- August General in Iron/Fang Zhifu History Fang Zhifu was the leader of a special combat unit known as a Xeno-Team for the Chinese government. The Xeno-Teams responsibilities were to respond to alien attacks. When a spaceship crashed in Qinghai Province, Fang and his team were sent to attack and capture one of the aliens. The aliens were known as the Durlans and after their living ship had been shot down they used a biological attack, by shifting themselves into an alien Bacteria. Fang successfully defeated the aliens with the loss of most of his team and catching the disease. The Chinese were able to provide an experimental treatment for Fang, but the side effects were good and bad. His strength had been greatly increased but his skin began growing rusty plates of iron. His fiance broke off their engagement, but the Chinese government was very interested in his new abilities. With the technology that was reverse engineered from the Durlan space craft, three other members of the Great Ten were created and a new Chinese super team was formed. August Iron General appeared in the first seven weeks of the 52 series. He leads the Great Ten. China then joins Black Adam's coalition and send him to the talks with Russia's Rocket Red. When black Adam goes crazy the Great Ten try to stop him but August must authorize the US heroes coming into China to fight. Checkmate went to China to find out who was spying there for Kobra. The Great Ten intervened and subsequently there was a fight between the two teams before the Prime Minister and Alan Scott intervened and found out who was the traitor. This made China change it's veto on Checkmate. August Iron General became a Bishop, for the government organisation known as Checkmate though this is presumed that he is there only to spy for the Chinese Government is has been revealed that he has a lover in Ghost Fox Killer, a fellow hero in the Great Ten. Their relationship developed when they first met, Ghost Fox Killer being unable to touch others, August General was unaffected by her touch. Because of his appearance, no normal woman would ever want to touch him, so together they both found something special. Powers and Weapons His skin is an armored "biometal" and he uses an energy staff. The iron plating that is his skin is extremely durable and gives the General enhanced strength. The Bio-metallic plates are actually the Generals Skin. His genetic code was altered sufficiently by the Durlan shape-shifters shifting their forms into an infectious bacterial load, that ultimately changed the physical forms of a number of Fang's team. His powers are based on his altered physical form.
