Early Years
During his childhood, Adrian Toomes' parents died during his early years. Adrian was raised by his older brother Marcus and was found to be intelligent by his teachers at school.

As an adult, Adrian used his intelligence to work at Oscorp as a researcher on making refurbishing old or dying scientific advances in fresh, innovative ways, but was eventually decommissioned and was almost arrested after he was been framed by another colleague of stealing supplies in the company.

Starting over he became an electrical engineer and an inventor on his own, which led him to co-found the small firm of Bestman and Toomes Electronics, with his long-time friend in college, Gregory Bestman, who was his business partner.

Becoming the Vulture
Toomes devoted continuing the bulk of his time to his old pet project during his time at Oscorp, which is an electromagnetic harness that would enable its wearer to fly like a bird. The invention was eventually finished, thanks to the help of his friend and employee, Phineas Mason. However, this inattention to detail proved disastrous when it came to light that Bestman had been stealing Toomes' share of the company. He was eventually fired by his partner so he can own and control the whole company by himself.

Realizing the potential for revenge afforded by his groundbreaking invention and new-found strength, Toomes created the costumed identity of the Vulture. He ransacked Bestman's home, and attacked him after confessing that he was having a deal A.I.M. for Toomes' shares and other inventions in exchange for the gain of their company to rise in fame and popularity. Bestman was critically injured but survived due to his life being spared by the Vulture. He threatened him not to make a deal with the company once again or he'll comeback for him to kill him, or worse.

Encountering Spider-Man
Later, Bestman had also hired several A.I.M. agents to assassinate him, but all of them were eventually killed by Toomes' henchmen. Because of this, Vulture came back for Bestman by raiding their company's building, blowing up a section of the building into flames, and finally attempted to kill his partner once again, until the attempted assassination was eventually been interrupted by the masked hero, Spider-Man. They fought in the building out into the city, and in a cruise ship until he was finally been defeated by the hero. Their rivalry would eventually would eventually continue from time to time, making him to be one of Spidey's oldest and most formidable foes.

Prison Cell
During his time in prison, he eventually meet a fellow inmate named Blackie Drago, who had also been arrested after Spider-Man caught and stopped him from assassinating a famous politician. He told Adrian that he can tell him where his winged suit is secretly been kept, if he can get Blackie out of prison. Confused, Adrian questions how Adrian knew about the whereabouts of his suit. Blackie told him that A.I.M. had been keeping all his other inventions, (including the winged suit) since he was defeated by Spider-Man. Adrian agrees to his plan and tries to get him out of prison. Their plan was successful until the prison siren has been accidentally triggered by the other inmates. He and Blackie were running to the exit and were about to finally escape prison until Blackie betrayed him by thanking him for the suit (in which Blackie uses it later as the new Vulture) before knocking him out. He successfully escaped while Adrian was unconscious and was sent back to his cell.

From that point, Adrian had vowed his revenge against Blackie once he gets out of prison. He later escaped prison, during the Chitauri Invasion, and began a new start for his criminal career once again with the help of his former employee and friend Phineas Mason, who is now a criminal who undergoes the alias of the Tinkerer.

Upgrade
As a start of his new beginning as a criminal, he and Phineas reinvented his winged suit, only now his new suit is based and was made with Chitauri Technology that were scattered and recovered in the Chitauri Invasion, during the battle of New York, making a new upgrade to his brand new suit. He began his new career by robbing several banks in New York City and had been infiltrating and destroying several buildings from different organizations such as A.I.M., Roxxon Corporation, and even his old company, Bestman and Toomes Electronics which led to it's downfall and destruction. The aftermaths lead to the deaths and injuries several lives; worse it that most of them lost had their jobs after the following incidents.

He tried to infiltrate S.H.I.E.L.D. by breaking into the Triskelion but was interrupted once again by his long-time enemy, Spider-Man, with the Avengers. Once again, he was defeated but he manages to escape the authorities and went in hiding for a while, preparing before he can finally strike again.

The Sinister Six
After a while of keeping a low profile, he was found and confronted by Norman Osborn, revealing himself to be the Green Goblin and recruited him to join his team, a group consisting of seven villains that would want to hunt down and maybe even kill Spider-Man more than anything in their lives. This team would be later known as the Sinister Six, after Norman apparently died in a battle against S.H.I.E.L.D. during Ultimate War (although he is revealed to have survived), leaving Doctor Octopus to become the de-facto leader of the group. During his times as the Vulture, he would rejoin the team on-and-off several, depending on his reasons such as working alone into hunting down Spider-Man but had been convinced many times for him to join once again, frequently.

Break-In at the Baxter Building
At some point after the Secret Skrull Invasion, Adrian attempted to infiltrate the Baxter Building to steal advanced and classified technology formerly owned by Franklin Storm and some are formerly owned by the Skrulls, for his plans to upgrade his newly-invented lethal superweapon based on Chitauri-Skrull Tech, which is capable of releasing powerful shockwaves that could disintegrate organic matter stripping away their flesh and organs, it worked but it is still a prototype and is needed for an upgrade. He hacks into the computer, searching all information on the technology he needed, until he suddenly notices that someone named Valeria Toomes is working in the building as a biochemist. After reading the information that Valeria was an orphan, it was revealed that his daughter was in fact, alive after all. Adrian was surprised about the revelation, although he still remained focus on finishing his mission: stealing the supplies.

After stealing the supplies he needed he swiftly tries to fly away off the building but Ben Grimm, the Thing (who was currently in the building) manages to catch his feet before he could escape. He tried to use his new weapon on Ben but instead of his flesh and organs being stripped away, it only pushed and threw him far into their room, accidentally smashing and destroying several objects, including furniture. Weakened, Vulture tried to fire his weapon again but Ben immediately charges at him, throwing him into a room, not knowingly that he accidentally threw him into the extra-dimensional portal, not before Adrian who finally saw his daughter, all grown-up and was at the building at the time. His current whereabouts remain unknown.

Lost in the Wastelands
Adrian eventually woke up and found himself in another dimension from what is seems to be in a desert-like land. He got attacked by a pack of strange canine-like creatures but in the end he manages to kill them all quickly after he had felt sudden rage and anger, causing for his suit to be severely damaged. Stranded, he lied down, thinking about his daughter and and how proud he is that's she all grown-up. He accepted his fate of giving up, until a wake of a giant vulture-like creatures had arrived at the area and started scavenging the mutilated corpses of the deceased. Instead of devouring him, the creatures seemed to have gained respect on Toomes, showing their gratitude and loyalty to him for feeding them and because that, they s him saved him. They eventually flew him into the area where the wake live, wasteland full of scrapped metals and disposed wastes.

There he started to build his own empire and even fixed and upgraded his suit once again built with everything that he has scavenge in the wastes, from a Chitauri scrap metal to even an alternate reality version of the Reality Stone. With the help of the creatures, he ruled the Wastelands for a while and with the help of the reality stone, he manages to travel into several realities and created an army or a "Wake of Vultures," an army that contains several alternate versions of the winged villain. He remained in the Wastelands until he was rescued by the Fantastic Four, along with Spider-Man.

The Wake of Vultures
To be added.

Rehabilitation
Months after getting stranded in the Wastelands, Adrian is finally back at the normal reality, although he seems to be having a daily psychological treatment after getting psychological trauma since he was revealed stranded in the Wastelands for more than 30 years (30 years in the Wastelands is 3 months in the real world).
