Hmm. Well, remember a comic book character is not nit-picked or based on how well its comic book powers are ''scientifically accurate'' to real world physics; you can be creative with it. The main thing about a char is his own story about how he attained powers and his struggles, views, and personality etc, to be what he is--a hero, villian etc.. Heck, you could say his black hole is mystical based if you wanted.
Something that comes to mind off the wall, is I'd say maybe his molecules are on a higher dimensional frequency( not yet sure how that happened), and that alters his subatomic structure. Which would explain how he could have a minature black hole inside him. He could have maybe self-molecular control rather than molecular control over other things.
Good idea though- I always support new ideas..maybe one day someone from kmc will create the next big superhero in marvel or DC.
How about..... he's not a guy with a black hole in his chest, he's a sentient black hole that uses control over light and matter to create an artificial body around himself in order to interact with humanity?
Just another unique freak of the universe.... maybe all black holes are sentient and this guy is the first to be born in hundreds of thousands of years. The other holes are so old that they couldn't care less about organic beings as their lifespans are barely a moment in time to them ... but this guy is a new born and is curious about the beings in the solar system he was born into.
Later he could find out that his destiny is to grow in the Sol system (our solar system) eventually growing to a size where his presence would destroy it.
I guess having a black hole in your chest is more common than once thought.
I actually think Scoob's idea far surpasses my own, but then that character would be too powerful to be interesting. If Iron-Man can't beat him 3/10, he's too powerful imo.
I got an idea for a character who is a regular beat cop who basically possesses the power of complete and utter invulnerability; and that's it. No super strength or speed or anything, but he can't be physically harmed by anything at all...ever. He can suffocate or drown, though.
I can think up a thousand stories of a cop running around jumping off friggin' skyscrapers after a drug dealer or some such else nonsense. (please log in to view the image)

I think now in comics, powers are so rarely original that character and backstory play so much in how cool a character is, and the power isn't necessarily the most important thing...
