Overview
B'arzz O'oomm is the Green Beetle, a Reach warrior originally from Mars.
History
An archeologist on his homeworld of Mars, B'arzz discovered a Reach Scarab during a dig. The alien weapon bonded to his spine and took control of him, turning the Martian into an unwilling agent of the invaders.
Green Beetle was sent to Earth to earn the trust of the Justice League and help destroy them from within. In time, the plot was discovered and B'arzz was freed from the Reach's control in a magical ritual.
Green Beetle attempted to assist the Team in fighting the Reach, but his scarab was destroyed in combat with Black Beetle.

Abilities
Weaknesses
- Vulnerability to Fire: Martians are much more vulnerable to fire than the average Earth human. At times this has been portrayed as physical, psychological, or a combination of the two. The effect of this is to strip any Martian of their powers as they involuntarily lose control of their body. Despite wearing armor, Green Beetle is still vulnerable to fire.
