Yuri Topolov (Earth-7045)

Yuri Topolov was a Russian rocket scientist who was exposed to radiation as a kid, resulting in his dwarf stature and a large cranium. Developing cancer, he was blackmailed into Boris Bullski post-communist conspiracy, gaining the codename Gargoyle, and ended up on the run after he was taken down by Iron Man. Encountering the Hulk when arriving in America, and a following standoff against the FSB, Topolov would succumb to his cancer and die in the aftermath.

The Gargoyle was extremely intelligent, observant and confident. He had contempt for all those around him as they were petrified by his personal and political power. Thus, Topolov preferred to handle delicate masters himself. In the field, he brought the spare minimum gear, confident in his superior plans. And he *did* fell the Hulk in three panels and one dart.

Whenever he allowed himself to think about his countenance and condition, the Gargoyle was prone to sink into depressive, crying fits. He would then rave about how he would give anything to be normal. When Banner turned him into a man again, he was full of maniacal hatred for the Soviet Union’s leader and everything he stood for.
