  I know he appeared in a 1912 issue of Boy's Best Story Paper, but I can't be sure (a) if he appeared in other earlier issues and (b) of the exact date, as the cover image is too blurry to be certain. I think it might have been 16th March 1912, but that's a best estimate.

CLARIFICATIONS: Not to be confused with

• Iron Man, Tony Stark and his successors, from Marvel Comics
• Iron Man, wartime Canadian hero
