History

The man known as Tower is one of the many humans who were mutated by the release of Terrigen Mists in Earth's atmosphere. He would become a member of Daredevil's circus and was part of it's Freak Show when the circus was dismantled by the Skull's army. When Daredevil would join Captain America in trying to stop the Skull, Tower and the other circus freaks would be sent ahead to New York to undergo training from Scott Summers and become a new team of X-Men.

Tower would aid his fellow X-Men in battling the Skull's army until the villains death at Captain America's hands. Tower would remain with the X-Men thereafter. Three years later, he and the other X-Men would join Mar-Vel on his quest to collect items of power following the death of Captain America.

Tower would travel to HEL Laboratories, the Moon and eventually stay with the other X-Men after a stop in Wakanda to help the nation relocate to the Savage Land to escape an army of Windego that sought to feed on the Ani-Men who lived there. Tower would aid his fellow X-Men in stopping the Windego (revealed to be the Multiple Man) in the Savage Land. He would then help the X-Men and the Wakandan's rebuild the Wakandan nation in the Savage Land. They would be interrupted by an attack by Belasco and an army of Dire Wraths, they would be rescued by Mar-Vel and his friends.

Tower would also be present during the final battle against the Absorbing Man, later be among the X-Men at one of the many hospitals of the dieing following the death of Death, and attend the wedding of King Britain and Medusa. His current whereabouts are unknown.

Powers and Abilities

Powers

Tower's exposure to the Terrigen Mists caused him to grow to a gigantic size. It appears that his height is immutable like other giants such as Henry Pym, or Erik Jostin. He cannot shrink to a normal height, or grow any taller than he already is. It is presumable, that his strength, speed and agility is all proportionate to his increased size.
