Justice (Vance Astrovik) is a superhero in the Marvel Universe and is a member of the New Warriors.
Origin[]
When Vance Astro, a time traveller, attempted to prevent himself from being trapped a thousand years in the future, he accidentally activated his past self's telekinetic powers, creating an alternate timeline.
Biography[]
Vance as Marvel Boy
Vance Astrovik was born in Saugerties, New York to Arnold and Norma Astrovik. Arnold was an abusive father, which was very difficult for Norma and Vance, a problem worsened when Arnold suspected his son was gay. Vance otherwise had a normal life until the day he met a version of himself from the future. The future version of himself was a mutant who was stranded in the far distant future due to an accident and looked to prevent it for his younger self. However, in encountering himself, he inadvertently triggered Vance's latent telekinetic abilities earlier than he otherwise would have and resulted in the creation of an alternate timeline.
As a child, Vance ran away from home, joining the circus and using his powers as part of a psychic act called "The Amazing Astrovic".
Powers[]
Justice is an alpha-level mutant with telekinesis. He can use his powers to move, lift, and manipulate matter using only his thoughts. Initially, Justice would experience headaches and nosebleeds when he used his powers to move very heavy objects, but his powers have evolved past that limit. Justice can focus his telekinetic energy to project bolts of psionic force that he calls “TK blasts” or “TK shoves”, create psychokinetic force fields, and fly at high speeds.
Media[]
- On the Fantastic Four animated series, Justice makes a brief cameo at the beginning of the episode "Doomsday" flying alongside Darkhawk as the Silver Surfer passes by both of them.
- Justice appears as a non-playable character in Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2, voiced by Sean Donnellan. He ends up under the control of the nanites and assists A-Bomb in fighting the heroes in Wakanda on the path to the Black Panther's palace. He mentions his past and his relationship with Firestar.
