History: After encountering his
future self and member of the Guardians of Galaxy, Vance Astro,
Vance Astrovik knew that his life would be far from boring. As an
astronaut,Vance Astro, known as Major Victory to his Guardian
teammates, spent almost a century travelling through space in a
cryogenic slumber. He was to be the first contact with outside
worlds. However, he awoke to find that his mission had been for
nothing, and that his friends and companions were long gone. Not
wanting his past self to go through what he had, Astro returned
to Earth to persuade his young self not to become an astronaut.
The anomaly caused by the meeting of the two Vance's face to face
sparked young Vance's dormant telekinetic powers. Unfortunately,
Vance's parents weren't quite as thrilled with their son's new
"gift" as he was. Vance withstood severe physical abuse
from his father, and Vance's mother did little to intervene.
Vance soon ran away to develop and learn more about his powers.
Of course, he wanted to escape the abuse of his father as well.
In an attempt to evade a private detective that his parents had
hired to find him, Vance became a wrestler under the alias of
Manglin' John Mahoney. A fellow wrestler eventually convinced
Vance to return to his parents, and his mother assured him that
his father was attending a therapy program. However, Mr. Astrovik
continued to abuse his son, and Vance sought refuge with the
Xavier's Institute of Gifted Youngsters, where he was soon
accepted.
