HISTORY
Victor Stone was a very promising young high school athlete at odds with his brilliant father Silas Stone, one of the top scientists at Star Labs. Vic was caught in an explosion at S.T.A.R. Labs when a nearby Father Box detonated. To save his life, Silas used cutting edge experimental technology (derived from: nanites, a Promethean skin graft, Doctor William Magnus' responsometer, Ivo Anthony's A-maze operating system, Ryan Choi's B-maze operating system and White Dwarf Stabilizer) to turn him into a Cyborg. Soon after this transformation, Cyborg met Aquaman, Batman, The Flash, Green Lantern, Superman and Wonder Woman while trying to control his new powers. Alongside these other heroes he helped fight off the alien invasion of Darkseid and his Parademon army. After defeating them, Cyborg taps into the alien technology to close the portals once Superman has hurled Darkseid back to Apokolips. This crisis leads humanity to begin to accept super-heroes.
