The Shaggy Man is an immensely powerful creature created through genetic engineering, whose strength and regenerative powers are so considerable that it can fight the entire Justice League to a stalemate. Professor Andrew Zagarian created the creature from dead body parts and plastalloy, becoming an extremely strong but mindless synthetic being. Various applications have been utilized to defeat each incarnation of it, ranging from burial deep into the sea, to placing an entire mountain on top of him. The sole purpose of Shaggy Man is destruction and mayhem.
Powers and Abilities[]
- Super strength: The Shaggy Man is one of the strongest beings on the planet. He has engaged Superman in hand-to-hand combat and nearly defeated him and has repeatedly fought off the entire might of the Justice League.
- Super stamina: Nothing seems to slow the Shaggy Man down. His abilities allow him to fight for days with no signs of exhaustion.
- Superhuman Durability: Very little can harm the Shaggy Man, whether it's superhumans, extreme temperatures, high pressures, or even the vacuum of space
- Immortality As an artificial life form, the Shaggy Man does not age.
- Accelerated Healing: The Shaggy Man's body possesses enhanced salamander regenerative tissue and a subverted nervous system. This means the monster is capable of re-growing any body parts lost in battle, and can recover from any injury in seconds without feeling pain. Even a direct punch from Superman did little to slow him down.
- Self-Sustenance: As an artificial life form, the Shaggy Man does not need air, water, food, or rest.
- Adaptation: The Shaggy Man constantly adapts to any attack made against him. After he experiences one form of attack, he learns how to resist it in the future.
- Superhuman Senses: The Shaggy Man is able to smell the adrenaline in his opponent's sweat.
