought them until the Cosmic Control Rod was wrested from his grasp. Razor and Talon convinced Blastaar to do their bidding and aid the mad emperor of the Shi'ar, Vulcan. Talon and Razor soon departed to carry out other objectives, leaving Razor in the midst of the Shi'ar people to carry out an assassination. Disguising himself as one of their kind to walk freely among them, Razor managed to creep close enough to Lilandra Neramani and shot her with a deadly laser blast at a time when she was about to take control of the Shi’ar away from Vulcan.

It was only after Razor seemingly completed his mission, Chris Powell, the Earth hero known as Darkhawk, fought his way back into the armor – expelling Razor once more.
