Atherton discovers that his body is generating a feedback field that shuts down nearby electronic equipment.

Atherton creates a damping suit that keeps the field in check and becomes Dark Horse Comic's new superhero "Feedback."

[2] By using an organization created by his former employer known as "Tech Support", Feedback gains enough knowledge to use the limited powers wisely.

However, both the Dark Horse comic and the Sci-Fi Channel original movie Mega Snake failed to feature Feedback's ability to use video game powers.

Left for dead by the terrorists, an unexpected event turns Matthew into Feedback, giving him one chance to redeem himself and save the city.

[citation needed] Feedback made his debut public appearance at the Mid-Ohio Con the weekend of November 25–26, 2006, in Columbus, Ohio.

In the film, the titular monster attacks a carnival grounds while Feedback is present giving a safety lecture to children.

Upon the serpentine monster attacking the stage area, Feedback manages to hold the creature off while the crowds evacuate before taking his leave.

In addition to signing autographs and posing for pictures with fans at his booth on the convention floor (along with Major Victory and Fat Momma), Feedback also sold a limited edition "Feedback Loop" token in association with the True Dungeon event run by True Adventures, Inc.

Feedback was also a scheduled guest at Dragon*Con, America's largest Sci-fi/Fantasy/Horror/Comic/Media Convention, Labor Day weekend 2007 in Atlanta, GA.
