Jason Macendale - Powers and Abilities

Powers and Abilities

Macendale originally possessed no superhuman powers, but used similar paraphernalia to the Hobgoblin and Green Goblin; in both his Jack O'Lantern and Hobgoblin persona he used a glider and pumpkin bombs. Though Macendale never acquired the strength enhancing formula of the Green Goblin he did eventually acquire temporary super powers.

Macendale first acquired superhuman abilities in a deal with N'astirh in which a minor demon was grafted to him. These were the greatest abilities Macendale ever acquired, but they were temporary. This deal granted him super strength, speed, and agility (all though are below the level of Spider-Man), as well as hellfire powers enabling him to create a transport of flame at will. He quickly lost control of the demon causing him to go insane. The human and demon later split into two beings, resulting in the loss of those powers for Macendale.

Eventually, Macendale managed to acquire the performance enhancing formula of Kraven the Hunter instead, which enhanced his strength, speed, stamina, durability, reflexes, and agility to superhuman levels (less than Kraven due to having a weaker baseline athletic physique). As he was still no match for Spider-Man, Macendale later had his body augmented cybernetically, giving him greater superhuman strength, speed, reflexes, durability, and stamina.

Famous quotes containing the words powers and/or abilities:

    When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    Our wishes are presentiments of the abilities that lie in us, harbingers of what we will be able to accomplish.
    Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
