Biography
Delhurst was a rival scientist of Professor Neil Hamilton. Although he was an oncologist, Delhurst instead used his research find a cure for baldness, as both he and his assistant Brett were balding and Delhurst himself wore a toupee. After animal rights activists led by Mark Hales smashed his lab, Delhurst became covetous of Hamilton's mysterious growth formula, which he wished to use to become rich and famous.

Following Hamilton's dismissal from the university and the deaths of Brett as well as Hamilton's own assistant, Professor Delhurst helped himself to his rival's supply of the formula and experimented with it, testing it out on some cancer cells from a diseased dog. Delhurst cut his finger, getting the mixture of cancer cells and growth formula into his bloodstream. He thereafter died a slow gruesome death by mutating into a puddle of dog cancer.
