Aarkus (Earth-616) VS Aaron Stack (Earth-19121)

The Vision was a "Keeper of Law" on Smokeworld and was responsible for capturing the criminal who committed the first murder on Smokeworld in centuries. The Vision, assisted by the "Law-Giver", was looking for a suitable place of banishment for the murderer when he lucked into contact with an Earth scientist by the name of Markham Erickson. Erickson had pierced the spatial/dimensional barriers and asked the Vision to come to Earth to act as a super-powered guardian over humanity. The Vision's first attempt to come to Earth resulted in him going to Jupiter, where he left the murderer. The incident inspired him to devote himself to fighting crime.[2] Months after this encounter in November of 1940, the Vision was brought to Earth once again by Enoch Mason's "Dimensional Smasher" device. When mobster Brains Borelli sought to eliminate Mason and his daughter Sheila, for their inability to pay back the loan that Enoch got to fund his experiments, the Vision came to their aid. After the Vision turned Borelli over to the authorities he became an ally to the Masons.

Machine Man's history is presumably similar to his Earth-616 counterpart's. When intelligent zombies called the Respawned invaded Earth, a S.H.I.E.L.D./A.I.M. coalition assembled a team of robots called the Ennows to fight the zombies as machines couldn't be zombified. Machine Man was one of the robots. However, after the population of humans fell to almost nothing, the Ennows were left to own devices and and began fighting for themselves against the zombies. When a group of human survivors were attacked by a horde of Respawned, the Ennows, including Machine Man, fought them off. A fight almost broke out between the survivors and the Ennows, but it was quickly broken up. The survivors were then taken into Ennow custody with Machine Man ordering them taken to the holding bays. The Ennows planned to turn the survivors into machines through exposure to the Transmode Virus. However, the process was interrupted by a group of zombies consisting of superhumans with superhuman strength that were able to break through the Ennows' home, the Phalanx Wall. Machine Man was ripped to pieces by the zombies.
