Backstory: Ruler of Uranus. Uvo was a bomb happy war lover whose greatest joy was the nuclear weapon. Blowing up Uranus regularly to practice blowing up other planets, Uvo had been spreading war and devastation across the galaxy.

Having tried and failed to devastate the Earth in the past thanks to the efforts of Hippolyta and her Amazons, Uvo dreamed of nuking that world. Practicing in the hopes of fulfilling his dream.

When efforts to probe Uranus’s deep dark crevices for uranium began showing no results due to those mines being thoroughly drained, Uvo decided to turn his efforts to Earth once more. Intending to steal all of the worlds untapped Uranium deposits for the sake of arming new warheads.

Through the use of their calcifying technology to mask their presence on the planet, Uvo would not be satisfied until he got all of that precious uranium shoved back up to Uranus and he could begin delivering nukes to any and all.
