Max Tannhäuser started off as a purely corporate criminal, using his mind control to get 10% of shares of large companies just before a take-over, or to get hired as a consultant to the CEO for 10 grand a day: it was an easy life, but he always wanted more power.
So he took a big pile o'cash and set himself up as a loan-shark to the supervillain community. The thing about mind control is - you don't have to get your hands dirty breaking the slags legs yourself you see: you simply mind control 'em and they do it for themselves! And a broken leg is an extremely good lesson in Not Fecking With The Loan-Shark... - and it is only emphasised when you've done it to yourself...
And the other thing about supervillains is that they have all these REALLY cool toys... - things like the transforming hover-bike with built in teleporter and invisibility shield: the ring of telepathy, the knuckle-dusters of telekinesis, the hologram cube (why the feck it's a cube and not a snazzy item to wear is anyones guess...), the bracelet of mind-reading.... - stuff you just couldn't get amongst the normals!
These days it's getting to the point where he is almost happier when they don't manage to pay him back! - either way he wins: he either makes 10% per week, or they break their own legs AND he gets a new shiny toy...

Also; in addition to what was mentioned in terms of costume - he wears a neckerchief around his mouth and nose in way of concealing his identity....
