Voice

The Voice, born Jason Cragg, is an American villain and former radio announcer. Hailing from the midwest, Cragg was a floundering radio announcer when a "million-to-one" incident at a nearby nuclear facility caused radiation to seep through his microphone one day and give him unique powers. He suddenly had a voice that would cause anyone who heard it to believe it was the absolute truth. Realizing the malevolent potential of this ability, Cragg moved to New York City and sought greater power. There he saw that Ant-Man, who was impervious to Cragg's voice through his cybernetic helmet, was a threat to his ambitions.

Cragg commanded the police to track Ant-Man down, and eventually succeeded in removing Ant-Man's helmet and getting him under his spell. He ordered Ant-Man to walk off of a pier into the ocean, and he obeyed, but was saved from the water by his ant friends and carried to safety. Later, Cragg was scheduled to appear on a televised broadcast where he would at last take control of everyone watching. But Ant-Man showed up at the studio and crawled up to Cragg's ear on the stage, telling him to tell the crowd that he was wrong about Ant-Man, threatening him with an (unloaded) gun. Cragg did so, believing he could simply say the opposite again later, but then Ant-Man revealed that he had planted laryngitis microbes on the microphone, which in moments began to harm Cragg's voice irreparably. It lost all hypnotic quality, and the citizens ran him out of town.
