HISTORY

Joey Monteleone is the younger brother of the Candyman, a major supplier of drugs in the Keystone City area. Tar Pit has the ability to project his consciousness into pretty much anything he chooses, and tends to use this ability for less than honourable purposes. He is currently 'stuck' in a body made of viscous asphalt with which he can wreak major damage. He went on a spree, attempting to steal the trophy cup belonging to the Keystone Combines ice hockey team, but was stopped by the Flash (Wally West) and Captain Cold and is currently incarcerated in Iron Heights.
