When Spectrum Captains Scarlet and Black discovered the Mysteron city on Mars, Black mistook the intentions of a probe for a hostile offensive and opened fire, completely destroying the city. Using their power of retrometabolism (the ability to recreate matter), the Mysterons rebuilt their city, killed Black, and promised to crush Earth and its destructive people. This has taken the form of a war of nerves, with the Mysterons using their powers to influence people, vehicles and inanimate objects to fall under their control. The Mysterons' primary Earth agent is Captain Black, recreated from the body of the original Spectrum agent.

They appear as a pair of green rings; however, it is not known whether this is the result of technology.

Scarlet has powers of self- repair that allow him to recover from even fatal injuries, making him Spectrum's top asset in its fight against the Mysterons. The first episode begins with a group of human astronauts destroying the Mysteron city on Mars due to a misunderstanding, only for the aliens to reconstruct their settlement. The Mysterons then declare a "war of nerves" on humanity, intending to destroy high-profile targets one after the other. On Earth, Captain Scarlet and fellow Spectrum officer Captain Brown are killed in a road accident and replaced with Mysteron doubles programmed to carry out the aliens' first threat – the assassination of the World President.

This ability is used to wage a "war of nerves" against Earth whereby the Mysterons issue threats against specific targets (from world leaders and military installations to cities and continents) and then destroy and reconstruct whatever instruments are needed (be they human or object) to carry out their plans.

Although the Mysterons are able to influence events from Mars, their actions on Earth are usually performed by their replicated intermediaries. Zero-X mission leader Captain Black becomes the aliens' primary agent when they seize control of his mind.

Rather than prosecute the contacts and reveal how closely the system could track the submarines, the SAC bases put more bombers on ready alert assuming the Soviets would notice.

Following the destruction, the three- man crew of the MEV witnessed the miraculous re-materialisation ("retro- metabolism", as it is termed in the TV series) of the Mysteron city, and for their act of aggression the Mysterons took control of Black's mind and body as the principal agent of their vengeance.

They completed their work in 1963 and were later awarded the Lenin Prize for their achievement.Tucker, J. B.; War of Nerves; Anchor Books; New York; 2006; pp 181-182.

Most of the stories revolve around the relationship between the little genius and his more down-to-earth teacher, with whom he is engaged in a never-ending war of nerves (nerves being the operative word when it comes to the teacher). While Mister Rectitude tries desperately to maintain discipline, Olivier comes up with all kinds of inventions which cause chaos all over the school. (As if to emphasize the conflict between teacher and pupil, the series was renamed M. Rectitude et Génial Olivier when published in book form.) Olivier's greatest pleasure is to take an invention to school which he will use either to play pranks on Mister Rectitude and/or other pupils or members of staff, or come up with ways to cheat in the exams. This, plus his inattention in class or his tendency to chat with his friend Flafla, results in lines and after-school detentions.
