Mad Dog Rassitano is a Marvel Comics fictional character that first appeared in The Mighty Thor #426 (1990). Mad Dog was created by Pittsburgh artist Ron Frenz.
Mad Dog was part of a human SWAT team, named Code: Blue, that dealt with super-powered criminals. The long-haired, wise-cracking Mad Dog specialized in all sorts of firearms and heavy weaponry.
Mad Dog returns in Amazing Spider-Girl #4. In this Marvel alternate future title, Mad Dog is completely shaven and now a bounty hunter with his own TV show.
Mad Dog now uses various super weaponry, ostensibly taken from the super-villains he brings to justice – though he has revealed to Spider-Girl that they are only replicas of the villains' weapons, made for the publicity.
