Cyborg is a Creator/DCComics {{superhero}} created by Marv Wolfman and George Perez, first appearing in ''ComicBook/DCComicsPresents'' #26 in October of 1980. After being injured in a scientific accident that resulted in the death of his mother, high school athlete Victor Stone was outfitted with advanced ArtificialLimbs by his father, Silas.
Initially horrified by his new appearance, Victor would find a home and family with the newly-reformed Comicbook/TeenTitans, and remained with the team for a number of years as a charter member. As an adult, Cyborg eventually "graduated" from the team and briefly joined the JusticeLeagueOfAmerica alongside his former teammates ComicBook/{{Starfire}} and [[ComicBook/WonderGirl Donna Troy]]. As of the ComicBook/{{New 52}} ContinuityReboot, Cyborg is now a founding member of the Justice League. After 35 years of being a character, Cyborg would finally get his very first ongoing comic book, [[CharacterTitle titled Cyborg,]] starting July 2015.
Outside of comics, Cyborg has appeared in a number of adapted works, most notably as one of the main characters of the popular 2003-2006 ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'' animated series. Actor Ray Fisher has been cast as the character in the Film/DCExtendedUniverse, he appears as a footage cameo in ''Film/BatmanVSupermanDawnOfJustice'' and will be featured more prominently in ''[[Film/JusticeLeague2017 Justice League]]'' (2017).

!!Tropes associated with Cyborg include:
* TheAestheticsOfTechnology: Vic is repeatedly saddled with thick, bulky robotics that tend to emphasize his monstrous self-image, even though a character who's nature is associated by default with cutting-edge technology would nowadays quite reasonably be expected [[TechnologyMarchesOn to be slim and streamlined]]. Absent perhaps his braincase, there's [[TheArtifact really no reason]] for him to constantly look so inhuman. There have beens several instances where he gained a more streamlined or normal-looking appearance, only for StatusQuoIsGod to force him back to something closer to his classic look.
* AngryBlackMan: In his early years before his injuries, Victor was a surly troublemaker who resented his parents' manipulation of his life. However, it never extended to supporting a friend's grandiose plans for racially motivated terrorism and Victor eventually had to stop him by force as Cyborg.
* AscendedExtra: Thanks to GeoffJohns, Cyborg went from being a brief member of the JLA to one of the team's founders in the ComicBook/{{New 52}}. And, thanks to this, his appearances outside the comics have become more and more frequent. In ''ComicBook/{{Flashpoint}}'' he was depicted as Earth's greatest superhero without Superman around (of course, Aquaman and Wonder Woman had done a FaceHeelTurn).
* ArmCannon: Cyborg's trademark weapon is a sonic cannon built into his arm.
* ArtifactTitle: He was still called Cyborg in Devin Grayon's ''Titans'' run, even though technically, he wasn't a cyborg at all, just a human mind inside of a shapeshifting alien robot.
* ArtificialLimbs
* TheBigGuy: Especially in the ''Teen Titans'' cartoon.
* BlackAndNerdy: Cyborg is often the Titans' go-to tech guy.
* BodyHorror: Initially he was a straightforward cyborg, hand crafted by his father and would replace parts as they are damaged or worn out the same way someone would fix a car. Later versions have him blended with alien nano-tech that is constantly evolving, threatening to absorb or even discard the remaining organic components.
* BreakoutCharacter: He started as part of the ensemble of the Teen Titans, but as time went on he steadily was pushed further and further into the spotlight until he became one of the founding members of the Justice League in the ComicBook/{{New 52}} and {{Film/DCExtendedUniverse}}.
* CatchPhrase: Not official yet, but due to ''Teen Titans'', and many subsequent works continuing to cast Creator/KharyPayton as him, he's starting to pick up a habit of saying "Booyah!".
* ChromeChampion: During the period where his soul was inside the Omegadrome, Cyborg looked like a human with shiny gold skin and red eyes.
* CyberneticsEatYourSoul: Cyborg has feared this from time to time, especially in his early years with his prosthetics.
** This actually ''was'' his fate during the period from "Titans Hunt" through his "Cyberion" phase, until ''JLA/Titans'' actually DID return his soul to him ''literally.'' Why, yes, that period WAS [[UsefulNotes/TheDarkAgeOfComicBooks during the 90s]], how did you guess..?
* {{Cyborg}}: [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Well]], [[CaptainObvious duh]].
* DeathByOriginStory: The accident that injured him also killed his mother.
* EraSpecificPersonality: ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'' is what propelled him to be a more renowned character in the DC universe, but it catches some fans off guard in the original comics and other adaptations that he isn't a BoisterousBruiser FunPersonified as he was in the show. At his best he could be disarmingly friendly and casual but much of the time he is more pensive, concerned with CyberneticsEatYourSoul.
* EvilCounterpart: The end of ''ComicBook/TrinityWar'' introduces Grid; a supercomputer virus in control of a robot body. [[spoiler:Grid took over Cyborg's cybernetic body and tore it from Cyborg's human remains to make its body]].

* HeterosexualLifepartners: With Beast Boy. Later gets this with Shazam in the New 52.
* InstantArmor: For a time, Victor possessed the ability to instantly transform from a normal human appearance to his trademark Cyborg look. He lost this power shortly before to the 2003 Teen Titans relaunch. At the end of the first story arc from his New 52 solo series, he gets this ability again.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: When he was first introduced, Cyborg was the typical AngryBlackMan.

No, he was not the AngryBlackMan after all, it was a slow subversion.

* TheNicknamer: Has a nickname for just about everyone (such as "Goldie" for Starfire and "Witch" for Raven).
* PromotedToLoveInterest: In ''ComicBook/TeenTitansEarthOne'', he and Tara Markov (a.k.a Terra) are portrayed as a high-school couple, despite never having been shown to have any interest in each other in other continuities.
* TheSmartGuy: Though often in the role of TheBigGuy while working with the Titans, he's also generally the most technologically savvy of the team- meanwhile, his strength and durability pale in comparison to several FlyingBrick members of the Justice League, so his role as tech-savvy engineer has increased a good deal as well.
* SuperStrength: His cybernetic parts grant him some degree of enhanced-strength,but it's usually downplayed in favor of his other abilities. In the new 52 however, he has been shown to be strong enough to ''draw blood'' from Shazam/Captain Marvel, who has Superman-level of durability.

* WeCanRebuildHim: In both the original and ComicBook/{{New 52}} continuities, the major impetus behind giving Victor robotic body parts was to save his life. And he hated his dad because of this.

He became a silent automaton and LivingProp for the majority of the run until the Technis restored his mind--at the cost of him being turned into an emotionless techno-organic alien being, and then evolving into a robotic planetoid before the Titans restored him to a more humanoid form.
* TheWorfEffect: Since he's quite hard to kill (as he can just be rebuilt), Cyborg is usually the first one to be taken out in order to demonstrate how powerful a new foe is.

Cyborg is a Creator/DCComics {{superhero}} created by Marv Wolfman and George Perez, first appearing in ''ComicBook/DCComicsPresents'' #26 in October of 1980. After being injured in a scientific accident that resulted in the death of his mother, high school athlete Victor Stone was outfitted with advanced ArtificialLimbs by his father, Silas.
Initially horrified by his new appearance, Victor would find a home and family with the newly-reformed Comicbook/TeenTitans, and remained with the team for a number of years as a charter member. As an adult, Cyborg eventually "graduated" from the team and briefly joined the JusticeLeagueOfAmerica alongside his former teammates ComicBook/{{Starfire}} and [[ComicBook/WonderGirl Donna Troy]]. As of the ComicBook/{{New 52}} ContinuityReboot, Cyborg is now a founding member of the Justice League. After 35 years of being a character, Cyborg would finally get his very first ongoing comic book, [[CharacterTitle titled Cyborg,]] starting July 2015.
Outside of comics, Cyborg has appeared in a number of adapted works, most notably as one of the main characters of the popular 2003-2006 ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'' animated series. Actor Ray Fisher has been cast as the character in the Film/DCExtendedUniverse, he appears as a footage cameo in ''Film/BatmanVSupermanDawnOfJustice'' and will be featured more prominently in ''[[Film/JusticeLeague2017 Justice League]]'' (2017). A Cyborg-centric movie is also scheduled.

!!Tropes associated with Cyborg include:
* TheAestheticsOfTechnology: Vic is repeatedly saddled with thick, bulky robotics that tend to emphasize his monstrous self-image, even though a character who's nature is associated by default with cutting-edge technology would nowadays quite reasonably be expected [[TechnologyMarchesOn to be slim and streamlined]]. Absent perhaps his braincase, there's [[TheArtifact really no reason]] for him to constantly look so inhuman. There have beens several instances where he gained a more streamlined or normal-looking appearance, only for StatusQuoIsGod to force him back to something closer to his classic look.
* AngryBlackMan: In his early years before his injuries, Victor was a surly troublemaker who resented his parents' manipulation of his life. However, it never extended to supporting a friend's grandiose plans for racially motivated terrorism and Victor eventually had to stop him by force as Cyborg.
* AscendedExtra: Thanks to GeoffJohns, Cyborg went from being a brief member of the JLA to one of the team's founders in the ComicBook/{{New 52}}. And, thanks to this, his appearances outside the comics have become more and more frequent. In ''ComicBook/{{Flashpoint}}'' he was depicted as Earth's greatest superhero without Superman around (of course, Aquaman and Wonder Woman had done a FaceHeelTurn).
* ArmCannon: Cyborg's trademark weapon is a sonic cannon built into his arm.
* ArtifactTitle: He was still called Cyborg in Devin Grayon's ''Titans'' run, even though technically, he wasn't a cyborg at all, just a human mind inside of a shapeshifting alien robot.
* ArtificialLimbs
* TheBigGuy: Especially in the ''Teen Titans'' cartoon.
* BlackAndNerdy: Cyborg is often the Titans' go-to tech guy.
* BodyHorror: Initially he was a straightforward cyborg, hand crafted by his father and would replace parts as they are damaged or worn out the same way someone would fix a car. Later versions have him blended with alien nano-tech that is constantly evolving, threatening to absorb or even discard the remaining organic components.
* BreakoutCharacter: He started as part of the ensemble of the Teen Titans, but as time went on he steadily was pushed further and further into the spotlight until he became one of the founding members of the Justice League in the ComicBook/{{New 52}} and {{Film/DCExtendedUniverse}}.
* CatchPhrase: Not official yet, but due to ''Teen Titans'', and many subsequent works continuing to cast Creator/KharyPayton as him, he's starting to pick up a habit of saying "Booyah!".
* ChromeChampion: During the period where his soul was inside the Omegadrome, Cyborg looked like a human with shiny gold skin and red eyes.
* CyberneticsEatYourSoul: Cyborg has feared this from time to time, especially in his early years with his prosthetics.
** This actually ''was'' his fate during the period from "Titans Hunt" through his "Cyberion" phase, until ''JLA/Titans'' actually DID return his soul to him ''literally.'' Why, yes, that period WAS [[UsefulNotes/TheDarkAgeOfComicBooks during the 90s]], how did you guess..?
* {{Cyborg}}: [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Well]], [[CaptainObvious duh]].
* DeathByOriginStory: The accident that injured him also killed his mother.
