[edit] Mind-Wave I

Mind-Wave was a megalomaniac criminal possessing mental abilities heightened by his own inventions. He robbed banks in Europe and America until stopped by Daredevil and Uri Geller.[1]

Mind-Wave’s mental abilities failed to warn him about the Scourge of the Underworld, who killed him in the “Bar With No Name” massacre.

[edit] Powers and abilities

Mind-Wave wore a helmet of his own design that boosted his natural mind powers particularly ESP, with which he could blindside a non-telepathic opponent at will. His helmet also enabled him to communicate mentally with others wearing similar helmets, with his "Think Tank" or with other ESPers.

Mind-Wave's "Think Tank" was a large, heavily armed vehicle control by his mental powers which he used to rob banks. It had heat-ray cannons. He also carried hand-held versions of the heat ray.

[edit] Mind-Wave II

A new Mindwave appeared as a Superhuman Registration Act violator. He attacked a police station in Las Vegas, Nevada after declaring his opposition to the Registration Act and stating that his codename was different from the man who was called "Mind Hyphen Wave." He surrendered, stating that he expected to be arrested by the Thunderbolts.[2]

Mindwave was next seen being escorted to a cell in Thunderbolts Mountain. When the guards had walked away, he began a telepathic conversation with fellow prisoners Caprice, Bluestreak and Mirage. He suggested that it would be fun to interfere with the surgery scheduled to be performed on Bullseye.[3]
