'''Arm Fall Off Boy''' ('''Floyd Belkin''') is a [[DC Comics]] [[superhero]] from the 30th century. His first appearance was in ''[[Secret Origins]]'' Vol. 2 #46, (December 1989), he was drawn by [[Curt Swan]]. After [[Zero Hour (comics)|Zero Hour]], the character of Arm Fall Off Boy was briefly reintroduced as '''Splitter'''.

==Character biography==
Arm Fall Off Boy has the ability to detach his own limbs, which he can then use as blunt weapons. His background is not explored in his initial appearances; in ''Legionnaires'' (vol 4) #12, [[Matter-Eater Lad]] claims he gained his powers through carelessness while holding the anti-gravity metal Element 152, but he may not have been serious. In his introduction, he is an applicant at the first Legion tryout, and the first Legion reject.

Following the Zero Hour reboot, the character appears again in ''Legionnaires'' (vol. 4) #43 and is identified as Floyd Belkin of the planet Lallor. Under the name Splitter, Floyd participates in the Legion's tryouts in ''Legionnaires'' #43 and is one of five finalists, but he is denied Legion membership after he panics and literally falls apart during the last test. Later in the comic, he appears as a member of the [[Heroes of Lallor]].

==In other media==
Arm Fall Off Boy appears in issue 16 of the ''Legion of Superheroes in the 31st Century'' comic, which is based on the [[Legion of Super Heroes (TV series)|cartoon series]].<ref>
