Adrian Toomes, the owner of Toomes Aerodynamics, was obsessed with flying began using his company to research anti-gravity fields. Feeling that he was wasting time and resources, Norman Osborn attempted to strong arm Toomes Aerodynamics stockholders into letting him buy the company and merge it with Oscorp. And, just in time, Toomes finally mastered anti-gravity flight and created a set of wings that enabled him to fly. After briefly using this technology to seek revenge on Osborn, he soon turned his attention to the mystical Tablet of Time, an artifact that allowed him to absorb a person's youth.

After using the youth sucking device on Spider-Man, he inadvertently absorbed his mutation disease and began mutating into a Man-Spider. After Curt Conners tricked The Vulture into permentantly taking the disease - and curing Spider-Man - Toomes was unable to control his youth absorption abilities. He eventually used what he learned from the Tablet of Time to stop the mutations and retain his youth, eventually joining the Insidious Six.
