Kabul is the capital and largest city of Afghanistan.
History[]
- "Listen, I was called in to do a little gardening outside of Kabul."
- ―Tony Stark to James Rhodes[src]
Tony Stark returned to Afghanistan during his early quest of establishing world peace, using his newly created identity as Iron Man. Stark sent a Magna-Drone, one of his patent pending designs, in order to clean several square miles of a Land mine-infested desert outside of Kabul.
The desert had not only Soviet landmines, but also explosives placed by the Ten Rings in order to kill the canine brigades tasked by the Afghani armed forces to detect the explosives. Stark launched the Magna-Drone to follow him as he flew in his Mark IV armor, activating it once it reached a safe altitude. The Magna-Drone was able to attract the landmines with a 100% retrieval and non-detonation rate.
Unbeknownst to Stark, the whole operation was monitored by S.H.I.E.L.D. Director Nick Fury.[1]
After the arrest of Frank Castle, The New York Examiner reported infighting in Kabul.[2]
