HISTORY
Ian Heath, the Iron Corporal, was the son of an American steel magnate. Ian served as a volunteer in the Australian Army during World War II. He was known as the "Iron Corporal" as his ribcage had to be replaced with an artificial one, the original having been pulverized in a brutal assault that took place just before he became involved in the war. After the war, Ian was recruited by DANGER (Defense ★ Advanced ★ Network for ★ Geostrategic ★ Emergency ★ Response) the secret organization of the US government and later was in charge of gathering the Ultimate Super Agents (USA).
POWERS & WEAPONS
His chest was practically impenetrable, which gave him greater safety in the line of fire. It was flexible like a watch strap, and was built to the point where he could run, jump, and do everything as before, except float in water. He was told from the beginning that if he went into water up to his head, he would sink like a stone. Heath was also an above-average fighter, both with and without weapons, and a skilled tactician.
