Real
Name: Paul Pierre Duval
Occupation: Former chemist, now professional
criminalIdentity: Publicly knownLegal Status: Citizen of
France with criminal recordPlace of Birth: Fontainebleau, FranceMarital
Status: SingleKnown Relatives: NoneGroup Affiliation:
Former ally of AIM, former captain of the Starship Bird of PreyBase of
Operations: MobileFirst Appearance: JOURNEY INTO MYSTERY #107
History: Paul Duval was a young chemist working
for a commercial pharmaceutical outfit in Paris when he
accidentally spilled a potion contaminated by some unknown,
organic substance on his right hand. To his dismay, his
hand began to turn to a stone like material still capable
of movement. Accidentally touching his other hand, he soon
learned that he could transform his entire body into the
stone-like material, simply by rubbing his hand over the
surface of his body. Further more, he discovered that any
matter he touched also turned to stone, although it was
incapable of movement like he was. Mercenary by nature,
Duval decided to exploit his bizarre power for personal
gain, and turned to theft.
Calling himself the Grey Gargoyle, Duval was soon bored
with the ease with which he could steal, and decided to
go to America to wrest the secret of immortality from the
allegedly immortal Thor. He
failed in the attempt, and was twice bested in combat by
Thor. He then attempted to acquire the deadly compound dubbed
"Element X" but was thwarted in the attempt by
Captain America, the
Falcon, and Nick Fury.
Trapped aboard a satellite in Earth orbit, the Gargoyle
was rescued by the Advanced
Idea Mechanics. In an attempt to launch a satellite
with heavy weaponry, the Gargoyle accidentally rocketed
into space once more. There he was retrieved by the Bird
of Prey, a pirate starship whose crew members were of various
alien races. He assumed command of the ship for a while,
but the crew mutinied. The Grey Gargoyle made it back to
his native Earth and battled the Avengers.
He was defeated and taken in police custody. He was kept
under heavy sedation to keep him from using his powers.
The Gargoyle was soon freed by villains of the fourth Masters
of Evil organization, whose goal was to destroy the
hero team Avengers, but following a defeat at the hands
of Avengers Wasp and Black
Knight, he was again returned to jail. He was broken
out again in order to join several master criminals in a
coordinated attack on various heroes and sent to battle
the Hulk. At the time, the Hulk
possessed a grey alter-ego, and this confused the Gargoyle,
who had thought that the Hulk had turned to stone but nonetheless
kept moving. The Hulk summarily defeated the Gargoyle and
left.
More recently, the Gargoyle was contacted by the Gideon
Trust, a business executive board interested in using technology
developed by the hero team Fantastic
Four for their own purposes. They paid the Gargoyle
to attack the Fantastic Four member, Thing,
in a sort of initiation to thier employ. The Gargoyle seemed
successful in turning the Thing into non-living stone, but
was defeated by the remaining members of the Fantastic Four.
In addition, the Thing was able to break free of the Gargoyle's
power as it kick-started his ability to transform into his
human alter ego and back again at will. He is currently
in police custody.
Height: 5 ft. 11 in.
Weight: 175 lbs, (stone) 750 lbs.Eyes: Blue
Hair: Brown
Strength Level: The Grey Gargoyle possesses superhuman
strength when fully transformed to stone. He can lift (press)
approximately 11 tons. When in his untransformed state,
he has the normal strength of a human male of his age, height,
and build who engages in moderate regular exercise.
Known Superhuman Powers: The Grey Gargoyle possesses
the ability to transform the substance of any organic or
inorganic object into immobile, granite-like rock by touching
it with his permanently transformed right hand. This process
involves a near-instantaneous atom by atom exchange with
a stone-like substance which, in a manner yet unrevealed,
occurs upon contact with the Gargoyle's right hand. The
maximum volume of matter which can be transformed at a single
touch is about 10 cubic feet, equivalent to an object the
size of a bathtub. (An average human being possesses a volume
of 1.8 cubic feet.) The Grey Gargoyle cannot control the
extent of the transformations: every time his hand touches
something, it transforms the maximum amount of molecularly-contiguous
matter it can. Thus, if he touched the instrument panel
of an airplane, he would transform its metallic parts to
the full extent of his power or until the metal was interrupted
by some dissimilar substance, such as plastic. If he were
to touch a human being who happened to be touching another
human being at that moment, only the person he touched himself
would be transformed, despite the fact that both persons
were composed of the same organic substance. This is because
the two human beings, despite being composed of the same
substance, are not molecularly contiguous. The only exception
to the molecular-contiguity limitation is certain substances
(like most fabrics) which for reasons as yet unknown are
"transparent" to the transformation process, allowing
it to occur both to it and through it. Thus, if the Gargoyle
were to touch a person's arm through his clothing, the transformation
will not only affect the clothing but the body underneath
it. Armor or a sufficient number of layers of clothing,
however, will protect a body beneath from being turned to
stone (though having one's clothing turn to stone may be
quite debilitating in itself).
The Grey Gargoyle's transformations last for about an hour,
after which time the objects revert to their normal state.
The period of time that an object will remain transformed
after being touched cannot be increased by repeated touching.
Once a person reverts to normal, however, he or she can
be transformed again. People do not seem to suffer any ill-effects
other than disorientation upon returning to normal. While
a person is stone-like, he or she is as susceptible to damage
as granite statuary. If one's arm were broken off while
stone-like, he or she would still lack the arm upon reversion
to normal.
The Grey Gargoyle can touch himself with his altered hand
and turn himself into a living statue with all of his former
sentience and mobility intact. The Grey Gargoyle is endowed
with all the physical properties of stone such as strength
and hardness, providing him superhuman resistance to impact,
and temperature and pressure extremes. He retains his normal
human reflexes and speed in his stone-like state. Despite
his weight and mass, the Gargoyle's powerful legs enable
him to perform a standing high-jump of about 20 feet.
The Grey Gargoyle prevents unwanted use of his power by
wearing a specially treated glove which is non-conductive
to his power. The glove has a small area in the palm that
is usually left open to allow the use of his power at any
time.
