Ultra-Humanite

Ultra-Humanite was a powerful supervillain whose super intellect and mental abilities were unmatched in his day.

Due to his incredible mental powers, his brain had an enormous energy output. This was unnatural, and it caused his physical body to burn out.

Being the genius that he was, he found a way to have his brain transplanted into the body of a brainless albino gorilla, whose body was more suitable to withstand his mental energies.

He eventually joins the second lineup of Secret Society of Super-Villains, becoming the leader of the team, and taking on the Justice League of America and the Justice Society of America.
