Derek is a human criminal. He is first seen in a flashback in "Chapter 1".
Appearance[]
Derek has brown skin and black hair. He is quite bulky in build; something his companion Dr. Bluestein comments on when he tells him to loose weight.
Background[]
Five years prior to the events of the series, he and Bluestein were chasing Gary Goodspeed through a rainy night in New York City. They wanted a diamond Gary had, and which they claimed to be theirs. Gary evaded them by fleeing into a bar, where he first met Quinn Ergon.
Alternate versions[]
Derek from Nightfall's timeline.
In "The First Times They Met", it is revealed that in Nightfall's timeline, Derek was a member of the Infinity Guard and good friends with her timeline's Gary Goodspeed.
