Mark Horley was a biochemist and criminologist whose great intellect and excess of ego led him to experiment with his own psyche trying to suppress the darkest and most aggressive part of the human personality (the Id according to Sigmund Freud's theories). But instead of that what happened was that his personality split:
By day he continued to be the attractive, charismatic and successful criminologist Mark Horley, but every night he underwent a transformation not only mentally, but also physically, which turned him into a brutal creature, vicious and criminal, whom the news dubbed "The Monster of Manhattan". Young New York hero Black Hood discovered Horley's double life and confronted the Monster, but it took the help of the entire Tyro Team to stop the threat.
POWERS & WEAPONS
When Mark Horley transforms into the Monster of Manhattan, his body increases in size, becoming inhumanly strong and resilient. His healing factor also increases exponentially, making him able to heal from any wound in a very short time. Unfortunately, the transformation also heightens Horley's most primal instincts, turning him into a very dangerous creature of pure desire and aggressiveness.
