When the five planet Sub-Atomica system became severely overpopulated, the government decided to find other worlds to colonize. The chief scientist determined that it would be easier to travel to extradimensional worlds outside the SubAtomica system in his own dimension. Scrutinizing the Earth with his scanning devices, he chose it as the perfect target, since the populace appeared to be defenseless against his unique weaponry for influencing emotions. The scientist traveled to Earth where he called himself the Psycho-Man. To ensure his own safety, the Psycho-Man did not enlarge himself to the normal size of Earth’s human beings when he went to Earth. Rather, he remained tinier than an Earth human being could see, and operated from within an Earth-human-sized armored battlesuit, which he manipulated by mental control. On Earth the Psycho-Man used a portable “mind-ray” device that could influence people’s emotions, which he could manipulate through the battlesuit.

On Earth the Psycho-Man enlisted a number of Earth human operatives to help him acquire the components to build a large-scale version of his “mind-ray” emotion-control device, which could blanket the entire world with its rays. (He could not bring such components to Earth from SubAtomica and enlarge them on Earth to the proper size, because they were too numerous and too massive to transport through the dimensional aperture he himself had used to come to Earth.) The Psycho-Man’s plans, however, were thwarted by the Human Torch and the Thing (both members of the Fantastic Four), members of the Royal Family of the Inhumans, and the Black Panther. In defeat, Psycho-Man vacated his Earth-human-sized armor and returned to his home dimension.

Subsequently, the Thing and Human Torch and their teammate Mister Fantastic went to the PsychoMan’s microverse and battled him there, but the three members of the Fantastic Four had to let him go in order to return to Earth, since it was then being endangered by Galactus.

Still later, the Fantastic Four and the so-called Micronauts, adventurers native to the Psycho-Man’s microverse, battled him there. At this time the Psycho-Man claimed to be an exile on his worldship. Probably he had been exiled by the people of Sub-Atomica.

Recently, the Psycho-Man returned to Earth and unleashed an android which went by the name of H. M. Unger, but is also known as the new Hate-Monger. This android could alter its appearance and went about New York City stirring up hatred among people through speechmaking and through the powers the Psycho-Man had given it. The Hate-Monger even used its powers on Susan Richards, the Invisible Woman of the Fantastic Four, twisting her love and compassion into hatred, and dispatching her to destroy her teammates in the guise of Malice, Mistress of Hate. But Susan’s husband, Mister Fantastic, induced her to break free of the Hate-Monger’s conditioning, and the Hate-Monger was destroyed by the vigilante Scourge.

The Psycho-Man retreated to his home dimension, to which the Fantastic Four pursued him. There the Psycho-Man had conquered the kingdom ruled by the Fantastic Four’s friend Queen Pearla. Finally, the Invisible Woman vengefully confronted the Psycho-Man, and apparently used his own emotion-control device against him. It is not known exactly what the tnvisinble Woman did to him, but she believes he will never threaten anyone again. Pearla regained control of her kingdom. But whether or not the Psycho-Man will return to pose a menace in the future remains to be seen.
