Tower is a fictional mutant character in the Marvel Comics Universe. His first appearance was in X-Factor #2.

Tower was one of the Alliance of Evil, a group of mutants banded together by Apocalypse. Under his guidance they acted as mutant terrorists, primarily defying the Mutant Registration Act, and this brought them into conflict with the original X-Factor team.

Eventually the Alliance disbanded and Tower found his way to South America where he was terrorizing a small village. He was tracked down and killed by the high-tech vigilante known as the X-Cutioner.

Tower is notable as one of the few Marvel size-changing characters whose powers were not originally derived from Pym particles.
