Mesmero (Vincent) (Earth-7045)

Note: current image is placeholder

As one of the few X-Men foes who managed to take out the entire team on his own, "Vincent" was a mutant with the ability to hypnotize with his eyes. He often used his abilities to entertain, joining a circus or performing hypnotic acts on stage, but he eventually ran afoul of the X-Men. Several revenge attacks on the team left Vincent spending much of his time being sent to and escaping from prisons around the country.

Trivia

 * "Vincent" is the name his mother called him.
 * Mesmero has always been "a second-rate villain" and is aware of his own status. He has considerable power and has enjoyed the right opportunities, but he has never had the right plan. Which is why he has always failed.
 * Mesmero likes his own codename because he finds it has a certain devilish flare. He reasons that he was christened back when being a villain was more than just a job.
