Bio: Justin Gaines is an artist, metahuman, and former student of Smallville High. In 2001, Justin had been involved in a hit-and-run accident that had left him without the use of his hands. Five months later, in early 2002, Justin had been in recovery, when he'd found that he could move things with his mind. Angry that the surgeon who'd operated on him had failed to save his hands, he'd used his newfound talent to sever the surgeon's hands, making it look like a freak accident. He'd then returned to school, where'd begun a romance with Chloe Sullivan, opening up enough to reveal what he could do with his mind. However, things had soured once he'd learned that it had been Principal Kwan's car that had hit him the night of his accident. He'd used his telekinesis to kill Principal Kwan with his own car, though it had eventually been discovered that Kwan's son Danny had actually been driving the car that night. Chloe had been horrified to realize that it had been Justin that had killed Principal Kwan, and Justin had turned on her, attempting to use his telekinesis to kill her too. Fortunately, she'd been saved by Clark Kent, and Justin had been institutionalized in a psychiatric ward, presumably Belle Reve.
