Fictional character biography
An unscrupulous munitions magnate, Damon Dran became paranoid about his own mortality and secretly commissioned the creation of Project Four, a weapon that would imbue him with the power necessary to survive the "inevitable" World War III.
After Project Four was stolen by Black Widow and Danny French, [5] [6] Dran spent years trying to locate it. He eventually tracked both French and Black Widow down in San Francisco, where he had them captured and brought to his mansion in Berkeley. Dran was able to discern Project Four's location by subjecting French to a mind probe. While the device was being prepared for him, he sent Blue Talon and a brainwashed Black Widow against Black Widow's partner, Daredevil. [7]
Powers and abilities
The development of the Project Four device resulted in Dran obtaining superhuman strength and invulnerability, as well as the ability to increase his size and project energy beams from his hands. The extent of Dran's indestructibility is uncertain, though it enabled him to survive the destruction of his island by a S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier. Notably, Dran's abilities appeared to eliminate his need for basic human necessities such as air, as he was unaffected by knockout gas.
Following the destruction of Project Four by Danny French, Dran temporarily lost his powers. However, he later regained his strength and invincibility, though these abilities eventually faded. In an attempt to replicate his former powers, Dran utilized cybernetic implants, which required stabilizers in the form of U.V. lights and special pills. Despite these efforts, the implants proved to be far less effective than Dran's previous abilities, as he was unable to withstand a corrosive gas attack.
