Aftaab Lemar was an Afghani terrorist and one of several men responsible for the murder of scientist Ho Yinsen. Fifteen years after Yinsen's death, Lemar was serving in Southern Iraq under the command of another of Yinsen's murderers, General Zakim Karzai. The son of Ho Yinsen, wishing to avenge his father's death, took control of Tony Stark as well as his bio-enhanced Extremis Armor and flew to Iraq. Iron Man grabbed both Lemar and Karzai, flew them high into the sky, then let them fall to their deaths.
