Origins:
 
Robert Markham was born in New York City. He had an unprecedented viral infection that caused competitive inhibition of certain segments in his DNA in the process of replication. He consulted Dr. Peter Alraune, who prescribed an experimental, untested drug. The drug reacted with Markham's DNA, causing a freakish appearance and the inability to sleep. Markham discovered that he no longer needed sleep, and that he had developed a highly destructive psionic ability. He named himself Morpheus, after the god of dreams. Crazed, Morpheus sought to punish Dr. Alraune, which brought him to the attention of Moon Knight.
