enabling him to disguise himself, for example, as an obese person, or a person with more developed musculature, as when he impersonates Captain Dynamo. How he is able to do this, in light of the law of conservation of mass, has not been explained. When engaged in superheroics, Myriad does not wear a mask or helmet like his siblings, but instead disguises himself by erasing all of his facial features. How he is able to see, breathe, hear, and speak without them was also not explained. Spencer's ability to maintain a disguise was dependent upon his concentration; being punched in the face while disguised, for example, would cause that disguise to falter, and being rendered unconscious would cause him to revert to his true, Khandrian appearance. His shapeshifting ability is erased in issue #24 of the series. In issue #25 of the series, Spencer acquires the power of telepathy, a power that was formerly possessed by his brother, Gage Reinhart. His power is both voluntary and passive. While he can use his power to deliberately read someone's mind, he can also involuntarily pick up the thoughts of those around him, even when he does not wish it. Although he was not depicted utilizing all the applications of his telepathy that his brother Gage exhibited, it is otherwise observed that his powers function exactly as Gage's did. As a result of taking a street drug called Flex, Spencer develops other powers unrelated to his father's, and which his siblings do not have: superhuman strength, speed and endurance. Though he ceases using the drug, he retains these powers permanently, it is speculated, because the substance remains permanently bonded to his half-alien physiology. The extent of these powers have not been explicitly given, but they enable him to break several lines of chain tied around him as a restraint, and leap dozens of feet into the air, and across rooftops. Combined with his knowledge of martial arts and acrobatics, Spencer is seen successfully battling opponents such as Anchor, Chain Reaction, and Blue Blaster single-handedly, and holds his own against Widowmaker, Optima, and a human wearing the strength-amplifying Strong-Suit.
