Iron Monger: Comic Book Origins

Iron Monger: Comic Book Origins
Subscribe: goo.gl/Q2kKrD
Iron Man has fought some of the strongest villains in the Marvel Universe, and in his recent film outings, some of those villains have joined Robert Downey Jr. on the big screen in the Iron Man films. The Iron Monger persona has been used by multiple people in the past, but most notably by Tony Stark's former friend Obadiah Stane, although his son Ezekiel Stane made some pretty impressive upgrades to the suit when he inherited it. Join WatchMojo as we explore the comic book origins of Iron Monger.

You could say Obadiah became nothing more than a "stain" on Iron Man's suit.

[@maxrogge9776]

Jamyang Pelsang funny

[@donathan2933]

Ohhhh yes good one

[@Banana-vu3rf]

Ok best joke from iron man

[@ellnats]

considering he blew his own head off, id say thats a bit dark

[@coyotetu]

"Tony Stark was able to build this in a cave... with a box of scraps!" 14 years later, still one of the best delivered endorsements of a protagonist on film.

[@ellnats]

fun fact about the guy he was shouting that to, its the kid from A Christmas Story

[@megalon73]

We must never forget. He was a perfect Kickoff for MCU Villains. Jeff Bridges really made you believe he was, Obadiah Stane. he looks like what the character is in the Comic. well perfect cast for the Villain.

[@ShadowDurza]

You didn't mention that Stane had a fascination with chess because as a child he was a chess champion. But when he was going up against an opponent he knew he couldn't beat, he killed their pet dog so they would forfeit.

[@Mothlord03]

Wut

[@Percey_7]

John wick wants to know his location

[@supersonicfan7514]

Actually, his opponent didn’t forfeit. He was so distracted by his grief over the loss of his dog that Stane won easily. But you were pretty close.

[@ellnats]

okay now im glad he's dead, anyone who'd kill a dog in cold blood desrves death, the only reason a dog or animal should be put to death is if it ends them suffering

[@shamelabaza3572]

jeff bridges nailed iron monger

[@ellnats]

that's kinda debatable, but i still liked it, he really nailed the imposing voice

Stane's son . Looks like a nice idea for a Iron Man 4........

[@johntrek187]

King FelixJ...Connect the stories from Iron Man 1, 2, and 3 to craft a story to incorporate the Crimson Dynamo being Stain's son. All the different villians of Tony who rely on suits of armor, this would be easy and make perfect sense....

[@knightofarkronia8652]

King FelixJ Nah, I want to see them do the Mandarin. The REAL Mandarin.

[@isamarchambers]

Knight of Arkronia The MCU and the marvel comics are separate, thats why none of the marvel films have been 100% accurate to them. The producers and directors don't care about connecting the comics and the movies, and that's why i love the mandarin twist in iron man 3, it was funny, clever, and unexpected. And people fucking hated it because "iTs nOt aCcUrAtE tO tHe CoMiCs" like no one gives a fuck but you guys.

[@ellnats]

make it iron man 5, 4 needs to be the REAL mandarin

[@TaylorMade-ft6zd]

Theywon’t be a four 😢

[@jaredgarcia8638]

So Stane is Marvel's version of Lex Luthor.

[@gabestein1377]

Jared Garcia no

[@badmoviestudios8099]

The version of Lex Luthor to which you're referring to appeared two years later, in John Byrne's Superman relaunch. Before that, Lex Luthor was nothing like Stane.

Wouldn’t Norman Osborn fit that role more than Obadiah Stane?

[@isaiahsanders9418]

I Honestly Think Stane Didn’t Need The Iron Monger Suit To Take Down Tony In Fact He Was A Determent Business Man Who Was The CEO Of A Tech Industry That Is The Rival Of Stark Industries So He Could’ve Been A Criminal Mastermind Who Had The Money And Power To Hire Other Powerful Villains To Take Down Iron Man So He Obtain More Power And Uses His Wealth To Steal Tony’s Father’s Business And Destroy The Stark Family Legacy

And even when he went up against S.H.I.E.L.D. ,And the Marvel Knights Nick Fury which was R Rated .With a real look at old Nick Fury , And S.H.I.E.L.D .in the early 21 Century .But a Shellhead villain works today .Since do like IronMan even before he was on the Big Screen , Having a smackdown with old Captain America in Civil War .
