Jonathan Horton (Earth-7045)

Against his will, Johnny Horton was transformed by a scientist using mutagenic techniques and surgical procedures into humanoid manticore-like creature, driving the man insane from all the contradictory instincts. The Griffin has since become a regular menace towards the superhero community.

Trivia

 * More mythologically-inclined individuals will point out that Griffon's appearances is more reminiscent of a manticore than a griffon, and will call Horton the former as a result. The actual griffons of myth have the head of a bird rather than a lion, and the abnormal tail for both species evokes the manticore (even if it does come from a lizard instead of a scorpion). The media-given name of "Griffon" has stuck, however.
