Description

Machine Man  (Guy Gardner)

Aaron Stack (X-51)

X-51 was originally designed to be a killer as part of a US Army project to build robot soldiers. He had solar powered batteries built into his exoskeleton. All of the other robots in the series went insane after gaining sentience, while X-51, who has been called "the Robot with a soul", survived. He was raised as the human son of his creator, Dr. Abel Stack, who later died in an attempt to protect his "son" from a bomb intended for him.

Stack was in Richmond’s files from his days with the Defenders. When Kyle approached him, he was a bit taken aback. He had no interest in being on a team. It wasn’t until Richmond agreed and said Jocasta would probably be a better fit at any rate. This infuriated Aaron. He delved into a diatribe on how he was infinitely more capable than Hank Pym’s sloppy seconds. He later joined under protest.

Powers:

Machine Man's powers include super-human strength, speed, durability and endurance. His body is made of titanium, and he has a cybernetic brain that gives him superhuman analytical ability. He has telescopic and detachable limbs which can be controlled when separated from the body.

Along with the built-in abilities for defense, X-51 has a multitude of devices, including anti-gravity generators that allow him to fly, built into his body. He also has sensors with zoom and magnifying capabilities, various radars, a chromatograph, seismometer, audiometer, transceiver and gravity wave detector. His fingertips contain lasers. He is virtually immortal as long as his programming/consciousness is kept secure. Any damage done to his body can simply be repaired.
