History: (Sensational She-Hulk I#1 (fb) – BTS) – Prominent make-up artist, the Professor, joined up with the Circus of Crime. He developed feelings for his teammate, Princess Python. Soon, the Circus began taking assignments and they were hired by a mysterious party (the Headmen) to test the strength of the She-Hulk.

(Sensational She-Hulk I#1) – Ringmaster put She-Hulk under hypnotic control then he tasked the Professor with making her over. Professor painted her skin from green to Caucasian, made her hair red and straight and put her in a tight white dress with gold accessories, and he called her Glamazonia. The Circus commended him on his good work. When Princess Python grew jealous of Glamazonia, Professor sought to make her happy. After Glamazonia performed with the Circus, he released a cart, hoping to kill her. Later, after She-Hulk was freed from hypnotic control, Ringmaster blamed Princess for the cart and Professor confessed it was him.
