Professor Yinsen was a Chinese physicist in Vietnam. Vehemently anti-communist, Yinsen was captured by communist forces in Vietnam in 1963. He and Tony Stark were blackmailed into developing a weapon for communist leader Wong-Chu, but instead designed the original Iron Man suit together. Yinsen sacrificed his life distracting communist soldiers in order for Stark to don the life-saving suit in time, allowing him to become one of the world's greatest heroes.[1]
