New Lockbox Hero: Shocker

Bio: High school dropout Herman Schultz was actually a talented engineer who fell into a life of crime. When Super Heroes began to appear regularly in New York, he decided to arm himself with his own invention, a pair of gauntlets that shoot high frequency blasts of air. Using these new gauntlets and designing a Super Villain persona as the Shocker, he defeated his new nemesis, Spider-Man, who had already been weakened in a previous confrontation with the Lizard. With his ego boosted, Shocker came into conflict with Spider-Man numerous times usually as a henchman for the Maggia. Shocker continued working for the Maggia until he was caught and imprisoned at Ryker's. He accepted an offer from S.H.I.E.L.D. in order to shorten his sentence.
