Marc secretly attempted to moonlight as a vigilante crimefighter of sorts, despite the limited usefulness of his powers. While in pursuit of a Cobra Lord footman with a stolen purse, he encountered the hero Sabotage, who directed Marc to meet with someone who could help him harness his powers. After obtaining a suit and electronic apparatus with which he could project his voice for others to hear somewhat normally, he made up the identity of '''Communick''' and resumed his endeavor to become a hero in his own right-- encountering the Progeny by accident when his voice transmitted over their private communication network.

Even with taking into account his fairly young age, Marc has an unremarkable physical profile. He carries himself with a short and stocky build, and has a history of only engaging in minimal exercise-- enough to get him through an average day. He seems to have a greater than average stamina-- despite his lack of fitness-- compared to others with similar habits, though this tends to be counteracted by the fact that he is somewhat clumsy.

His frequency is tuned to justice.

Marc O'Neill isn't sure whether it was from a nasty flu or from screaming with the crowds at a Foxbatcon-- but when his mutant powers manifested, his perceived inability to speak isolated him from his family and all else around him. It wasn't until his father turned on a radio a few weeks later when the nature of his abilities became clear: Marc's voice had changed to a form of electromagnetic signal.

Marc secretly attempted to moonlight as a vigilante crimefighter of sorts, despite the limited usefulness of his powers. While in pursuit of a Cobra Lord footman with a stolen purse, he encountered the hero Sabotage, who directed Marc to meet with someone who could help him harness his powers. After obtaining a suit and electronic apparatus with which he could project his voice for others to hear somewhat normally, he made up the identity of Communick and resumed his endeavor to become a hero in his own right-- encountering the Progeny by accident when his voice transmitted over their private communication network.

One of Marc's misadventures with the team has irrevocably changed the course of his life. While investigating the cause of several metahuman deaths, Marc chased after a drug dealer who was peddling a mutagenic serum-- only to be overwhelmed by the man and have some of his drug directly injected into his bloodstream. The experience was ultimately responsible for uncovering new abilities for Marc to develop, but such power came with a cost...
