Iron Man Page #4

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.

your atrial septum.

Here, wanna see?

I have a souvenir.

Take a look.

I've seen many wounds

like that in my village.

We call them the walking dead.

Because in takes about a week for

the balls to reach the vital organs.

- What is this?

- That is an electromagnet.

Hooked up to a car battery.

And it's keeping the shrapnel

from entering your heart.

That's right. Smile!

We met once, you know.

At the technical

conference in Bern.

- Don't remember.

- No, you wouldn't.

If I had been that drunk,

I wouldn't have been able to stand,

much less give a lecture

on integrated circuits.

Where are we?

Come on, stand up.

Stand up.

Do as I do.

C'mon, put your hands up.

Those are my guns.

How did they get my guns?

Do you understand me?

Do as I do.

He says:
"Welcome Tony Stark,

the most famous mass murderer

in the history of America."

He is honored.

He wants you to build a missile.

The Jericho missile

that you demonstrated.

This one.

I refuse.

Tony!

He wants to know

what you think.

I think he got a lot

of my weapons.

He says they have everything you

need to build a Jericho missile.

He wants you to make

the list of materials.

He says for you to start

working immediately,

and when you're done,

he will set you free.

No, I won't.

No, he won't.

I'm sure they're

looking for you, Stark.

But they will never find

you in these mountains.

Look...

What you just saw...

that is your legacy, Stark.

Your life's work in the

hands of those murderers.

Is that how you want to go out?

Is this the last act of defiance

of the great Tony Stark?

Or are you going to do

something about it?

Why should I do anything?

They're gonna kill me, you...

Either way, if they don't,

I'll probably be dead in a week.

Well then... this is a very

important week for you, isn't it?

If this is gonna be my workstation,

I want it well lit,

I want all of these tools.

Welding gear, I don't care if it's

acetylene or propane.

I need a soldering station,

I need helmets,

I need goggles,

I would like a smelting cup.

I need two sets

of precision tools.

How many languages do you speak?

A lot. But apparently

not enough for this place.

They speak arabic,

urdu, dari, pashto,

mongolian, farsi, russian.

Who are these people?

They are your loyal

customers, sir.

They call themselves

The Ten Rings.

You know, we might

be more productive

if you include me in the

planning proces? - Aha.

Okay. We don't need this.

What is that?

That's palladium, 0.15 grams.

We need at least 1.6,

so why don't you go break

down the other eleven.

What are they doing?

Working.

Careful. Careful, we only

get one shot at this.

Relax, I've steady hands.
