Powers and Abilities
Wittman is a scientific genius with Ph.Ds in several sciences, particularly in the fields of applied physics and sub-atomic particles. He has constructed a number of devices which he employs in his criminal activities:
- His anti-gravity discs can lift several hundred pounds each, and can be remotely controlled via relays in his armor. These give him the ability to fly, which is, contrary to popular belief, accomplished without wings. He was able to create a basic one using prison workshop materials.
- His gauntlets (alternatively referred to as Power Gloves or Wonder Gloves) can unleash potent electrical blasts or use directed gravitational fields to increase his strength. The strength he can gain from his Wonder Gloves is unknown. When he constructed one for Imus Champion in an appropriate size, the villain was able to hurt both Thor and Hyperion in battle.
- His body armor provides him with protection from assault, and devices in his helmet allow him to control the minds of others.
In addition to being a scientist and engineer, Wittman is also a talented stage magician, escape artist, and master of disguise.

Famous quotes containing the words powers and/or abilities:
“A multitude of causes unknown to former times are now acting with a combined force to blunt the discriminating powers of the mind, and unfitting it for all voluntary exertion to reduce it to a state of almost savage torpor.”
—William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
“Your friends praise your abilities to the skies, submit to you in argument, and seem to have the greatest deference for you; but, though they may ask it, you never find them following your advice upon their own affairs; nor allowing you to manage your own, without thinking that you should follow theirs. Thus, in fact, they all think themselves wiser than you, whatever they may say.”
—William Lamb Melbourne, 2nd Viscount (1779–1848)
