Origin[]

Mighty Mite was Mickey, a young American boy living in the city of Rosedale. When his female friend, Teena, invited him to come to her costume party, he dressed up as a superhero named Mighty Mite. When he arrived at the party, he found that the crooks were holding the guests hostage. He managed to defeat the criminals through sheer luck rather than any particular effort, but the guests didn't know that, so he became a town hero.

From that point on, Mickey operated as Mighty Mite 24/7. Teena, who became his girlfriend, frequently accompanied Mickey on his adventures.

Powers and Abilities[]

He remained supernaturally lucky but, to his credit, he tried his best to rise to his reputation and actually put some effort into crime-fighting. On at least one occasion, he demonstrated an ability to make his homemade flying contraption work by sheer force of will.
