Rhino (Marvel)

Aleksei Sytsevich aka the Rhino, was a Russian immigrant who was succumbed to radioactive testing, granting him powerful superhuman strength and durability. He was also given a suit of tough, rhinoceros-like armor and horns for even more destructive capabilities. He has combated Spider-man many times, as well as the Hulk.

Rhino Reformed
Rhino later reformed from his criminal ways, but his identity was taken up by another unnamed criminal who wore a mechanical suit and became the All New Rhino. The two Rhinos battled, and the original Rhino killed the newer one.

The original Rhino has since returned to villainy, driven by his wife's death, and is a member of Doctor Octopus's new Sinister Six.

The Spectacular Spider-Man
In The Spectacular Spider-Man TV series, the Rhino was a criminal named Alex O'Hirn who was hired by the Big Man (along with his partner in crime, Flint Marko, who became Sandman) to become the Rhino and battle Spider-Man. After his first defeat, Rhino joined the Sinister Six twice, and continued to work for Doctor Octopus during the gang war.

Ultimate Spider-Man


In the Ultimate Spider-Man, Rhino's character was a little different. For excample; Alex O'Hirn was a scrawny nerd that was riding a mechanicle version of the Rhino, and probably twice as big. Another difference is that Rhino is reffered to as R.H.I.N.O. While Parker was in school, MJ overheard that R.H.I.N.O was on the loose. While Spider-man was searching for RHINO, there was terrible destruction thoughout Queens. After Spidey manage to catch up with RHINO, and chased RHINO. Due to his indestrucible armor, Spidey couldn't penitrate through RHINO and do some real damage. However, Spidey manage to hit RHINO with a wrecking ball and slam him into some canisters, creating a hole on RHINO's back. They fought each other inside a parking lot of a car sale shop. Spidey manage to grab onto RHINO's back punch the hole several times, causing RHINO to malfunction, forcing O' Hirn to exit the suit, only to be captured by Spider-Man.
