Toyo Harada  Toyo Harada is a fictional supervillain, who has appeared in various series published by Valiant Comics. Created by writer Jim Shooter and artist Don David Perlin, he is the primary antagonist of Valiant's Harbinger series, as well as a major influence in the larger Valiant Universe. Valiant Entertainment is the current owner of Toyo Harada and the rest of the original Valiant Comics characters. He is the most powerful psionic on Earth. One of two known harbingers to possess the "Omega Power" (the other being Peter Stanchek), Harada commands the full spectrum of psionic abilities, including telepathy, telekinesis, mind-control, and many other deadly talents. Fearing that humanity may eventually destroy itself, Harada decided early in his life to preserve the planet by clandestinely conquering it. To this end, he established the Harbinger Foundation to recruit others with paranormal abilities, whom Harada refers to as "harbingers of the next step in human evolution". He seldom confronts his enemies directly, preferring to leave such dirty-work to his elite harbinger warriors, the "Eggbreakers" (as in the saying, to make an omelette...). With tremendous economic and political clout, Harada seems close to achieving his goals, and is ready to destroy anyone who stands in his way. The great irony is that Harada truly feels he was born to save the human race; in his own mind, he is the hero of the story. But, in his haste to eliminate any opposition to his grand scheme, Toyo Harada has lost his own humanity. Toyo Harada, CEO of Harada Global Conglomerates and the most powerful mentalist in the world, has a vision for a perfect future. Guided for decades by the visions of the mysterious Bleeding Monk, Harada has used his seemingly limitless powers to build his public-facing company into a force that is seen to provide food and medicine to the world's poor. Behind the scenes, however, he's assembled a private army in the form of the Harbinger Foundation, a secret academy built to activate and train young individual psychics called "psiots" that, like himself, exhibit an array of abilities of the mind with extraordinary potential. For decades, Harada's Harbinger Foundation and paramilitary contractor Project Rising Spirit have waged a secret war over these psiots, and, over the years, each collected a small army of empowered children as they sought to inflict their agendas on the world.
