Volton the Human Generator

Guy Newton was a young scientist who discovered the secret to harnessing the static electricity of the human body. He concealed the control device in a chain around his waist, which provided the ability to control and absorb electricity, and magnetize both people and objects, extending to any form of electricity, including static electricity, something which he used to deadly effect. Growing tired of the inefficiency of law enforcement, Newton offered his services to the police force. The commissioner figured that Newton was insane and tried to arrest him. Newton used his powers to stop the officers in their tracks. When the commissioner got a call about a hold-up in progress, he relented and gave Volton his full cooperation. The young hero arrested the criminals.
