Summary

Aleksei Sytsevich was an ordinary member of the Russian mob up until he decided to undergo experimental gamma-ray treatments to pay for his family's immigration to the US. The gamma rays gave him super speed, durability, and strength. In addition, he was given an armored suit with a horn to make him even more dangerous. Rhino became a superpowered thug for hire, and clashed with many superheroes, notably Spider-Man and the Hulk. Despite his brutish demeanor, Aleksei is actually a tortured soul, stuck to his suit and reputation when he himself wants to lead a normal life. As such, recent years have him even team up with superheroes for temporary alliances.
