HISTORY

A convicted murderer, Derek Mitchell escaped from jail seeking vengeance on Mortimer Kadaver, but was involved in an unfortunate accident on the way which turned him into a literally corrosive man. His entire skin burned with chemical fire which could eat through walls and floors or maim human flesh. His encounter with Kadaver left the latter with a handprint burned onto his forehead and left Mitchell inert, at least for a time, although he has surfaced at least twice more.
