History
The Manipulator was a creation of Machinesmith.[1] The mysterious, apparently villainous robot was unaware that he was a machine. The Manipulator was quite interested in human behavior and how behavior is influenced by a number of factors. In his first appearance, he controlled the Beast and made him show a silly, simian behavior. He was seemingly with evil crime bosses, but then froze them. He let the police take them away, and let the Beast go (but he was unaware of what had happened).[2]
The Manipulator was struck in the head by a bullet fired by Brian Muldoon that ricocheted of Captain America's Shield and died while in shock of learning that he himself was not human, but an android creation.[3]Paraphernalia
