History: (Electro, Pow Annual 1972) The Great Dynamo is a genius master criminal who uses electrically based gadgetry to commit crimes in and around Surf City. He travels in a vehicle called the Dynawheel, and uses robots made out of solidified electrical current, called Dynamen, as his henchmen. Highly egotistical, the appearance of a hero with electrical powers (see Electro) caused him to go on a crime spree merely to prove his superiority. While the initial encounters went well for him, his luck ran out when Electro tracked him back to his base and captured him.
