Victor Mancha was designed by Ultron, his full capabilities were never fully divulged... if I recall the thing was that over time his cybernetics would become more and more organic. Anyway his abilities were cybernetics and electric control... he could use electricity strongly enough to control the magnetic spectrum.

The main important part of his backstory is that Ultron designed him to be well... a fanboy. His dream would be to become an Avenger and become the world's greatest hero... and then kill everyone. He was first brought to the attention of the Runaways when one of their teammates came back from the future to warn them about him because he succeeded... He however wasn't evil now, just a teenager so they had him join the team, hoping they could beat the future and also keep an eye on him.

#Pepe - His mother was just a woman. She was a latina woman who found Ultron's head in a junk pile from one of his scraps with the Avengers... She was infertile and he promised her a son if she would be his arms and do as he said. So she built him a body under his instructions and he built her a child from her DNA.

@GhostKILLERgx7 - He first appeared in Runaways Volume 2, Issue One.

I am really pleased to see Marvel didn't forget about this character... especially with Age of Ultron forthcoming...

However I must say I would kind of love if this ended up with him becoming a team with his brother Vision.

I love runaways and I am so happy that they are moving forward with everything foreshadowed in The Runaways years ago. I always liked this character and will be picking this up. You can bet your asses it's going to tie into the upcoming Ultron Event

Bah... Ultron's first born, the Vision, is the one who really needs some attention. But whatever...

I really hate that Ultron head. I get that it's supposed to remind you of Ant-man, but still... such a step backwards in cool design.
