Powers/Abilities: Tome was a master of robotics, constructing giant rats, pythons, birds and moles, among others. His python was large enough to crush a skyscraper. Tome also used a hover-tank armed with a sonic-resonator gun capable of destroying buildings.
History: Dr Tome started his career as a vaudeville act, demonstrating his wonderous robot animals. Sadly his show was found extremely boring by all who saw it, and so he retired. But ten years later, having perfected giant versions of his pets, he unleashed his killer robots on the city that had spurned him. He soon came into conflict with Miniman, who recognised his work from when they had both played at the same venue years before. The tiny hero tracked Tome to his base in the old Starla Theatre, defeated his booby-traps, and brought the criminal genius to justice.
