There have been a number of adventures in towns called Midvale, it is unknown if these are all the same town or not. In 1940 lumber contractor Baldwin Drake attempted to wipe out his chief competitor Jim Brent using sabotage. His plot was foiled by the robot Electro.[1] In 1941 a town called Midvale was under the control of mobster John Smithers until he was stopped by Hurricane.[2] Richard Janus retired to Midvale during his career as the Nega-Man, purpotedly living with a fictional brother.[citation needed]
