Aleksei Sytsevich, a career criminal of Russian origin, was transformed into the supervillain known as the Rhino through experimental means. Seeking to enhance his physical capabilities, Sytsevich underwent a procedure that bonded him to a durable polymer suit resembling a rhinoceros. This process granted him immense strength, speed, and resilience, making him a formidable opponent.

The Rhino is primarily known as an adversary of Spider-Man, frequently clashing with the wall-crawler due to his destructive rampages and involvement in various criminal enterprises. He is often portrayed as lacking in intellect, relying on brute force to achieve his goals. Despite his limitations, his raw power makes him a persistent threat.

Beyond Spider-Man, the Rhino has also battled other heroes in the Marvel Universe. While primarily depicted as a villain, some storylines have explored moments of introspection and a desire for a more peaceful life, though these aspirations are usually short-lived. The Rhino's enduring presence is a testament to his established role as a heavy hitter in the criminal underworld.
