History:

(Iron Man IV#11 (fb) - BTS) - The famous scientist Ho Yinsen took on a military contract to develop his weapons. He was eventually imprisoned in an Afghani prison camp, where he ended up implanting a control device in the brain of inventor Anthony Stark, who would eventually become Iron Man. Eventually, the men who had had this control device implanted, Dennis Kellard, Ara Tanzerian, Zakim Karzai, Aftaab Lemar, and Karim Mahwash Najeeb, ordered Yinsen to be killed. They then hired Andrei Gorlovich to find the sending unit that would allow them to control Stark, which Yinsen had hid in his home. Gorlovich snuck into the house and murdered Mrs. Yinsen, not knowing that her young son was watching from the shadows. Years later, Yinsen's son obtained the sending unit and planned to force Iron Man to murder each of the men who had caused Ho's death.

(Iron Man IV#8 (fb) - BTS) - Kellard developed a name for himself as an arms merchant, best known for getting weapons to villains in Syria. Kellard was once the United Nations' star witness in Tanzerian's war-crimes trial.

(Iron Man IV#7) - Kellard boarded an international flight, flirting with the ticket agent on his way in.

(Iron Man IV#8) - Kellard started drinking on the plane before noticing Iron Man (Tony Stark) outside the window. The hero killed Kellard with a blast, also sending the plane crashing to the ground. Iron Man was being controlled from afar by the son of Ho Yinsen.
