HISTORY

The history of the killer called Garrote is unknown. He has concealed his identity and violently silenced anyone who might expose his secrets. Garrote gained notoriety after a series of gruesome murders were traced back to him. The hero Johnny Sol ultimately captured him, but his imprisonment was short-lived. Garrote has since been seen alongside members of the Crime Phalanx, though whether he joined voluntarily or under Doc Chronos’s influence remains unknown.

POWERS/ABILITIES

Garrote can change his body’s mass into an extraordinarily malleable state, stretching, deforming, flattening and compressing himself. He can absorb impacts and redirect projectiles with his flexible body. His reflexes are nearly instantaneous.

WEAPONS/PARAPHERNALIA

Garrote’s preferred murder method is strangulation, usually with his own elongated hands or arms.
