First appearance: Avengers #9 Origin: Avengers #9 Description: Simon is a muscular man standing 6' 2'' tall and weighing 380 lbs. He has grey hair which he dyes dark. His eyes often glow red when he is angry or employing his strength. When he flies his whole body is surrounded by glowing purple ionic energy, except for his eyes and the W on his chest which are red. History: Simon Williams was the youngest son of Sanford Williams, industrialist and founder of Williams Innovations. Simon joined the family firm at a young age, and took over as CEO when his father died. At the age of 22, he found himself in charge of a multimillion dollar corporation, and sorely lacking in the skills necessary to run it. He eventually turned to embezzlement in an attempt to invest in other enterprises to generate enough money to save his failing business. Unfortunately, his investments were in companies with strong Maggia connections. His board of directors discovered his improprieties, and brought him to trial. He was found guilty, and was facing prison when Amora, the Enchantress, paid his bail and used her wiles to ensorcel the authorities. She presented Simon to Baron Heinrich Zemo, who had been following the case, and planned to use the fact that Simon blamed the success of Stark Industries to turn him into a weapon against Iron Man and the Avengers. Simon agreed to Zemo's plan, and allowed himself to be subjected to an ionic ray process that greatly increased his strength and durability. Zemo informed Williams that he was to infiltrate the Avengers, and upon gaining their trust, lead them into an ambush by the Masters of Evil. In order to ensure Simon's loyalty, Zemo told him that the process that had granted his power had side effects which would kill him if he didn't receive the antidote. An antidote that only Baron Zemo could provide. Wonder Man, as he was now known joined the Avengers and told them of his sickness. They attempted to cure him by all the means at their disposal, to no avail. Wonder Man led the Avengers into Zemo's trap, but at the last moment, his conscience told him he couldn't betray people who had shown him such kindness. He turned on the Masters of Evil, and saved the Avengers' lives. After telling the Avengers he was glad his last act had been one of a hero, he died, showing no vital signs (Avengers #9). The Avengers took Simon's body home for burial. Unbeknownst to the Avengers, Wonder man had not actually died, he had gone into a death like state brought on by Zemo's mutagenic treatments. His body was stolen by his brother, Eric. In an attempt to regain his brother, Eric, also known as the Grim Reaper offered to tape the Vision II's brain and copy it into his brothers' lifeless body. When this scheme failed, Grim Reaper fled, taking his brother's body with him (Avengers #102). The Grim reaper then had the Black Talon revive his brother's body, effectively turning him into a zombie. The zombie was shipped to the Avengers with orders to attack the Vision II and the Avengers. After the Avengers defeated Simon's resuscitated body, it mysteriously began to move about on it's own. Slowly, Simon came back to life. Upon examination, it was determined that Simon had been in a coma, while his body metamorphosed into an ionic state (Avengers #151-154). With the Avengers he faced the Elements of Doom while in Russia (Avengers #188) Wonder Man stayed with the Avengers for several more adventures, never really feeling like a hero. Eventually he left the Avengers to pursue an acting career. He moved to Los Angeles, and had a successful career as both an actor and stuntman. When Hawkeye founded the West Coast Avengers, Simon was there to answer the call, and finally came into his own as an Avenger. He was among the team members when they were attacked by the U-Foes in a plot by Loki (Avengers West Coast II #53). He stayed with the team almost until it's breakup. When he created Force Works, Iron Man contacted Wonder Man, and again he found himself working with other heroes on a team. Unfortunately, on their first mission, Simon was killed preventing a spaceship from crashing to earth. As a being of energy, Simon's energy lingered until it was brought back by actions of the Scarlet Witch, at first for short periods of time, then eventually for good. Simon aided the Avengers in defeating Morgan Le Fay and then joined up with them full time and dating the Scarlet Witch. Powers: Wonder Man's body has been augmented by radiation and ionic treatments. He can lift 100 tons, is nearly impervious to harm, he does not age or require food or air to survive and his speed has been enhanced to superhuman levels. By releasing ionic energy from his body Wonder Man can fly. Character created by Marvel Comics. Page setup by Mathew R. Ignash - mathewignash@yahoo.com. Last Updated - October, 2001
