About Ragman (1976)
This DC mini-series first introduces readers to Rory Regan, a junk/antique dealer who shows more kindness to his fellow man than is necessary. When he tries to save his father and friends, Rory apparently gains the physical abilities of the men when they accidently are electrocuted. He uses a suit of rags from his father to fight for further justice for the people he helps daily. The character receives an updated/re-booted origin in the 1991 Ragman series.
