Fictional Character Biography
Flipside was created during the Heroic Age, designed to mimic the appearance and powers of the first superhuman being that he came in contact with. For unknown reasons, he was put in stasis.
In the year 2099, he was discovered by a group of foragers led by Packrat, though they were unable to activate him. After surviving an explosion in the city of Nightshade, Spider-Man was found and brought to Packrat, who had him attempt to activate the robot, which was successful. As this era's Spider-Man did not exist in his outdated records, Flipside extrapolated based on his appearance, configuring himself into a combination of the original Spider-Man and Venom. Immediately after awakening, Flipside embraced Spider-Man and declared that they would be best friends. Flipside becomes a combination of Venom and Spider-Man after coming into contact with Spider-Man 2099.
However, Spider-Man rejected Flipside's affection, sending the android into a fit of rage. Flipside proceeded to smash the computer systems in Packrat's base before slaughtering many of Packrat's henchmen. In the ensuing fight between himself and Spider-Man, he was beheaded. After Spider-Man departs, Flipside repairs himself and turns on Packrat, giving him a head start.

Famous quotes containing the words fictional, character and/or biography:
“It is change, continuing change, inevitable change, that is the dominant factor in society today. No sensible decision can be made any longer without taking into account not only the world as it is, but the world as it will be.... This, in turn, means that our statesmen, our businessmen, our everyman must take on a science fictional way of thinking.”
—Isaac Asimov (1920–1992)
“Gross and obscure natures, however decorated, seem impure shambles; but character gives splendor to youth, and awe to wrinkled skin and gray hairs.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“In how few words, for instance, the Greeks would have told the story of Abelard and Heloise, making but a sentence of our classical dictionary.... We moderns, on the other hand, collect only the raw materials of biography and history, “memoirs to serve for a history,” which is but materials to serve for a mythology.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
