The Rattler (Gustav Krueger) is a fictional character from the Marvel Comics Universe, and is a member of the Serpent Society. ==Fictional character biography== Hailing from Germany,〔more than one ''Official Handbook to the Marvel Universe'' source lists him as being born in "Breslau, Germany". In 1945, the city became part of Poland as Wrocław. Therefore, in his lifetime there was no such place as "Breslau, Germany," making his known birthplace apparently erroneous.〕 Rattler was given a bionic tail which he uses to create shockwaves and vibrations. This proved very useful in his first confrontation with Captain America, during the Rattler's initiation into the Serpent Society. He and his fellow Serpents Cobra and Anaconda were ambushed by the hero, but Rattler was able to use his tail to stop Captain America's shield from doing any damage.〔''Captain America'' #310-311〕 With the other Serpent Society members, he was hired by A.I.M. to hunt down MODOK.〔''Captain America'' #313〕 He later battled Captain America again after being tricked by the Porcupine, along with Diamondback, Death Adder, and Cottonmouth. During the ensuing fight with Captain America, Rattler used his bionic tail to send vibrations coursing through the hero's body, disorienting him. However, he was eventually thrown into a pillar by his tail, knocking him out for the battle. Rattler, Cottonmouth, and Death Adder were sent to jail, but freed from jail by Sidewinder.〔''Captain America'' #315〕 Alongside Cottonmouth, Rattler confronted Kingpin's men over the Death Adder's murder.〔''Captain America'' #319〕 The Rattler joined Viper during her invasion of the Serpent Society, and battled the Falcon.〔''Captain America'' #341-343〕 He subsequently followed Cobra's instructions when he became leader. He participated in the Serpent Society mission to recover mystic objects for Ghaur and Llyra. During the battle with the X-Men after Longshot had found the missing artifact they were searching for, Rattler created an avalanche by rattling his tail, though this took both Longshot and Rattler out in the process.〔''Uncanny X-Men Annual'' #13〕 Rattler voted against Diamondback during the Serpent Society's trial of her; alongside the Serpent Society, he then battled Captain America, Paladin, and Diamondback.〔''Captain America'' #380-382〕 The Rattler also participated in the battle against Force Works, where he initiated use of his "Rattling Gun", a gun that could supposedly create enough seismic waves to rattle someone's ribcage apart. He was eventually defeated by Hank Pym.〔''Captain America'' #434-437〕 He has been seen as member of the Serpent Society under Cobra's leadership. After the group had captured and chained Captain America and Diamondback (really an L.M.D.) in this underground New York headquarters the pair escaped. S.H.I.E.L.D. subsequently took Rattler and the rest of the Society into custody.〔''Captain America'' vol. 4 #30-31〕 Very little is known about Rattler's past. He was very popular with the ladies of the Serpent Society, as Black Mamba recommended him to Diamondback for a "good time." Rattler joined the group of criminals aiding the Thunderbolts during The Civil War, alongside fellow Serpent Society members Cobra and Bushmaster.〔''Thundelbolts'' vol.2 #104〕 He appeared in ''Brand New Day'' as one of the villains in the bar.〔''Amazing Spider-Man'' #562-563〕 Rattler was later killed by Scourge.〔''Captain America'' vol. 6 #12〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rattler (comics)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
