History: Herman Schultz was a burglar with an aptitude for working with tools serving his third prison term when he came up with the idea for a device which would be able to open any door or lock quickly and quietly. Assigned to the prison's workshop, he filched parts and over a period of several months developed a prototype of what would later become his signature weapon: a wrist-mounted unit which generated waves of vibrational force which could shake any door loose.
Schultz escaped prison using the prototype, but was severely injured by the vibrational feedback. Developing a padded bodysuit to absorb the feedback, he embarked on a series of successful burglaries, taking the name of the Shocker, until he encountered Spider-Man. Although he managed to defeat the web-slinger in their first confrontation, a second encounter days later resulted in his being taken into police custody. As he was in the same prison as the Rhino when the latter broke through a wall, resulting in a mass escape, it is possible that the Shocker was among the convicts that escaped in the confusion.
