Elongated Man
CharacterDescription
Ralph Dibny, the Elongated Man, is a DC Comics hero first appearing in The Flash #112 in 1960. After discovering that carnival contortionists all consumed a drink called Gingold, Dibny isolated the active compound and gained the ability to stretch and reshape his body to extreme lengths. Unlike many heroes, he operated openly under his own name and cultivated a public reputation as one of the DC Universe's most skilled detectives, regularly collaborating with the Justice League and working alongside his wife Sue Dibny on investigations.
