Q: The magic and the mundane, man of two worlds

A Rogue Ant.I remember a book leant to me, middle-part of a series (?) in the early-mid 1990's, written in English. The protagonist possessed the ability to move between the mundane world of his not-especially-exciting life into a magical world. In the real-world, he was no-one in particular, a dull job, sin...

Peter NielsenColonel James "Rhodey" Rhodes was present during Stark's kidnapping in Marvel Studios' Iron Man (2008) - in fact, he was in the Humvee behind him (dubbed the "Hum-drumvee" by Stark just minutes before the attack).
