And when it comes to Grim Reaper, his deadliness is almost less about his somewhat limited powers themselves, and more about the ghastly nature of his schemes and what he does with those powers. This would empower him physically and let him shoot a variety of energy beams from the scythe, making it a versatile and deadly weapon in its own right.īut Grim Reaper was also originally possessed of a dark kind of super science-based necromancy – a skill that gave him a special obsession with the Vision.

Initially, Grim Reaper was possessed of a cybernetic scythe that could drain the lifeforce of his victims (a convenient way of not having an actual vampire supervillain, something against the Comics Code at the time, and a trick Roy Thomas pulled several times at Marvel, as with his X-Men villain creation Sauron). Grim Reaper went on to fight the Avengers (especially the Vision) countless times both as a member of Ultron's Lethal Legion supervillain team, and as a solo villain – a path that led him to a fate even darker than his brother's. Using his scythe's ability to drain lifeforce, Grim Reaper fought the Avengers to a standstill before Black Panther appeared out of nowhere and took him down, earning a place on the Avengers in the process. To wit, Tinkerer sawed off Eric's arm and installed the gnarly cybernetic scythe that gave Eric his villainous identity as the Grim Reaper.

Later on, when Ultron created the Vision, he used parts from the body of the original android Human Torch, and based Vision's 'Engram' brain pattern on that of Simon Williams, which had been preserved by Ultron's creator (in comic books anyway), Hank Pym.įollowing all of this, Eric Williams sought out the villainous Tinkerer (MCU fans will remember him as Vulture's tech-savvy ally in Spider-Man: Homecoming) to outfit him with a weapon to defeat the Avengers, who Eric blamed for his brother's death. When Wonder Man's attack failed, he decided to join the Avengers and help take down Zemo and his Masters of Evil – but died in the fight.

Eric Williams was a criminal who attempted to save his brother Simon's failing company by investing his ill-gotten money, a scheme which failed, leading to Simon undergoing the experiment that turned him into Wonder Man in a bid to attack his rival Tony Stark, whose Stark Enterprises was putting him out of business.
