As a stowaway on Man O’ War’s trawler, Merry mason had finally escaped her troubled home life, when a blast of Energy X gave the pair of them powers linked to the maritime location. Merry took the name of Sea Urchin, and decided to help Man O’ War safeguard the lives of other children.

Analysis:
Sea Urchin is Man O’ War’s psuedo-sidekick, and while she is cute for a blue fish girl, she isn’t particularly useful. Her bubble attacks can help out a hero stuck in a tougher fight, but Sea Urchin is very weak and can’t take much damage before being knocked out. Her Power Null is occasionally useful, but as it only randomly removes a power, it may not help at all. You’ll often spend more time protecting her or retreating her than you will using her powers to benefit the team. She is too much of a liabilty to occupy a slot on the team, unless you think you will really need her for a mission.
