One day, while working on an experiment with Norman Osborn, there was a lab explosion of radiation that paralyzed him. Osborn was forced to use mechanical tentacles to continue his work in secrecy. Because of the years of hiding and being forced to work tirelessly for Osborn, he turned to a life of crime and became one of Spider-Man's main villains.

Weaknesses
Equipment
- Mechanical Arms: He has telepathic control over four prehensile, electronic arms that are attached to his torso. Even when the harness is detached from his torso, he maintains a level of telepathic control over the arms, even over great distances. The arms, which have pincers at the end, can extend to 24 feet at the maximum and are capable of superhuman strength and enhanced reaction time. He can use them to lift a maximum of three tons per arm, though at least one arm must support his body, and he can use them similarly to legs to lift his body and move rapidly over a variety of terrains and also to scale walls. He wears an armored body suit because, while capable of dishing out an enhanced beating, his body is that of a regular human and has become increasingly worn down by the constant fighting and injuries he has sustained. This suit adds an additional four cybernetic arms. His telepathic control also extends over an army of octobots, small, eight-limbed robots.
