Aleksei Sytsevich was just another thug in the Russian Mafia, grasping at dreams of easy money and headed for a short brutal life. Seduced by promises of wealth and power, Aleksei underwent a life-threatening series of chemical and radiation treatments. After several months, Aleksei was transformed into a superhumanly strong agent with powerful armor, permanently bonded to his form, that was modeled after the hide of a rhinoceros.
Given the code-name Rhino, his first mission for the mafia was to kidnap astronaut John Jameson and sell him to the highest bidder. He received intensive sub-hypnotic training in American English and false citizenship papers bearing the name Alex O'Hirn. Feeling cocky, he turned on his benefactors, destroying their headquarters, and attempted to abduct Jameson under his own initiative. As the Rhino made his way towards New York City, Spider-Man began to formulate how to defeat this apparently unstoppable foe. Their clash would be repeated many times over the years as the power hungry Rhino accepted jobs from both the Kingpin and Green Goblin.
