Ivan/New Crime Boss

Ivan Vanko is the son of disgraced scientist Anton Vanko, a Russian physicist who helped Tony Stark's father Howard Stark to design the Arc Reactor. Anton Vanko was deported from the United States due to Howard Stark accusing him of selling Soviet-era weapons-grade plutonium to Pakistan. This caused Anton to serve 15 years in Kopeisk prison, fell into poverty and alcoholism, and also abused his son for many years. Ivan obtained the knowledge in the fields of physics and mechanical sciences and has also adopted his father's hatred for the Stark family.Few months back.

...

As living in their broken home, Ivan cared for his father Anton who has became older and more frail as their many years in exile went on. Anton is in bed watching the news footage of Tony Stark confessing to the world that he is Iron Man.

Anton called out weakly "Ivan".

As his son Ivan approached his bedside, Anton weakly gestured towards the television and said "That should be you".

Ivan adjusting his father blanket replied "Don't listen to that crap!".

Anton Vanko with his last remaining strength said "I'm sorry... All I can give you is my knowledge" before coughing and finally dying in his son's arm.

Feeling distraught, Ivan took a swig of vodka before screaming into the air in mournful rage "Arghhhh!!!".

Pulls out blueprints for an arc reactor based on his father's and Howard Stark's design, Ivan is able to create his own miniature arc reactor. With only revenge in his mind, Ivan also designed and constructed an exoskeleton with two electrified whips powered by the miniature arc reactor that could cut through almost anything. Wearing the exoskeleton, Ivan used the whip and slash at the television which is displaying the image of Tony Stark, destroying it.

Nightwing Base, Sunday

Tony is in the news, as he is attacked in Monaco racetrack by Ivan Vanko in his Whiplash Armor. The news showed the footage of the fight between Ironman and Whiplash.

As Iron Man wore is suitcase Ironman, Oracle said "We should build some armor similar like Iron Man for you too, Nightwing. What do you think?"

"Sure why not! Seems fun" I replied as I watched the fight between them with Ironman winning due to his better armor.

As Ivan is being drag away by the police, Ivan can be heard shouting "You… You lose. You lose Stark!".

Oracle called out to me "Nightwing, there is some chatter about a large shipment of drugs coming into Harlem's Shipping Docks tonight. Do you want to take it?".

While watching the monitor, I replied "Sure" as I pondered how much I should help Tony in facing his opponent, Whiplash or should I deal with him myself.

...

Shipment Docks in Harlem, New York, Night

I am currently on the rooftop of the building near the docks stalking a small group of people heading towards the shipping docks. Oracle has notified me of their illegal activities where a large shipment of drugs is coming in.

"The shipment is already here! We need to hurry! If we are late, Hammerhead will kill us!" said one of the men.

"Shut up! We don't want any of those vigilantes to notice us" one of the men responded in anger as he checked his surroundings carefully.

The group approached the dock while I carefully tailed them in the shadows of the darkness.

They entered a nearby warehouse at the docks which is filled with armed men with machine guns doing watch out and a group of men unloading boxes from the container into the truck.
