© Juke Box Productions AstroFacts Status: Active Affiliation: Ambassador of the Kyurri Personal Data Height: 15' Weight: 800-900 lbs (estimate) Eyes: not visible behind the mask Hair: none displayed InfoDump Appearances (in Publication Order): Kurt Busiek's Astro City Vol. 2 #1 Event Timeline Ambassador Telseth A 70-foot-tall intergalactic diplomat from another civilization. Telseth claims to be a representative of "the star-spanning Kyurri," interested in peaceful contact. History In 2013, a giant door mysteriously materialized over the Gaines River one day. When it opened, it was the being humanity would soon come to know as Telseth who stepped through, announcing his diplomatic intent and requesting a human guide to Earth's cultures and customs. Ben Pullam volunteered for the position. ("Through Open Doors (Part One)") Powers He has not displayed any innate powers, but the doors which he used to arrive on Earth were unaffected by the combined powers of Honor Guard, Winged Victory, American Chibi, and E.A.G.L.E., suggesting technological capabilities which are considerably beyond current Terran science. Observations He carries a box-shaped instrumentation device whose full range of functions is a mystery. During initial contact with the citizens of Astro City, he used it for lowering his voice volume. Could be a common amplifier, or it could be the device for controlling all the functions of his uniform/body. Speculations, Theories Given the aspects of his costume -- no head behind the mask, everything else covered in drapery, fabric, and ornaments -- it all might be a ruse. A means for a probably alien species to portray a comfortable, human-like appearance.
