Character history
Animated series
In the animated series, nothing is revealed about Killowat's origin, his career as a superhero and how he came to be contacted by the Teen Titans and initiated as an Honorary Titan. He lived on a solar panel farm, where he apparently sustained himself on the electircity converted from solar energy.
As a young superhero, he became a target for the Brotherhood of Evil. Control Freak attacked him, but his auxiliaries from the TV Dimension proved useless against Killowat's power. Just before Control Freak would face extreme retribution, however, the Puppet King intervened and tackled Killowat. Killowat was added as a flash-frozen trophy into the Brotherhood's victory collection inside their Paris base, but the Titans who escaped the simultaneous world-wide attacks joined together in a final assault. During the fight, Más y Menos managed to unfreeze the Titans already captured, who promptly joined the fray; Killowat dealt out his share by absorbing Overload's electric body, leaving only his heartpiece, the circuit card. Following their victory, he socialized with his fellow Titans in Titans Tower and later participated in the recapture of Doctor Light.
Teen Titans Go!
Killowat's origins are detailed in the Teen Titans Go! comic series (issue #48). He originated from a parallel Earth, where he was a member of the Teen Titans as well, but his home town had been overrun by the local villains (most particularly Slade). Killowat came into this universe when Raven, while meditating, heard his cry for help from his own universe, where he had been worn down by his opponent, and in order to save him, she pulled him into her own.
Killowat assisted the Teen Titans during many crises, but Raven eventually managed to find a way to mystically send him back to his own timeline, but erred and stranded him in yet another reality where he had to fight evil versions of the Teen Titans, the Teen Tyrants, and find allies in good versions of the Brotherhood of Evil, there named the Brotherhood of Justice. Eventually, due to the combined efforts of Raven and Herald, Killowat was finally restored to his own world.
