Detailed Information of Superhero
Al-Thahab Al-Aswad (Earth-616)
Al-Thahab Al-Aswad was the first agent of the Aqirian super-team/secret police Hero Force, under the name of Black Gold.
He traveled to Great Britain along with president Abdi, and was presented to the press during a meeting about a potential treaty exchanging super-being training for Aqirian oil contracts.
While Abdi was parading in through London escorted by Black Gold, an Aqirian gay rights activist tried to shoot down the President, only to be stopped by Pete Wisdom while the bodyguard proved himself useless.

TRIVIA
Allegedly an "indestructible technology warrior", Black Gold's short career was marred by constant failure, being unable to spot a rather apparent sniper before he had already fired and was taken down by another and failing to hit a target who was, for the most part, standing still at a relatively short distance before finally, being utterly destroyed in a blast that his armour, costing ten million in research and development, failed to stop even slightly.
