According to Wikipedia:
m
"In the late 19th century, a wealthy merchant named Cyrus Gold is murdered and his body disposed of in Slaughter Swamp, near Gotham City. Fifty years later, the corpse is reanimated as a huge shambling figure (composed partly of the swamp matter that has accumulated around the body over the decades) with almost no memory of its past life"
All-American Comics #61 (1944)
Solomon Grundy"s 1st Appearance
"He
shows up in a hobo camp and, when asked about his name, one of the few things
he can recall is that he was "born on a Monday". One of the men at the camp mentions
the nursery rhyme character Solomon Grundy (who was born on a Monday),
and Gold adopts the moniker."
m
"Solomon
Grundy has superhuman strength and endurance...He is virtually indestructible
thanks to the elemental energy that imbues his form with pseudo-life. He is nearly
invulnerable to physical, magical, and energy attacks and he is not affected by
fire or cold...He does not need to eat, sleep, or breathe, although oddly he was
once choked to death by Green Arrow"
