A hired gun
paid to kidnap businessman Regis Fusskey,
the Flying Tiger came
into Iron Man's history
because Fusskey just happened to be employing Jim
Rhodes -- who was playing
Iron Man at the time! Never a match for Shellhead, he just gave Rhodes
(in his civilian guise) a tough time -- knocking him around on a plane and in
the jungle. But once Rhodey got the armor on, all it took was a bare-handed
punch to lay out the Tiger!!
First ever appearance: Spider-Woman #40.
First IM appearance: Iron Man #177. Pic courtesy Unofficial Handbook to the Marvel Universe.
