Background: An airplane mechanic who became tired of being passed up for promotions and decided to use his skills for himself. He built the Beetle Armor and attempted various schemes which brought him into conflict with Human Torch and Spider Man. Eventually he came into conflict with Iron Man due to using stolen Stark tech.
He generally feels wronged by things in his life and often tries to take revenge or uses it as an excuse to commit crime.
He murdered a scientist at one point while in Hammer’s “Hit Squad.”
Eventually he becomes a member of the Thunderbolts, rethinks his life, and becomes a hero, doing prison time for the murder he committed.
