Bambi Arbogast

Dedicated Employee

During a flight home from Paris in a 747 jumbo jet, Tony Stark‘s plane had crashed in the Atlantic Ocean in the Demon In A Bottle story Arc. Mrs. Arbogast quickly dispatched James Rhodes to fly Stark International’s Jetcopter-One to assist Air-Sea Rescue in saving their boss.

Interesting Trivia

In Iron Man Vol. 1 # 123, Mrs. Arbogast is being bothered at her office desk by a worried Bethany Cabe who is inquiring about Tony Stark after his plane had crashed over the Atlantic. Mrs. Arbogast pays the young vixen no mind as she studies a dismissal notice. Artist John Romita, Jr. plays around with the Fourth Wall when he draws the list she’s holding with the following Marvel contributors’ names:

  • Bob Layton
  • Dave Michelinie
  • John Romita, Jr.
  • Roger Stern
  • Jim Shooter
  • Ben Sean
  • the final name is cut off and difficult to decipher

Frustrated, Bethany Cabe snatches the notice away from Mrs. Arbogast’s hands. Mrs. Arbogast tells her that she’s got work to do and condescendingly tries to send the intruder off on her way. Tony Stark then unexpectedly appears and prevents the argument from escalating any further by whisking away to his private quarters.
