Great Lakes Avengers Assemble ?!

Yesterday I introduced my supers resurrection house rule so for today I thought I'd give stats to a character that will never need it. I really like Mr. Immortal feel a weird connection to him. Despite facing depression and pain (because dying really hurts), he became a hero instead of a villain. That takes a strong will. 

While most of his appearances have been in the comics, he also appeared as a client in the She-Hulk series. This version wasn't very heroic, but was entertaining.

Craig Hollis is a mutant with a troubled past. He discovered his powers when he attempted suicide. While he can die, he automatically resurrects and heals any damage. Interestingly enough his regeneration only works if he's killed. He heals non-fatal injuries at the normal rate.

Dubbing himself Mister Immortal, Hollis decided to fight crime. Immediately being shot in the head on his first attempt he recruited other oddities and formed the Great Lakes Avengers. The team has had several variations of that name and are considered a joke by most of the superhero community. Despite that, they keep trying.

For years he maintained a friendship with the cosmic entity known as the Death Urge, whom he nicknamed D'urge. While some thought D'urge was his imaginary friend, the being was actually preparing Hollis for eternal life as he'd evolved past death.
