The Earth-2 criminal gang-leader who uses super-scientific weapons to commit his crimes.
Colonel Edmond H. Future is the "mastermind of the leading crime syndicate in Metropolis," alternately referred to as the "Colonel Future Mob" (SF No.198/2, Nov-Dec 1979: "The Leaning Tower of Metropolis") and the "CF Gang" which "uses spies to steel top-secret blueprints and models from scientific institutes and research labs which their highly skilled engineers turn into elaborate devices for committing crimes" (SF No.220, Jul 1982: "Where Off Earth Are You From?").
Col. Future is the sworn enemy of the Superman of Earth-2 and has attempted his destruction on several occasions.
Determined to halt the interference of the Man of Steel in his criminal enterprises, Col. Future enlists the aid of the Wizard, a powerful magician who casts a spell causing Superman to vanish for an entire year (Act No.484, Jun 1978: "Superman Takes a Wife!").
