Background
Anthon Thomas is a gifted young inventor and engineering prodigy, the son of Jabari Thomas, a NASA robotics engineer from Foggy Bottom, Washington D.C., and Maxine Mangaroo, a Jamaican native from Montego Bay. Raised between cultures and disciplines, Anthon inherited his father’s mechanical genius and his mother’s resilience.
A standout student, Anthon graduated from Benjamin Banneker Academic High School, earning a full scholarship to George Washington University. However, after his parents’ divorce and mounting personal turmoil, Anthon took a leave of absence to focus on a secret project an advanced armored system he had been developing in isolation.
Everything changed one afternoon near the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum.
When Anthon attempted to stop two criminals mugging an elderly woman, he was brutally beaten. Powerless and injured, he watched as the woman was fatally shot. The moment haunted him. Her death became the line that divided his life into before and after.
Consumed by guilt but driven by purpose Anthon vowed never to stand by helpless again.
That promise gave birth to Droid Man.
