An artificially created humanoid from the Mojoverse, a dimension ruled by the insane television mogul Mojo. Longshot's power is psychometric luck — probability bends in his favor as long as his motives are pure. His mullet, hollow bones, and four fingers mark him as alien, but his optimism and heroism are entirely human.
