Description[]

Flare has wings and a disc launcher tail. He can also be combined with Spark and Blaster to create Dynamo.

Background[]

Flare emerged from the crater on the Slizer Planet when a meteor struck the planet on New Year's Eve 2000, possibly as a mutant form of Rock/Granite. Flare and the other mutant Slizers attack the surviving heroic Slizers, seeking supremacy over the planet. He is characterized as having sharp vision which he uses to scan the planet, and his flying skills help him evade meteorite showers.
