I told someone once that my favorite superhero was Iron Man. They said it was just because of the movies, but I always liked him before that 🙂

[@grudgematch6653]

Honestly I can’t really blame him for saying that.. a lot of people be saying black panther is their favorite just because of the movies so that concept does seem to happen often.

[@batmanfanizationreborn6055]

Cap: Big man in a suit of armor, take that off and what are you?! Tony: Genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist

[@kriss3d]

Cap isnt exactly boy wonder either. He just got lucky and was the one chosen to get the serum. He is a glorified lab rat who got lucky.

[@theweirdestsmartchannel1842]

Still got his ass beat by cap

[@theweirdestsmartchannel1842]

Also sure tony is smart but without that armor he would be killed in seconds as for cap he’d last longer also cap can also lifted Thor’s hammer soooo yea edit:take off his suit he’s a brave,morally right,patriot and his shield is stronger then Thor’s hammer

[@rolytt5580]

Weirdest smart Channel take of the super serum and what is he? Oh that’s right a scrawny little kid

[@theweirdestsmartchannel1842]

Roly TT he’s a brave fighter who can lift Thor’s hammer he’s morally right

[@kwstastt]

i remember reading the 1968 version of the origin of iron man and there was no hart problem ..the armour was only designed to escape. but later comics mentioned the armour was giving his hart dificulties.but no mention of the "magnet core" to keep his hurt safe.i thought that in 2006 movie they added that up but turns out it was the oginal pre 1968 story of origin..

[@twizzlerlemonpie3083]

Its pronounced heart*

[@GoHawgs1987]

In the early Tales of Suspense issues, he has to plug into an outlet to recharge his heart like every issue. Those started in '63.

[@12345678927164]

One things for sure, we need a GOOD Iron Man video game with mass effect type story telling and a kick ass upgrade system. Who's with me!

[@TeryJones]

It still amazes me how just one movie about Iron Man suddenly spawned a whole canon involving eleven other movies with ten more on the way.

[@paperboy1116]

It happened because of S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent Coleson mentioned at the end "Just call us SHIELD"

[@NicholasVetter-sy8io]

I also found it impressive that it turned a person that would usually likely be shooed off by diehard fans into one of the leading forces in Marvel alongside Spiderman, Hulk, Thor, and Captain America. In fact, the movies were possibly my first exposure to Iron Man, and I loved Iron Man ever since, still do, still sad that he died, but he died a noble death.

[@TeryJones]

Oh Christ I said this nine years ago? Fuck. How many movies and TV shows are we up to now? X _ X

Puie Monta this might sound weird but I like iron man a lot better than batman

[@puiemonta7436]

Sweet Sugar I do not have a problem with PERSONAL OPIONS You have the right to like what ever character. My problem is with people that want to make their personal opinion sound like a fact even if the fact are on the other side. Also , my opinion is that ironman from the cartoon was better done and more interesting then the one from movies.

[@kingpaid995]

Nathan Canada actually people would most likely care about him its just that no one would have knew RDJ for being iron man. Its like having a favorite food but if it was never made you wouldnt even care.

[@MachineFuckingHate]

I cared about Iron Man before I even heard of a name Robert Downey Jr.

[@kaiba-boi4256]

Nathan Canada well fun fact; nobody really cares about iron man, especially ”iron man fans”

[@brianthefanboy9019]

There was Iron Man: The Animated Series in the 90's and there was Iron Man Armor Adventures. And there is an Iron Man Anime.

[@JohnSmith-sy6zm]

Who would I rather be? Lets see, the super rich weapons developer, who has crazy parties and has a life, and is a public idol for everyone to worship and has made his identity public knowledge for everyone to know. Also, he has technology that might as well give him Super powers, can fly to space and lift over 100 tons. As well as being the greatest engineer ever! Or should I be the super rich guy who spends all his time in the dark, and though a great inventor, cannot seem to give myself flight, speed, or anything that is super huge above anyone else.... Hmmmmmm, which should I choose?

[@01oo011]

Take on Batman.

[@puiemonta7436]

Iron Man tony stark ,a lame imitation of BRUCE WAYNE. everlasting PATETHIC ATEMPT of a RIP-OFF.

[@Littlefool326]

Puie Monta You're very dumb. They both are very rich, have dead parents, And no super powers that's about it. Batman hides who he is while Iron Man is known to be Tony Stark. The way they fight crime is completely different. Their personalities are completely different but they're both still amazing in their respective ways. Next you're going to say that The Vision is a rip off of Superman because they can both fly and have capes.

[@chrisryan6630]

Puie Monta Oh really? One of the most popular fictional characters ever? Not really what I would call pathetic, plus just because they are both rich doesn't mean tony stark is a "rip-off", tony and bruce live an almost opposite lifestyle and fight crime in vastly different ways. Check your facts

[@lopoptop]

Are you a fan of Iron Man? I am Iron Man ... k then.

[@mr.ultimateavenger3260]

Best super hero ever made

[@puiemonta7436]

Warren Character tony stark , a lame IMITATION of BRUCE WAYNE Trying to copy BRUCE WAYNE and FAILING , that is tony stark explained

[@phillipsrulez]

Puie Monta You're comparing a counter terrorist in a combat exo suit who busts arms dealers, tyrants and corrupt weapons developers worldwide to a master martial artist who uses his forensics knowledge to fight phycopaths in gotham. You obviously know nothing of either characters.

[@puiemonta7436]

phillipsrulez I am comparing two characters that have no superpower, not many of them That BOTH lost theri parents when young That BOTH are RICH That BOTH act like A DOUCH That BOTH go to eastern places and come back as superheros That BOTH use TEHNOLOGY they usually made to fight crime That BOTH have problems with women That BOTH have a big tower named after theri family, WAYNE TOWER and stark tower That BOTH are members of theri team-up JUSTICE LEAGUE and the rip-off avengers That BOTH find out things from parents past That BOTH have invented an AI computer I could do this all day ...

[@phillipsrulez]

Puie Monta Still barely any similarities in the actual stories Stark lost his parents in his early adult life as opposed to Bruce whose loss of his parents was the reason he became the Batman, Stark and Bruce fight different types of crime i.e Terrorism vs Street crime. The similarities you list are akin to apples to oranges in that they are both fruit therefore the same .

[@puiemonta7436]

phillipsrulez The difference was just a few years. And let's be serious EVEN IF they woudl of lost their parents in the same day of their life , lets say day 100 of year 14, you STIIL WOUDL SAY that STILL BARELY ... We are talking about COMIC BOOK CHARACTERS, that means we are comparing things FROM SAME GENRE. If a car looks like a painting, you might say it is concidence, BUT IF A CAR LOOKS LIKE ANOTHER CAR THAT IS A RIP-OFF Also we are talking about one of the most FAMOUS of the company's characters. IF TOMORROW one of the BIGEST company's made a car, and a week later ANOTHER BIG COMPANY made a car that looks the same ??? Do you think the PUBLIC WILL SAY CONCIDENCE ??? Also Raz Al Ghul is A TERRORIST. Are you stupid OR JUST PRETENDING ?
