History

Bolton was sent by Mars to Earth on a mission of conquest and plunder to steal Earth's gold. He arrived on Earth in New York's Central Park, and was confronted by Spiderman, who had been chasing the petty criminal, Boomer. Using his own body as a projectile, Spider-Man was able to knock Vulcan unconscious, and with the help of a group of teen hotrodders restrain him with several weblines. Boomer, however, was still lurking in the area. After receiving a promise of allegiance from Vulcan, Boomer freed him by cutting the weblines with a pair of bolt cutters. Vulcan then used a specialized thunderbolt to launch Spider-Man towards space. Spider-Man was able to free himself from the thunderbolt by anchoring himself with a webline to the mast of The Empire State Building. Vulcan and Boomer proceeded downtown to loot the gold from The Bank of Nations, where Vulcan proved invulnerable to missile attacks. With Spider-Man's return, Vulcan attempted to destroy the wallcrawler with an indestructible homing thunderbolt. Spider-Man was able to use the thunderbolt's homing tendencies, however, to redirect it back towards Vulcan, who was then carried away by it into space Probably back to Mars However it is unknown what happened to valton after that but it can be asumed that he survived.[1]
