Powers: Originally a baseline human with no superhuman powers, James Beverley was an ardent Spider-Man fan and race car driver who gained special abilities after seeking employment with crimelord, Mr. Negative.
As Overdrive, he is equipped with "nano-pimps"
that allow him to transform any ground vehicle into a renovated form. Using an
energy discharge from his hands as a delivery system, Overdrive
can produce nanotech re-assemblers that have apparently been
specifically programmed to upgrade vehicles for the perfect getaway. He
has used sports cars, monster trucks, motorcycles, limos, even school
buses in the past. Overdrive's nano-rides
demonstrate increased speed, acceleration, cornering ability, and so
on. Each reconfiguration so far has turned the vehicle jet-black and
extended some form of metallic green exhaust pipe from the vehicle.
Whether this is merely Overdrive's preferred detailing scheme or a programmed part of the conversion is unknown. Overdrive
can apparently drive each vehicle simply through making contact with
it, and can possibly make more substantial changes to the vehicle's
design. For instance, he escaped from Mister Negative when the
gangboss's Inner Demons put him in the trunk of a limo. Overdrive altered the stretch limo and somehow moved from the locked trunk to the
front seat by doing so. The vehicles' reconfiguration is only temporary,
and they revert back to normal shortly after breaking contact with Overdrive.
He appears to be an exceptionally skilled race car driver and mechanic. He wears a padded costume providing protection from impact.
