Simon Williams was born the son of a rich family, and inherited the family's company and fortune. Despite this, he embezzled money from the company and was caught. The supervillain Baron Zemo found the desperate Williams and offered him a chance to escape by transforming him into the ion-powered Wonder Man. Wonder Man joined the Avengers on Zemo's behalf, but ultimately turned on Zemo and was apparently killed in doing so. He actually remained in a deathlike state of suspended animation for years, during which time the android Ultron based the brain of an android of his own, the Vision, upon that of Wonder Man.
