Ben Leighton uses a device which bends light, granting him the power of invisibility, and allowing him to become the Invisible Man. Unlike the original, who was permanently invisible, Leighton could become visible or invisible at will. However, in low light the device doesn’t work, because there would be no light for it to bend. Leighton robbed the Midtown Bank and murdered the bank teller, stealing an armored truck delivering gold. Leighton was eventually captured by Bulletman and Bulletgirl. After Bulletman discovered the Invisible Man’s vulnerability to low light, he was able to land a punch on the villain, knocking him out cold. Leighton’s invisibility device was destroyed during the fight, preventing the secrets of invisibility from passing into someone else’s hands.
