==Fictional character biography==
'''Keith Kenyon''' is a criminal [[scientist]]. He drinks a gold-based serum he has been working on. This grants him superhuman strength and invulnerability. He also exhibits a golden glow.

Gold being yellow gives him a great advantage over the superhero [[Green Lantern]], as his powers do not work on that color. However, he is defeated while trying to steal sunken gold needed for his endeavors.
