Electro was once again brought out of retirement by the Rose, who offered Dillon the chance at an experimental procedure to greatly enhance his abilities in exchange for his services as an underworld enforcer. Dillon agreed, sensing the opportunity to rise above his past failures. After undergoing the procedure and dispatching several members of the True Believers, an offshoot of the Hand at the request of the Rose, Dillon returned to his original plan of taking over the New York City power supply. Once again defeated by Spider-Man, who had donned an insulated suit, a frustrated Dillon threw himself into the Hudson River, apparently killing himself. [22] Sinister Twelve [ ]

MARVEL LEGENDS SPIDER-MAN RETRO WAVE ELECTRO

Electrostatic Energy Generation: Electro possesses the ability to bodily generate electrostatic energy which he could release or harness for a number of effects. He was powered by the micro-fine rhythmic muscle contractions that normally regulate body temperature. His body could generate electricity at a rate of about 10,000 volts per minute, up to his maximum storage capacity of 10,000,000 volts. At that point, his body automatically stopped producing electricity. As he expended his electrostatic energy, his body automatically began to recharge the stores. Electro could mentally control the amount of electricity he discharges, anywhere from a single volt to his full 10,000,000-volt charge at once. At ten to thirty feet, his maximum charge was more than enough to kill a man. Electro could also use his body as a transformer, touching an outside power source (such as a generator) and channeling it through his body for use. The amount of electricity he could transform above his body's maximum storage capacity is unknown. Electrical Detection: Electro's electrical powers also granted him certain sensory and manipulative abilities. By "feeling" the course of electricity through the circuitry of any electrically powered device, Electro could override the system and make the device obey his mental commands. Electro could disconnect alarm systems, control computers in a limited way, or overload any electrically controlled system that was insufficiently shielded.What's worse is Hasbro offered this figure in two versions - one normal and one in Emma's diamond form - and both were disasters. Shortly after gaining his powers, Magneto asked Electro to join the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. Magneto rejected him, saying this was not the mutant gene, but remarked that another kind of latent gene may have been activated and Electro had the makings of a supervillain akin to any Brotherhood member. [37] After the events of The Six, Electro was hired by Doctor Doom amongst others to disrupt the wedding of Reed Richards and Susan Storm. [15] Later he was defeated by Daredevil and sought the help of other super-villains when he created his own Emissaries of Evil. [2] Ignominious Defeats [ ] Electro was also a member of Mysterio's Sinister Seven, created to combat Spider-Man's insane, homicidal clone, Kaine. However, Kaine disappeared and with no further need to keep the group together, it was disbanded, and Dillon returned to his self-imposed exile. [21] Upgrade [ ]

MARVEL COMIC-INSPIRED DESIGN: This Retro 375 Collection Marvel’s Electro figure has premium design, detail, and articulation for posing and display in a Marvel collection.Immunity to Electricity: Electro's body was immune to the effects of its electricity and that of other sources as well. Hence, Electro could not be electrocuted no matter how great the voltage. Because of Spider-Man having subdued Electro and turned him into his personal puppet, Max lost credibility as a supervillain. He decided to perform an act similar to when he caused the massive breakout in the Raft and stormed the Conway Penitentiary. However, his powers went out of control and destroyed the entire building.
