"Lester Harris" was the name given to a strange infant, found on the doorstep of Dr. Henry Harris. Harris, a leading genetic researcher at Axiom Labs in Megalopolis' Foundry district, kept the baby's origin a secret, and raised the boy as his own, while secretly studying him.

Harris soon discovered that by some unknown process, his new son's human DNA had somehow been merged or spliced with reptilian DNA, giving him extraordinary speed, physical stamina. At first he thought this was some natural mutation, but further research began to show that he may have been artificially altered as an embryo. From a very young age, Henry Harris began to test Lester's abilities. The doctor also home schooled the boy as much as he knew about science and science history, and Lester grew up happy like that, helping his adoptive father in the lab.

Dr. Harris began to become concerned for Lester's socialization, and began to consider enrolling him in a local high school. Lester had already begun to show a desire to use his powers to serve the city as a superhero, and the two developed Lester's Skink persona and costume to aid in this, to keep his private life and super heroic life separate.

While out one night patrolling the city on one of his first times out, Lester, now garbed as The Skink, returned to the lab to find it ablaze and vandalized, and his beloved father and mentor murdered. Security, some police, and reporters unfortunately arrived right as The Skink moved the doctor from the burning building, mistook him for the perpetrator of the crime, and The Skink has had a dicey reputation with the law ever since, at least some of them. He now tries to pick up the pieces of his life and continue on somehow.
