Extremis (Aldrich Killian)

Aldrich Killian – played by Guy Pearce – was the main villain in 2013’s Iron Man 3, and the character was entirely different from the version depicted in the comic books, never mind the fact that he possessed a power that his comic book counterpart didn’t possess.

In fact, the Killian in the comic books is completely powerless. He is simply a genius scientist who develops the Extremis virus and sells it to terrorists before killing himself out of guilt.

In Iron Man 3, Killian uses Extremis on himself and gains its powers as a result. Those powers include superhuman strength and agility, a regenerative healing factor, the ability to heat up parts of their body and fire breath.

And now we move on to the star of an utterly terrible DC comic book movie.
