Iron Man

Tony Stark is an eccentric self-described genius, billionaire, playboy and philanthropist and the former head of Stark Industries. Using his own great wealth and exceptional technical knowledge, Stark enjoyed the playboy lifestyle for many years until he was kidnapped by The Ten Rings. With his life on the line, Stark created an armored suit which he used to escape his captors, returning home and becoming the armored superhero known as Iron Man, battling against terrorists as well as his own former business partner Obadiah Stane. Stark enjoyed the fame that came with his new secret identity and decided to share it with the world, publicly announcing himself as Iron Man!

Fresh off from defeating enemies all over the world, Stark found himself dying due to his own Arc Reactor poisoning his body, all while he was challenged by the vengeful terrorist, Ivan Vanko who attempted to destroy his legacy. This was causing Stark to overthink things and he began thinking he will die, he made Pepper Potts CEO of Stark Industries and makes Natalie Rushman his new assistant. Later on throughout the story, Tonys best friend W|Rhodes left him stealing one of his armors, and Natalie turned out to be a S.H.I.E.L.D operative that was keeping tabs on Tony for her employer Director Fury (which will come into play later on in his life). During this journey, he regained the friendship of Rhodes, one of his rivals (Hammer Tech) was selling tech to Ivan, but in the end. His friend (now partner) War Machine and himself defeated Hammers machines and exposed him.

Bringing all the attention from all these conquests, more and more villains wanted access to the tech Tony used. And one of the villains that came close to this, was Ulysses Klaue. When Tony became aware of Klaues intentions of taking his possessions he began investigating. While doing this he came into contact with S.H.I.E.L.D once again, Fury offered him assistance with this if Tony offered assistance with a project that will come into play later (the Avengers). He agreed after some talking and was given a large lead and took it, he followed Klaue to a base in Sokovia and was ambushed and taken hostage. But luckily he escaped and defeated Klaue which placed him in a coma for a few months. After getting back to his home and readjusting, he was met by King T'Chaka of Wakanda. He was thanked for what he did to Ulysses, and given something by the King. Which he later foundout was all the information the Wakandens had on Tony, including past and suspected enemies..
