Electro (Marvel)



Electro started out as Max Dillon, an average, but greedy electrical worker, who, in a freak accident, was transformed into a human generator, able to produce as much as 10,000 volts a minute. Calling himself Electro, Dillon used his powers for criminal activities, and was often confronted by Spider-man, making them enemies.

Electro's powers include being able to project blasts of lightning from his body, as well as create force-fields and manipulate electrical devices. He can charge himself to nearly unlimited power levels, making him one of the most dangerous villains in the Marvel universe.

He is however, not very intelligent, as well as egotistical and a bit crazy. He can also be shorted-out with large amounts of water, and can be easily taken out with a punch (if you can get close enough).

Electro joined several other supervillains, led by Doctor Octopus, in a group known as the Sinister Six, to attack Spider-man.

Electro has appeared in several Spider-man TV shows and video games.
