or I guess just Eddie's because I've done this with older characters before

(if anyone wants anything then I will do additional)

so Eddie's biodad is Jacob Meyers and he was a pretty decent dad. he was a little too wrapped up in his work, but he was doing what he could to provide for his family and Eddie was too young to really notice

Myers* (swype likes to add an extra e apparently)

but adult Eddie doesn't consider Jacob his dad, because of how his dad (inadvertently) abandoned him after his accident, as the Myers' truly believed Eddie died

and that the robot boy some random supervillain showed up at their doorstep with bearing their dead son's face was a cruel prank at their expense

which left Eddie in a bind with nowhere really to turn... leading him to the man who he considers his only dad

Malcom Davis, aka the Malcontent, is/was the de facto leader of a group of likeminded supervillain friends known as the Blackguard, and had been minding his own damn business when a superhero calling herself Sage Wonder decided he was up to no good and causing massive plant-related property damage

he was the only one of the pair to see a kid wander into the fight zone (he wasn't even fighting tbh, he just wanted to leave), but not in time to stop the kid from getting hurt. he managed to get the kid out of there, but his scientist buddy couldn't save the kid's body

so they fixed him as best they could, and once he was up and could use his new shell tried to bring him home. except the parents rejected the kid and called the cops on them

Malcom barely had his own shit together but couldn't leave the kid alone, and wound up ultimately taking him, doing his best to raise a kid without screwing him up too bad

as far as Eddie is concerned, Malcom knocked it out of the park. He's grew attached to Mr. Davis (then Mr. Malcolm, to eventually dad) pretty quickly, and appreciated all he did for him

Eddie's dad's name is Malcolm. M a l c o l m (swype apparently doesn't know how to spell this name)

he's still incredibly close to his dad to this day, though part of it is steeped in a bit of fear/anxiety on Eddie's part

when he was about 11 or so, him and his dad were out when an old time superhero named Captain Radiance recognized Malcolm and jumped to the conclusion that Malcolm had kidnapped Eddie and attacked him

Eddie screamed for the guy to stop and that Malcolm was his dad, but the guy wouldn't listen, leaving Malcolm pretty badly injured and kidnapping Eddie to "bring him home to his real folks"

the rest of the Blackguard banded together and got Eddie back and Malcolm to help, and while he mostly made a full recovery he has a leg that acts up to this day

and every time it does it reminds Eddie of his own helplessness at the time and how he's trying to over correct himself in the present

Malcolm actually tried to get Eddie to reconnect with his bio parents when his bio family realized he was actually alive (when Eddie had to go to court as an adult to have himself declared alive as his bio parents had him declared dead as a kid), but it blew up spectacularly when they said some negative things about his dad

and he wants nothing to do with them

and that's why Eddie won't shut up about how awesome his dad is if you ask him
