History[]
Uno was raised from childhood by a secret organization named the Q Society to be the champion of the Aztec god Quetzalcoatl to battle their enemy, the Aztec god Tezcatlipoca. He was given a magical suit of armor that bestowed many abilities, complementing Uno's peak human mental and physical abilities. After his training was completed, he entered the United States and assumed the identity of recently deceased physician Curt Falconer. Aztek later joined the Justice League, but resigned when it was revealed that one of the mysterious benefactors of the Q Society was the supervillain Lex Luthor. He was later blinded helping the League save the Earth in a battle against the planet-destroying machine Mageddon (apparently the Tezcatlipoca that the cult was referring to all along). Aztek ultimately sacrificed himself to allow Superman the chance to destroy Mageddon/Tezcatlipoca, during the World War III story arc.
