Mysterio's History

Mysterio created Dr. Rinehart, an alias, in order to hypnotize Spider-Man and in turn driving him mad in Amazing Spider-Man #24...Mysterio is yet another great foe of Spidey to join the Sinister Six alongside Doctor Octopus, Vulture, Sandman, Kraven the Hunter, and Electro...He later re-joined the team a couple times in order to gain vengeance on Spider-Man.

Mysterio has also joined forces with The Wizard in going up against Spidey and The Human Torch...He also once convinced Spider-Man that he was only 6 inches tall from his hypnotic powers!...Quentin Beck once confided in Daniel Berkhart, a former cellmate in prison...Berkhart actually became Mysterio for a brief time in Amazing Spider-Man #141 & 142.

Mysterio was involved in trying to locate a treasure hidden in Peter Parker's Aunt May's home and was even involved with the Burglar...The very man that murdered Peter's Uncle Ben...Is there is some kind of connection there?...The Fortune hidden in Aunt May's home was eventually eaten by Silverfish as Mysterio again disguised himself as an alien in order to try to locate it.

Mysterio has basically stayed in the "Spider-Verse" part of the Marvel Universe but has gotten his hands dirty against She-Hulk and Power Pack in the past...Recently, Mysterio has made Daredevil's life tragic by getting involved in his life and in the end, seemingly took his own life...Mysterio's existence was further clouded by his "return in the pages of Amazing Spider-Man and is further clouded by his appearance in the limited series Mysterio Manifesto which hints that the new Mysterio may be our old friend Danny Berkhart.
