History-- Dragon Man was an experimental creation of Professor Gregson Gilbert of State University. The benevolent professor had fashioned an artificial dragon-like creature but lacked the means to make it function. . Having heard through secret means of Gilbert's experiments, the alchemist Diablo convinced the professor to give the creature life through one of Diablo's alchemical potions. To Gilbert's shock and regret, Diablo used his control over the creature's will to seek revenge on the hero team Fantastic Four. The four managed to vanquish the creature and saw him disappear into a lake near the university campus.
Since the time of Diablo's original animation and control, the Dragon Man has been used as a pawn by such criminal masterminds as Dr. Lemuel Dorcas, Gregory Gideon, and the Machinesmith, running across such heroes as Spider-Man and Power Pack. Dragon Man is currently under the supervision of his creator, Professor Gilbert.
