History
20th Century[]
With the outbreak ofWorld War II,Nazi spies often sought to exploit Niagara Falls for the purposes of espionage or sabotage.
In 1941, theSub-Mariner exposed a plot by Nazi prisoners of war who escaped from their prisoners in Canada to use Niagara Falls as a means of smuggling themselves into the United States to carry acts of espionage.[1] The region was targeted for Nazi sabotage again in 1943, when Nazi operativeDr. Grant smuggled himself into the United States and attempted to blow up the falls. This plot was also stopped by the Sub-Mariner.[2]
Glenn Talbot andElizabeth Ross went to Niagara Falls for their honeymoon.[3]
Thunderball took a local power center hostage and threatened to destroy it unless he could speak with his beloved Rhonda - who by the way refused. Thunderball was defeated byDr. Clytemnestra Erwin, who worked there, and byJames Rhodes in his first solo action asIron Man.[4]Points of Interest
