The villain had his strength recognized by Earth’s mightiest heroes in Avengers #196 in 1980, where he managed to defeat and capture several of them.
In a classic villain monologue moment, Taskmaster reveals his history, explaining that he was born Tony Masters in Brooklyn, who realized he had photographic reflexes from an early age.
Just by watching, he could mimic any kind of physical ability he saw, including all styles of hand-to-hand combat. All Taskmaster needs to do is to see it once, even if it is only a recording.
His photographic memory becomes very useful, and he soon learns all the fighting moves of heroes like Captain America, Spiderman, and Daredevil.
