[edit] Fictional history
Flying Tiger's true identity is unknown. A professional football player whose career was cut short, he developed a costume that enabled him to fly.
He started his criminal career as a mercenary assassin when he was hired to kill the original Spider-Woman. Some time after failing at this, he fought the Fantastic Four. He was later hired to kill businessmen Regis Fussky but was stopped from doing so by Iron Man/Jim Rhodes.
Most recently, Flying Tiger joined the Crimson Cowl's Masters of Evil. The group's plot to blackmail the governments of the world using a weather-controlling machine was stopped by the Thunderbolts.
Later in San Francisco, Flying Tiger was defeated by Armory. [1]
[edit] Equipment
Flying Tiger wears body armor under a tiger costume, and is capable of powered flight.
