Tigerman was the main bodyguard for Princess Ardala when William "Buck" Rogers returned to Earth in 2491.
Tigerman was described by Kane as also being an eunuch (BR25: "Awakening").
He was temporarily assigned to one of Ardala's sisters, possibly in exchange for Pantherman (BR25: "Flight of the War Witch").
Notes
- Tigerman is loosely based on the Tiger Men from Mars from the 1930s comics, who themselves made an appearance in 1934's Buck Rogers in the 25th Century -- An Interplanetary Battle with the Tiger Men of Mars.
- As with the characters of Kane and Dr. Theopolis, Tigerman is portrayed by a different performer in the series.
- In "Flight of the War Witch, Part II," Ardala christens her new bodyguard as "Pantherman," suggesting that she names her bodyguards after Earth animals.
