I thought it was odd that Brian K. Vaughan gave two characters in Runaways the same first name: Victor Stein and Victor Mancha. Then it occurred to her that that might be part of why Chase is initially more hostile than any of the others toward Victor Mancha. Subconsciously, he connects him to his abusive father.
It always annoys This Troper that people keep calling Victor a cyborg when he is really more like a Terminator. But when I think about it more I realize that, yeah, he is a Terminator, in both design (a robot with human flesh grafted on to disguise its true nature) and function (meant to infiltrate a group of humans and kill them from the inside).
