Who is Flying Tiger?

Born in the Bronze Age pages of Spider-Woman #40 in 1981, Flying Tiger is a Marvel villain with a sharp, predatory edge — a creation of Chris Claremont, Steve Leialoha, and Bob Wiacek who has proven surprisingly durable across more than four decades of comics. Affiliated with both A.I.M. and the notorious Batroc's Brigade, he runs with a genuinely dangerous crowd, sharing adventures with the likes of Captain America, Klaw, and Todd Arliss. His appearances across Spider-Woman, Captain America, and Thunderbolts trace a career that keeps pulling him back into Marvel's action-packed corners, making him a satisfying deep-cut discovery for any collector who loves a well-traveled Bronze Age bad guy.
