Some point after Wyngarde returned to his true adult age, he joined the rich and influential members of society in the Hellfire Club. Therefore the team was defeated by one of their own members, with Alpha himself leaving Earth to find his purpose in deep space. As children, they no longer had their mutant powers the abilities that they had developed when they originally reached puberty. He used his powers to rapidly decrease their age, reducing them all to infancy. Unfortunately for the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, Alpha turned against them after his hyper-evolved state judged them to be unworthy of his assistance. Alpha, the Ultimate Mutant, was a secret weapon in the Brotherhood's battle against the Defenders. Magneto soon returned to claim his title of leader of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, and this time he literally created a new member for the team using alien technology. He was unsuccessful which resulted in a fight, which he was also unsuccessful in winning.
Mastermind attempted to persuade the Beast to join them. This time without Magneto's siblings, but with his former Factor Three allies Blob & Unus the Untouchable. The Brotherhood of Evil Mutants reformed. However, it wasn't long before Mastermind returned to his criminal ways.
Unable to project any psionic illusions on the giant robotic servants, he had to rely on help from his enemies in the X-Men to save him. The Earth-born members of Factor three combined forces with the X-Men to defeat Mutant-Master and stop his plans for conquest.Īlthough Wyngarde had helped to save the Earth from alien domination, he was soon captured by the Sentinels. It transpired that Ogre was a human genius who relied heavily on his technological creations to hide the fact that he wasn't actually a mutant himself, and their leader, the Mutant-Master, was in fact an alien in disguise. At the time they believed their members were all mutants. They had forced Banshee to fight for their cause by placing a headset on him that was primed with explosives. However, their extreme tactics were as questionable as those of the Brotherhood. Factor Three fought to make a mutant country that was the third major world power after the US and the USSR. After the effects of the spell wore off, it wasn't long before Mastermind found himself with a new group vying for mutant supremacy. During their confrontation Magneto was stranded on an alien planet, while Mastermind was turned into stone after attempting to double cross him. Magneto attempted to make a pact with the enigmatic being known as the Stranger, However, instead of a new ally Magneto found a new foe, as the Stranger was not a mutant, which was what both Magneto and the X-Men assumed, but was actually a cosmic entity from the stars. The Brotherhood continually failed in their battles against the X-Men. However, his powers had not been developed to their fullest potential, and therefore he was only capable of casting minor visual illusions, like simulating the illusion of fire, or making it seem like Beast's legs had stopped working. Peter Wyngarde was also famous for playing the leader of a Hellfire Club in an infamous (for the time) episode of the British " Avengers" series.Īs a member of the Brotherhood Mastermind often came to battle the young group of mutant heroes known as the X-Men.
Jason Wyngarde was created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby and first appeared in The X-Men #4 (1964).Ĭhris Claremont and John Byrne later gave Mastermind the name of Jason Wyngarde, which is a blend of British actor, Peter Wyngarde and his most famous role, Jason King. His thirst for power matched his desire for the Scarlet Witch, but despite trying to use his powers and arguments he was never able to separate her from her protective twin brother Quicksilver during their tenure as a group, with his tricks being ineffective on them.
Magneto's goals suited Wyngarde's, as he had previously only managed to secure employment as a mentalist a trickster in carnivals. Wyngarde joined Magneto's new group, and thus became known as Mastermind a founding member of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. However, the one man who recognized Wyngarde's powers of psychic illusion was Magneto.
