History
A noted security specialist, Vince Martell was placed in the witness relocation plan after he testified against the mob in Philadelphia. Forced to leave his wife and under his new name "Vic Martinelli" later became Security Chief for Stark International. Martinelli has proved his worth to the company on numerous occasions with his "no-nonsense" pragmatic approach. Martinelli was pictured in public relations material at Stark International which led to the underworld to hire Blacklash to assassinate Martinelli. Assisted by Iron Man, Martinelli was able to escape from Backlash and incapacitate the villain. Martinelli continued to work for Stark International and later Stane International when it was under the auspices of Obadiah Stane.[citation needed]
After losing his job, Martinelli fell back on his military intelligence background and eventually started working as an underground courier, transporting top-secret intel across the globe. He became involved with corrupt governments and even Hydra, at one point serving as a contractor for the terrorist organization. Martinelli's latest employee was a black market network called Source Control, which specialized in high-grade technology and weapons. When Source Control obtained the rings of the deceased Mandarin, Martinelli had a crisis of conscience and attempted to reach out to Iron Man and War Machine. After learning of Vic's actions, Source Control sent the Titanium Man after Martinelli. He brutally murdered Vic and retrieved the rings.[1]Attributes
