A coda with incredible art by Barry Windsor-Smith consists of Stark’s haunted nightmare of the crimes he feels responsible for and his attempt to get past this part of his life. His guilt and feelings of ineffectiveness are best demonstrated in the last part of this trade. As a recovering alcoholic, Stark'ss control issues dominate his personality during this story. The weight of the deaths orchestrated by his technology being misused sends him into a frenzy, eventually causing Stark to kill someone himself by this point, Stark had been fighting his past as a weapons maker for years. More importantly, this is where Stark'ss paranoia and controlling tendencies come to the forefront. (The major exception to this is War Machine, but that armor has become so connected to Jim Rhodes that it almost goes forgotten that Stark wore it first.) He uses multiple armor types extensively for the first time, including the well-known Deep Sea and Stealth Armors. After years of using the distinctive Silver Centurion armor, Stark switches back to the red and gold which he will wear almost exclusively through the present day. Thanks to colorist Nel Yomtov (every Transformers fan just shuddered), everyone who has black hair has it rendered blue this includes Stark and Rhodes. The modern Iron Man is essentially defined here, starting with Stark’s infamous Jheri curl, which my generation remembers as his hairstyle on the Iron Man animated series. He loses his reputation, teammates and even has to fake his own death before he finally finishes his quest. What happens next can best be described as a roaring rampage of revenge as Iron Man goes from one villain to the next, shorting out their armor and trying to locate the last user. After an unsuccessful court battle, Stark is able to procure files on the whereabouts of his technology from fellow Avenger Ant-Man - all except one file. Many were leaked when Stane took over Stark’s company, and they are now in the possession of Justin Hammer, who applies them to the armors of his henchmen. Iron Man’s epic vendetta begins when his enemy Force becomes an ally and Stark discovers that Force's armor has elements of Stark’s designs. But the story is officially called “Stark Wars," mostly as a pun on Star Wars. Newcomers to the franchise might be asking: “Don’t you mean ‘Armor Wars?’” Yes, this collection is better known (and titled) as Armor Wars, and in fact, Marvel solicited an “Armor Wars II” which took up much of John Byrne’s time on the title a few years later. However, Stark’s insecurities are well-founded, and they mostly stem from one of the most famous Iron Man storylines: “Stark Wars.”

This is one of the major themes of the current Invincible Iron Man series and was also a major plot point in the second Iron Man film.
Another, even longer-running problem is Stark’s difficulty in keeping his technology out of the hands of his enemies. Tony Stark’s alcoholism is one recurring problem, resulting in two major story arcs, “Demon in a Bottle” and the “Stane Saga," the latter of which provided the villain Obidiah Stane for the first Iron Man film. Standing well over 6 feet tall, the Mk VII makes for a strikingly impressive and attention-grabbing display piece.Like many long-running comic book characters, Iron Man has a cyclical history. Lit from below by its illuminated base, the light glinting from its slightly bulkier shape and distinctive red, gold and silver armored shell, the Mk VII is an eye-catching and visually stunning suit of armor worthy of an Avenger. ‘Earths mightiest heroes’ type thing”īring a piece of Stark Tower into your home! Inspired by the suit created in the first Avengers movie, Sideshow’s Iron Man Mk VII Armor is a 1:1 scale, life-sized museum-quality replica that raises the bar for screen accuracy and detail.
