Bio:
Adrian Toomes is initially a legitimate businessman and engineer. As part of business he creates a super flight suit / harness that grants its user super strength. Excited about his new invention he goes to show it to his business partner. In the empty office of his business partner Toomes learns that his partner has extorted money from the business and the business has failed. Angry Toomes uses the suit to wreck the office. He leaves with the suit to use in a new career as a super villain.
The Vulture is the first villain that Spider-Man attempts to take pictures of to sell to the Daily Bugle. In his first battle with the Vulture he is beaten due to being distracted over the camera. The Vulture dropped Spider-Man into a water tower where he thought the sides would be too slippery for him to climb. Spider-Man however not only escapes but creates a device that shuts off the Vulture suit. He uses this device in the next confrontation as the two are airborne and they crash into a roof. After the crash the Vulture is unconscious and arrested by the police.
In the first iteration of the Sinister Six the Vulture is one of the main members. As Spider-Man battles through the Six the Vulture is the last villain before Doctor Octopus. The Vulture slightly forces Spider-Man to take off his webshooters but is still defeated when Spider-Man uses his own weapon a lasso against him. He then tells Spider-Man where the lair of Doctor Octopus was.
The Vulture has many schemes to increase his longevity, gain wealth and take vengeance on those who steal his technology. He later is diagnosed with cancer that is thought to be caused from his use of the Vulture suit. Fearing mortality he rushed to Aunt May begging her forgiveness for the killing of Nathan her former boyfriend. May refused to forgive the Vulture and he was returned to prison.
The Superior Spider-Man attempted to use the Vulture and other members of the Sinister Six as brain washed heroes called the Superior Six. However, the Vulture and the others eventually freed themselves and began to wreak havoc before eventually being stopped.
