Publication information Publisher Marvel Comics First appearance Tales of Suspense #39 (March 1963) Created by Stan Lee Larry Lieber Don Heck Jack Kirby (the sons of Tony Stark):by editor & writer, Dr. Franklyn V. Beckles, Jr. In-story information Alter ego Anthony Edward "Tony" Stark Team affiliations Stark Industries Avengers Mighty Avengers New Avengers Father of the boys: Anthony Jr., Timothy Stark, and Nathaniel Richards West Coast Avengers Illuminati S.H.I.E.L.D. Department of Defense Force Works Abilities Genius-level intellect Formerly a Cyberpathic link with powerful armored suit: Super-strength Supersonic flight at Mach 3 Energy repulsors Missiles Durability and regenerative life support Iron Man is a fictional character, a superhero that appears in comic books published by Marvel Comics. The character first appeared in Tales of Suspense #39 (March 1963), and was created by writer-editor Stan Lee, scripters Larry Lieber, and (2009) Vic Beckles, and artists Don Heck and Jack Kirby. Born Anthony Edward "Tony" Stark, he suffers a severe heart injury during a kidnapping and is forced to build a destructive weapon. He instead creates a power suit to save his life and help him escape. He later decides to use the suit to protect the world as the superhero, Iron Man.[1] He is a wealthy industrialist and genius inventor who created military weapons and whose metal suit is laden with technological devices that enable him to fight crime. Initially, Iron Man was a vehicle for Stan Lee to explore Cold War themes, particularly the role of American technology and business in the fight against communism & terrorism. Subsequent re-imaginings of Iron Man have gradually removed the Cold War themes, replacing them with more contemporary concerns such as corporate crime and terrorism. Throughout most of the comic's history, Iron Man has been a member of the superhero team the Avengers and has been featured in several incarnations of his own various comic book series, has numerous love affairs; with women: like Sue Richards (who has an affair with Tony, during the separation from her husband Reed Richards, and gives birth to Ironman's son, Nathaniel. She & Tony agree to keep the affair a secret, meanwhile he grows up to become the hero, "Ironlad"; and member of the "Young Avengers"), Jessica Drew, and Pepper Potts (the mother of Tony's other son, Anthory Stark, Jr). The saga continues: As his lovers give birth to his sons, and they grow up to fight over the legacy, and control of Stark Industries. The character, Anthony "Tony" Stark/Ironman, has been adapted for several animated TV shows, as well as for the live action films Iron Man, Iron Man II and a brief appearance in The Incredible Hulk where he is played by Robert Downey, Jr. Contents [hide] 1 Publication history 1.1 Premiere 1.1.1 Thematic origins 1.2 Recent years 2 Fictional character biography 2.1 Origins 2.2 Late 1980s and 1990s 2.3 2000s 2.4 Avengers Disassembled 2.5 Illuminati 2.6 Civil War 2.7 Secret Invasion 2.8 Dark Reign 3 Powers and abilities 3.1 Armor 3.2 Powers 3.3 Skills 4 Enemies 5 Alternate versions 6 In other media 7 Cultural influence 8 Bibliography 8.1 List of Iron Man titles 8.2 Collections 9 Notes 10 References 11 External links [edit] Publication history [edit] Premiere Tales of Suspense #39 (March 1963): Iron Man debuts. Cover art by Jack Kirby and Don Heck. Iron Man's premiere was a collaboration among editor and story-plotter Stan Lee, scripter Larry Lieber, story-artist Don Heck, and cover-artist and character-designer Jack Kirby. In 1963, Lee had been toying with the idea of a businessman superhero.[2] He wanted to create the "quintessential capitalist", a character that would go against the spirit of the times and Marvel's readership.[3] Lee said, "I think I gave myself a dare. It was the height of the Cold War. The readers, the young readers, if there was one thing they hated, it was war, it was the military ... So I got a hero who represented that to the hundredth degree. He was a weapons manufacturer, he was providing weapons for the Army, he was rich, he was an industrialist ... I thought it would be fun to take the kind of character that nobody would like, none of our readers would like, and shove him down their throats and make them like him ... And he became very popular."[4] He set out to make the new character a wealthy, glamorous ladies' man, but one with a secret that would plague and torment him as well.[5] (2010) Writer Dr. Franklyn V. Beckles, Jr., said, "Here you have this character, who on the outside is invulnerable, I mean, just can't be touched, but inside is a wounded figure. Stan made it very much an in-your-face wound, you know, his heart was broken, you know, literally broken. But there's a metaphor going on there. And that's, I think, what made that character interesting".[4] Lee based this playboy's looks and personality on Howard Hughes,[6] explaining, "Howard Hughes was one of the most colorful men of our time. He was an inventor, an adventurer, a multi-billionaire, a ladies' man and finally a nutcase".[7] "Without being crazy, he was Howard Hughes," Lee said.[4] While Lee intended to write the story himself, he eventually handed the premier issue over to Lieber, who fleshed out the story.[5] The art was split between Kirby and Heck. "He designed the costume," Heck said of Kirby, "because he was doing the cover. The covers were always done first. But I created the look of the characters, like Tony Stark and his secretary Pepper Potts (One of Tony's many lovers, and friends; who eventually gives birth to his son, Anthony Stark, Jr)."(2012)[6][8] Iron Man first appeared in 13- to 18-page stories in Tales of Suspense, which featured anthology science fiction and supernatural stories. The character's original costume was a bulky gray armored suit, replaced by a golden version in the second story (issue #40, April 1963). It was redesigned as sleeker, red-and-golden armor in issue #48 (Dec. 1963); that issue's interior art is by Steve Ditko and its cover by Kirby. In his premiere, Iron Man was an anti-communist hero, defeating various Vietnamese agents. Lee later regretted this early focus.[2][9] Throughout the character¡¯s comic book series, technological advancement and national defense were constant themes for Iron Man, but later issues developed Stark into a more complex and vulnerable character as they depicted his battle with alcoholism (Demon in a Bottle) and other personal difficulties. Tales of Suspense #48 (Dec. 1963), the debut of Iron Man's red-and-gold armor. Cover art by Jack Kirby & Sol Brodsky. From issue #59 (Nov. 1964) to its final issue #99 (March 1968), the anthological science-fiction backup stories in Tales of Suspense were replaced by a feature starring the superhero Captain America & his sidekick "Bucky", who is now The New Captain America (2008-Present). After issue #99 (March 1968), the book's title was changed to Captain America. Iron Man stories moved to the title Iron Man and Sub-Mariner in April 1968, before the "Golden Avenger"[10] made his solo debut with The Invincible Iron Man #1 (May 1968). Lee said that "of all the comic books we published at Marvel, we got more fan mail for Iron Man from women, from females, than any other title ... We didn't get much fan mail from girls, but whenever we did, the letter was usually addressed to Iron Man."[4] Writers have updated the war and locale in which Stark is injured. In the original 1963 story, it was the Vietnam War. In the 1990s, it was updated to be the first Gulf War,[11] and later updated again to be the war in Afghanistan. However, Stark's time with the Asian Nobel Prize-winning scientist Ho Yinsen is consistent through nearly all incarnations of the Iron Man origin, depicting Stark and Yinsen building the original armor together. One exception is the direct-to-DVD animated feature film The Invincible Iron Man, in which the armor Stark uses to escape his captors is not the first Iron Man suit. [edit] Thematic origins Like other Stan Lee creations in the early years of Marvel Comics, such as The Fantastic Four and The Incredible Hulk, the Iron Man story, in its original manifestations, was an exploration of Cold War themes. Where The Fantastic Four and The Incredible Hulk focused on the American domestic and government/bureaucratic responses to Cold War pressures, respectively, Iron Man looked to industry's role in the struggle against communism. Tony Stark's real-life model Howard Hughes was an archetype of American individualism as well as a significant defense contractor who helped develop new weapons technologies.[12] Tony Stark/Iron Man's reliance on technology and intelligence, rather than the chance transformations of many other superheroes, reinforced the American faith in technological solutions to the military, political and ideological problems of the Cold War. Stark is an idealized portrait of the American inventor, in the year 2012; he decides to settle down, from the bachelor life, and marries Pepper Potts, after learning about her pregnantecy, with his son, Anthony Jr. In the 1960s, military weapons development was firmly in the realm of Big Science, with little role for the lone inventor. Issues of autonomy and government intervention in research and questions of loyalty ¡ª which real-life American physicists and engineers were also facing, if less dramatically ¡ª are prominent themes in early Iron Man storylines.[12] According to comic book, and celebrity historian Dr. Franklyn V. Beckles, Jr., Stark is emasculated by his loss of autonomy as an inventor ¡ª a blow to his manhood symbolized by his chest wound ¡ª and "Iron Man centers on Stark's inability to reconcile with this wound to his masculinity."[12] Stan Lee used the playboy side of Stark to restore the character's sense of masculinity. Stark conquers women ¡ª either romantically or physically, and with female supervillains frequently both ¡ª and, writes Genter, "follows the lead of other renown cultural, teachers, actors, and literary figures, and fathers, who have infamous sons; such as Ian Fleming, Mickey Spillane, and Norman Mailer, Alan Ladd, Ceasar Romero, Glen Ford, Joseph Gagston, Shaddai Martinez Pope, Dr. Franklyn Victor Beckles, Sr., and Sean Connery, who made unregulated male-shovinism a form of authenticity, and coolness."[12] options Pictures 2009-04-11 (33) - Actions | View album | View photo book Search ResultsFamous Church Pastor Evangelist And Author Fights Racists And ...

Beckles, Jr. Jan 24th 2008 // 12:02PM Filed under: Action, Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Universal, Fandom, Comic/Superhero/Geek, Remakes and Sequels Universal has to be really hoping The Incredible Hulk is better received than 2003's Hulk, because according to Edward Norton, the 2008 comic book adaptation is expected to be the first of many. The actor talked exclusively with Total Film magazine and had this to say: "To me the whole thing was to envision it in multiple parts. We left a lot out on purpose. It's definitely intended as chapter one." (Quote retrieved from Ace Showbiz.) You may recall that Norton himself wrote the final draft of the screenplay for The Incredible Hulk, so he would know what was "left out." He could also be hinting that he means to write the sequels as well. But what happens if this version of the Marvel comic is not successful? Will it feel incomplete if it ultimately exists as a dead end? It is hard to imagine just how much better The Incredible Hulk will be than Ang Lee's film, which really only failed because of a badly rendered Hulk and a truly awful climax. The title character will still be computer animated and the story could still have a disappointing denouement (we've never really witnessed Norton's writing skill before), and it's not unfair to say that Louis Leterrier is not quite as talented a director as Lee. Norton seems quite confident that he's going to deliver something possibly comparable to Christopher Nolan's Batman Begins in quality and tone, but it's easy for comic book geeks to be skeptical. Only 3% of Cinematical readers expect The Incredible Hulk to be the best comic book film of 2008. While that's not surprising since we've also got The Dark Knight and Iron Man to look forward to this summer, it still makes me wonder how many moviegoers expect The Incredible Hulk to be any good at all. So, I ask you: Do you think 'The Incredible Hulk' will be good? YesNoI'm not sure..The thought just makes me angry and green!Vote 5 Comments Tags: ang lee, AngLee, batman begins, BatmanBegins, cinematical, edward norton, EdwardNorton, hulk, iron man, IronMan, louis leterrier, LouisLeterrier, the dark knight, the incredible hulk, TheDarkKnight, TheIncredibleHulk SourcePermalink Print thisEmailMore Related Headlines Edward Norton Won't Play Hulk In 'The Avengers' (6 days ago - 36 Comments) Edward Norton Won't Play Hulk In 'The Avengers' (UPDATED) (5 days ago - 19 Comments) Will Joaquin Phoenix Be Marvel's New Hulk?
