At first, he retained his human intelligence, following orders to attack the X-Men. In prison, he mutated further, giving him a tail and enchanced strength. He broke free and hunted down the surgeon who had changed him. After the surgeon was rescued from him by Spider-Man, Griffin battled Spidey and Beast of the X-Men. Griffin later found out that his powers mutated whenever he strained himself to the upper limits, and thus he sought to fight the strongest foes he could, including the Avengers. Further mutations caused him to lose his intelligence, giving him the mind of a savage animal.
