what new power or trait his resurrection decides to give him. Due to the tektites in his bloodstream, Shelley can detect and be detected by others who have tektites, with their technology noticeably reacting to each other the closer they get. His "tektite field" can also interact with another's, increasing their power or causing interference. During the crossover DC One Million, Mitch Shelley was seen alive in the 853rd century without having aged. In this future timeline, Shelley wielded a device called a Resurrector that could instantly kill him while allowing him to choose what new power he would have after his next resurrection. The Resurrector also allowed him to keep the "default" powers of superhuman strength and flight. The New 52 version of Resurrection Man owes his powers entirely to tektites and never lived past lives. Other versions Elseworlds During the run of Resurrection Man, Abnett and Lanning also wrote an Elseworlds graphic novel called The Superman Monster which retold the story of Frankenstein as a Superman story. This featured an actual "resurrection man" (i.e. a body-snatcher) who was drawn to closely resemble Mitch Shelley.
