Tempest (1) - S1-E21
Continuity mistake: The way the pillar is on top of Lionel changes in the scene. In the first shot, he's on his side and it lands on his hip. In the next shot he's now on his back and the pillar is going somewhat across his body. In the wide shot of him as the roof falls, the pillar is below his belt, almost perpendicular to his body. Then back to being on his stomach and part of his chest.
Answer: No, there is no such character in the comics. He's a "meteor-freak" like all the other baddies on the show. The sound has something to do with him vibrating his vocal cords very fast to create a high-pitched squeal.
