History:
Boris Turgenev probably had a background in science before being recruited the KGB and trained as an agent. He excelled at both the physical and mental training, becoming a competent agent and was initially partnered with the Black Widow. It can be assumed that they undertook many missions together, but it was only later revealed that Black Widow never liked Boris, despite many covert missions together, mostly because he was a glory seeker and egotistical. Boris' last mission was with the Black Widow, both sent to America as siblings, Boris being an undercover science teacher to study Stark Industries. This was a cover in order to kidnap recent defector Anton Venko, and kill Tony Stark and his bodyguard Iron Man. While Black Widow, going under the guise of Madame Natasha, distracted Tony Stark over dinner, Boris ventured into the restricted areas of Stark Industries.
He located Venko laboratory and used an acid spray to weaken the wall before ripping it apart to enter and surprise Venko. Before Venko could react, Boris used his Jet Paralyzer pistol and trapped him. He then placed him in a bag and began to play a recorded lecture of Venko's, to give the impression he was still there. He carried Venko off to a waiting Russian submarine, before returning to S.I. Once back in Venko's lab, Boris knew how to don and operate the Krashni Denamit or Crimson Dynamo suit. He then began to wreck Stark Industries.
Iron Man arrived on the scene and assumed it was Venko in the Crimson Dynamo suit. In an attempt to save a laser ray machine, currently being worked on by Venko, from destruction, Iron Man lifted it to remove it from the area, but was shot in the back and incapacitated by Boris. Boris then carried Iron Man to the submarine. Unable to remove Iron Man's suit and discover the identity of Stark's bodyguard, Boris left him with the imprisoned Venko in the sub and headed back, once again, to the laboratory to retrieve the laser ray machine. There he met up with the Black Widow.
Meanwhile on the submarine Iron Man and Venko managed to escape and
headed back to S.I. Confronting both Black Widow and the Crimson
Dynamo, Iron Man was nearly overpowered, but Venko shot Boris, still in
the Crimson Dynamo suit, with a prototype laser light pistol causing an
explosion that killed both Boris and Venko. The Black Widow managed to
escape capture during the chaos.
