55
56	The daughter of Ho Yinsen, Toni Ho worked as the director of engineering of Avengers Ideas Mechanics before taking up the role of the new Iron Patriot in American Intelligence Mechanics.
57	----
58	* AffirmativeActionLegacy: As the new Iron Patriot, an Asian lesbian.
59	* AlternateSelf: Had one in an undesignated universe where she was the girlfriend of [[Characters/CaptainAmericaHeroes Rikki Barnes]], who she was nothing but loving and kind to. This came to a tragic end when she was murdered by [[Characters/UltimateFantasticFour the Maker AKA the Reed Richards of Earth-1610]], with Rikki being killed only after she had died.
60	* AsianAndNerdy: Just like her dad.
61	* BattleCouple: With Aikku Jokinen, a.k.a. Enigma.
62	* TheCameo: Like Aikku above, she appears in the wedding crowd shot at the end of ''ComicBook/{{Empyre}}''.
63	* GadgeteerGenius: Capable of building a device to prevent Roberto Da Costa's powers from killing him using just some materials she found in the holding center they are trapped in. [[LockingMacGyverInTheStoreCupboard Like father like daughter]].
64	* LegacyCharacter: First she became the second Rescue, and later she became the third Iron Patriot.
65	* MiniMecha: Toni's Hulkbuster-esque heavy weapons Iron Patriot armor is quite big —roughly the size of Red Hulk— but not gigantic.
66	* PoweredArmor: Her main focus. She starts with a custom built Rescue armor, but then graduates to the Iron Patriot.
67	* RescueRomance: Pun aside, she fell in love with Aikku, and vice versa, while trying to figure out how to get her out of the Pod armored suit.
68	* TechnicalPacifist: Toni hates using violence and even admits that she doesn't know how to build a gun. Thus, her Iron Patriot armor is designed to use force fields to fight. Though as ''New Avengers'' shows, piss her off enough, and those forcefields can cut off a person's head. As the series goes on, Aikku points out the "technical" is becoming more and more suspect, and that those weapons Toni's developing sure look a hell of a lot like guns. Aikku has to actually correct her usage of [[AlmostLethalWeapons "nonlethal" to "less-than-lethal"]]. It's heavily implied, if not outright stated, that her reasons for this insistence is [[IAmNotHim to distance herself from Tony Stark]].
69	* TechnologicalPacifist: Allegedly, she's this. However, her use of her shields is clearly that of a weapon, not to mention her variety of other weapons like concussive shots.
70	* TeenGenius: Has three simultaneous doctorates at Caltech by the age of twenty.
71	* TwoferTokenMinority: An Asian lesbian.
72	* {{Workaholic}}: According to [[OfficialCouple Aikku]], she eats only once a day, twice if Aikku insists, and is nearly constantly focusing on improving her armor to the point of decreased emphasis on limiting lethality. Before that, her work focus was on [[RescueRomance saving Aikku from the Pod armor]].

93	* TheQuietOne: Pod very rarely speaks. Aikku, during her time with Avengers Intelligence Mechanics, tends to speak very little herself, beyond the occasional "okay". It later turns out the reason is because Aikku is ''not'' okay.

103	!!!'''Notable Aliases:''' "Tom Selleck Hulk," "Diet Rulk", Iron Hulk
104	!!!'''Team Affiliations:''' [[ComicBook/USAvengers American Intelligence Mechanics]]
105	!!!'''First Appearance:''' ''Avengers'' Vol. 6 #0 (December, 2015)[[note]]As Robert L. Maverick[[/note]]; ''U.S.Avengers #1'' (March, 2017)[[note]]As Red Hulk[[/note]]
106
107	After the events of Civil War 2 and the alliance formed between A.I.M. and the U.S.A. goverment, he is the new Red Hulk for the U.S.Avengers.
108	----
109	* ByThePowerOfGrayskull: "Hulk Plug-In, [[HulkingOut do your sluggin']]!"
110	* CoolShades: He's also usually seen with sunglasses.
111	* DePower: During ''Avengers: No Surrender'', the Immortal Hulk drains all the gamma radiation out of him.
112	* {{Expy}}: This guy exists solely because Marvel didn't let Al Ewing use Ross and make him Red Hulk again and the biggest difference is that he is even more of a GeneralRipper than Ross.
113	* GeneralRipper: How much so? General Ross thinks this guy goes ''[[ExaggeratedTrope too far]]''. For example, his response to A.I.M. operating on American soil was to immediately and angrily shoot down any possibility of talking to them in favour of letting loose the Amerikaiju.
114	* HourOfPower: His power-up only works for an hour, then takes a day to recharge. In the first issue he hulks out, his teammates watch him demolish a flying airbase within seconds of hulking out, and wonder what he's going to do with the remaining fifty-something minutes. The HYDRA moles within AIM manage to trick him by offering a work-around, which he accepts.
115	* SeenItAll: He's apparently had his own career dealing with mad science long before he shows up in ''New Avengers'', and as a result is not remotely threatened by the Maker's monologues.
116	* ShoutOut: His CatchPhrase seems to be an ''incredibly'' tongue-in-cheek one to the infamous ''The Thing'' segments of ''WesternAnimation/FredAndBarneyMeetTheThing''.
117	* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: [[http://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media/image/upload/t_original/zbhr5g8bxkbkcerp4xrr.png Look at this guy.]] OldSoldier and GeneralRipper Rulk with [[ManlyFacialHair a handlebar of sheer, unadulterated MAN!]] Oh, It's Thunderbolt Ross? Nope. Meet Robert Maverick, everybody.

134	* HeroOfAnotherStory: As the leader of an Avengers squad in her own time, Dani's had some adventures to her name, including team-ups with multiple versions of herself, and witnessing the death of Doctor Doom.
135	* LikeFatherUnlikeSon: Personality wise, she's ''nothing'' like her parents, having none of Luke's bellicosity or Jessica's truck worth of issues (or her potty-mouth).
136	* LuckilyMyShieldWillProtectMe: Captain America, remember? It's slightly more advanced than Steve's, coming with a thought-controlled projector, though she can also go traditional.
137	* NighInvulnerability: She's inherited her father's nigh-unbreakable skin.
138	* PointOfDivergence: As she reveals in ''U.S.Avengers'', her timeline's already split from the main one, back in ''Civil War II''.
139	* SaveTheVillain: Always tries to warn Green Skull's goons he'll kill them when he thinks it's funny, but they never listen.
140	* SleevesAreForWimps: Her outfits tend to eschew everything between the shoulders and elbows, though thanks to the bulletproof skin it's not as impractical as it could be.
141	* YearX: [=20XX=], where the double xs standing for around twenty to thirty years from "now".
