Former member of the Liberty Squad, under the Maxi name of Maximum Man (possibly the origin of the term.) An homage to Captain Marvel, Kyle was a timid accountant until he spoke a secret word which granted him the power of "Indian Fakirs", transforming him into a Maxi with enhanced strength, invulnerability and the power of flight. In his old age, Kyle has forgotten the word, and spends most of his time wandering around Tranquility, reading dictionaries aloud in any language to rediscover it. He is also fond of playing chess with his former arch-nemesis, Henry Hyde. As of the fifth issue, Kyle has found out the word, which is "Hecatean".
