Iron Man Page #3

Synopsis: Tony Stark. Genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist. Son of legendary inventor and weapons contractor Howard Stark. When Tony Stark is assigned to give a weapons presentation to an Iraqi unit led by Lt. Col. James Rhodes, he's given a ride on enemy lines. That ride ends badly when Stark's Humvee that he's riding in is attacked by enemy combatants. He survives - barely - with a chest full of shrapnel and a car battery attached to his heart. In order to survive he comes up with a way to miniaturize the battery and figures out that the battery can power something else. Thus Iron Man is born. He uses the primitive device to escape from the cave in Iraq. Once back home, he then begins work on perfecting the Iron Man suit. But the man who was put in charge of Stark Industries has plans of his own to take over Tony's technology for other matters.

- Nothing.

C'mon, sourpatch,

don't be mad.

I told you I'm not mad,

I'm indifferent, okay?

- I said I was sorry.

- Good morning, Mr. Stark.

- No need to apologize.

- I told him I was sorry but he...

I'm just indifferent right now.

You don't respect yourself,

so I know you don't respect me.

- I respect you.

- I'm just your babysitter,

and so, when you need your

diaper changed, thank you...

let me know and I'll

get you a bottle, okay?

Hey, heat up the sake, will you?

Thanks for reminding me.

I'm not talking... we're not drinking,

we're working right now.

And you are constitutionally

incapable of being responsible.

It would be irresponsible

not to drink.

I'm just talking about

the night cup. - Hot sake?

- Yes, two please.

- No, just...

I'm not drinking,

I don't want any.

That's what I'm talking about.

When I get up in the morning,

and I'm putting on my uniform,

you know what I recognize?

I see in that mirror that every

person that's got this uniform

will get my back! - Here we

go again. I'm not like you.

No, you don't have to be like me.

But you're more than... yes you are.

Will you excuse me,

I'm a little bit distracted here.

No, you can't be distracted

right now. Listen to me!

BAGRAM AIR BASE,

AFGHANISTAN:

General.

Welcome, Mr. Stark.

We look forward to your

weapons presentation.

Is it better to be feared

or respected?

And I say, is it too much

to ask for both?

With that in mind, I humbly

present the crown jewel

of Stark Industries freedom line.

It's the first missile system

to incorporate our proprietary

repulsor technology.

They say the best weapon is

one you never have to fire.

I respectfully disagree.

I prefer the weapon you

only have to fire once.

That's how dad did it,

that's how America does it...

and it's worked out

pretty well so far.

Find an excuse to let

one of these off the chain,

and I personally guarantee you

the bad guys won't even want

to come out of their caves.

For your consideration,

the Jericho.

We throw one of these in with every

purchase of 500 million or more.

To peace!

- Tony.

- Obie, what are you doing up?

I couldn't sleep till I found out

how it went. How did it go?

Went great, looks like it's

gonna be an early Christmas.

Hey, way to go, my boy.

I'll see you tomorrow, yeah?

Why aren't you wearing

those pyjamas I got you?

Good night, Tony.

Hey Tony!

I'm sorry, this is the fun-vee.

The hum-drum-vee is back there.

- Nice job.

- See you back at base.

I wouldn't do that if I were you.

What the hell did you do to me?

What I did?

What I did is to save your life.

I removed all the shrapnel I could,

but there's a lot left,

and it's headed into
