Biography[]
Past[]
Billy was in the same class as Ben when the two were in Middle School. Despite having a genius level intellect, Billy was ignored by the others in favor of Ben. Deciding this shouldn't go on, Billy decided to banish Ben to Dimension 12 with a dimensional laser. This would backfire when Ben, in the middle of fighting a different villain, turned into Diamondhead to fight. This caused the laser's beam to redirect right back into Billy without Ben even knowing it. Billy was sent to Dimension 12, home of Computron and his minions, where the unique temporal flow prevented Billy's body from aging.
Ben 10: Omniverse[]
Billy would escape 5 years later, having taken control of Computron's forces and built a robotic assistant named Mazuma. During this time, Ben had saved the universe multiple times over and was a popular celebrity. Infuriated, Billy ordered his new minions to attack, with the intent of killing Ben. Ben did battle with the robots, with Billy smugly trying to get Ben's attention. Ben hadn't even known Billy existed, and simply assumed Billy was another fan. When the battle was over, Billy revealed his master plan, only for Ben to find it redundant, being Captain Nemesis had already tried such a thing. Angered, Billy used an age reversing ray on Ben and Rook, turning them into kids. Billy returned to Billions tower, where he lost control over the Dimension 12 robots, who opted to destroy the planet. Billy was booted out of the tower, forcing an uneasy alliance with Ben. As they ventured to the main room with the Dimension 12 portal, Ben brought up Billy's many flaws, especially about how nothing he's done was original. Ben and Rook begin fighting, only for Rook to lose the Proto-Tool mid battle. Wanting it for himself, Billy grabbed it and accidently fired a laser which caused it to ricochet around the lab, destroying the main controls for the portal. This caused it to create a black hole like effect, sucking everything in. Billy was saved at the last minute, trying to claim victory over it. Billy was arrested soon after.
During the episode, The Vengers, Billy and Mazuma got together with former heroes Captain Nemesis and Kangaroo Commando, both of whom were outshined by Ben and wanted revenge too. Billy created a team of "heroes", he called The Vengers, to outshine Ben and run him out of town. By paying off local criminals and having news reporter Will Harangue edit footage, Billy made himself and his team look better. The Vengers proceeded to ambush Ben in an alleyway where they were defeated by Brainstorm. Billy simply scoffed, believing Ben was being a sore loser. Ben claimed he had decided to quit, apparently fed up with Billy's annoyance. In actuality, Brainstorm's intelligence came up with the plan to discredit The Vengers. With Ben out of the way, The Vengers' collective egos wouldn't allow them to work together as a proper team. In doing so, they ended up causing a full-on war between Billy and Mazuma vs. Captain Nemesis and Kangaroo Commando. Ben went to Billion's Tower to stop this, where he revealed his plan. This had the unintended side effect of causing the Vengers to attack him. Harangue showed up with a news crew to document Ben apparently attacking Billions, where Billy arogantly revealed his deception on live TV. After being defeated, Billy and the Vengers left Bellwood.
Trivia[]
- It was confirmed by Derrick J Wyatt, that in Ben 10,000's timeline, Billy is still the same height, just wrinkled.
