Tony Shark was once a successful electrical engineer for NoVaCom, a defense contractor who performs work for the Federal Government. When his clearance was revoked due to multiple DUI arrests he turned his attentions into destroying NoVaCom. With the help of the notorious Dr. Funk, he became the armored juggernaut known as SteelDude.

SteelDude is rarely successful due to his excessive drinking. He makes too many poor decisions, and is usually caught and arrested. Even though he is a drunk and mentally unstable, he is an intellectual genius. His power suit makes him dangerous opponent. He cares little for others, and though he hasn’t killed yet, it would make no difference to him if he did.

Lately his need for money has sent him on a crime spree. He has robbed two banks, and eleven liquor stores. Due to his deepening dependency to alcohol and his high rate of failure Tony has very little street cred, most people refuse to call him by his self given code name "SteelDude"
