Vibro is a supervillain appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics.
Alton Vibreaux was born in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Working as a seismologist and engineer, he fell into the San Andreas Fault during the testing of an experimental nuclear-powered apparatus, giving him superpowers and leaving him mentally unstable. He battles James Rhodes as Iron Man.[2] He is later sent to the Vault, a prison for superpowered individuals. Alongside the Griffin, he attempts to escape, encountering the Falcon and Nomad.[3] Vibro caused a massive earthquake in Los Angeles, and battled the Avengers West Coast,[4] and later battled the original Iron Man again.[5]
Vibro is killed and resurrected by the Hand, and joins an assault on the S.H.I.E.L.D. helicarrier.[6] Mandarin and Zeke Stane later recruit him to help defeat Iron Man.[7]
