Victorius is a fictional character in the Marvel Universe.
Victor Conrad was a scientist working for A.I.M. who succeeded in duplicating the Super-Soldier Serum which had transformed Steve Rogers into Captain America. Conrad drank the serum himself and became a physically perfect human being. Naming himself Victorius, he first attempted to take over A.I.M. Failing to do so, he later adopted the death-worshipping philosophy of the Cult of Entropists and made himself the Cult's leader. He stole the Cosmic Cube and used it to create Jude the Entropic Man as a means of spreading destruction. Jude rebelled against Victorius, and when Jude, Victorius, the Cube, and the Man-Thing all came into physical contact with each other, Jude and Victorius were transformed into a form of radiant crystal.[1]
