Captured
In 2008, Stark was traveling to Hong Kong to show off his new Product. But on his way back to America, His Plane was shot down and was taken Captive in a Arctic Nuclear facility by a scientific research terrorist Group called A.I.M (Advanced idea Mechanics) led by Wong Chu, an associate who tried to force him to developed an Highly Advanced Weapons for their own evil Purposes. Stark then met his fellow Vietnam Captive, Ho Yinsin (who Stark admired in College .) who has mistaken Stark to be the Man to Developed Uni Beams and Hover Platforms to combined them into siege weapons to destroy Yinsin's hometown. Stark later then found out that his Sharpnal from the plane is piercing is Chest but was later saved by Ho Yinsin by implanting a High Powered Electromagnet to hold the sharpnel in place, Thus keeping him Alive.

Few months later after Stark has gone missing, Stark and fellow Captive decides to build a powered suit of armor to get them out. when they finished, they tried to escape, however, Yinsin was killed during the progress. meanwhile an Air Force lieutenant James Rhodes was tasked with debriefing Stark's Capture, The U.S. military and Rhodes found him and carried him to safety and Stark and Rhodes became close friends. Stark returned to America only to find out his Company is being sold to Obadiah Stane. Forced to leave his company soon, Stark employs a former boxer Harold "Happy" Hogan as a personal trainer and a bodyguard. Stark also met a 33 year old woman named Riri Williams who is willing to help him to take back his company while Stane is using all info of Stark's escape. A couple days later, A.I.M. Troops found the the remains of Stark's Prototype escape armor buried under the snow, Obadiah Stane made a deal with A.I.M to deliver a sample of the Armor to his office while at Stark Tower, Stark is recreating his armor suit with heavily armed advanced weaponry and a vastly upgraded design featuring flight capability and painted in Red and Gold, and also built a reliable and more powerful arc reactor to power his pacemaker and his suit, and this first suit is named MK 2.

Becoming a Hero
Later A.I.M. sent out a Giant Siege Robot onto Manhattan for a distraction for the U.S. Government while A.I.M. attacks a town in Latveria for their new base of operations with many people their in danger. After Tony defeating the Giant Robot with his armor suit and finding out it was sent by A.I.M., Tony was later told that A.I.M. was attacking a town and releasing siege bots and troops in Latveria, with Anger, Tony fly's there to put a stop to it and preventing innocent lives from being taken. Tony arrived and engaged the Attackers and quickly realizes that the tech A.I.M. was using were actually built with some Stark Industries Components. S.H.I.E.L.D. troops later arrived in the midst of the battle also with Stark's tech to help out Stark. The enemies were all defeated but Tony wasn't pleased that A.I.M. and S.H.I.E.L.D. has got their hands on Stark Tech.

As Tony Stark, he later Borders to S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Triskelion in New York City demanding explanation from Nick Fury. Nick later revealed that A.I.M. has been supplying weapons from Stark Industries every since his capture, S.H.I.E.L.D. looked into it and found out that someone in his company is selling weapons and tech to A.I.M. which means Tony's capture happened for a reason. And also Stark Industries is to only to supply weapons for S.H.I.E.L.D. and the U.S. Army, but Stark had a disagreement with Nick and wants to stop making weapons so they won't get into the wrong hands like A.I.M. While designing another Iron-Man suit, Stark discovers that Stane has been dealing under the table to A.I.M. Riri goes to Stark Industries to find anything she can to get Tony his company back, it was then she finds out it was Stane who told A.I.M. where and how to get to Stark and to capture him so Stane and A.I.M. could takeover Stark's company and is using all of his info on Iron-Man he can find to build his own suit he call The Iron-Monger. Riri escapes before Stane could arrived back at the company, when Stane finds out that Riri hacked in to the Mainframe, Stane got enraged and heads to a A.I.M.'s new hideout, there is where Wong Chu and Stane opperate a plan to have a group of A.I.M. hackers break into Tony's home and to steal all the information on the IronMan armor to make more suits for evil purposes. Stane then orders a bunch of A.I.M scientists to build The Iron Monger Armor right away while Stane and the A.I.M. Hackers managed to brake into Tony's home. Stane managed to stun Tony with his tazer and stole his arc reactor from Stark's chest.

The Invincible Iron Man
At midnight, Agent Jasper Sitwell and other S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents investigates The underground A.I.M. hideout at the Arctic Nuclear Facility, there it was where A.I.M. set up a trap, some agents managed to get out alive including Jasper. after hearing from Rhody that the A.I.M. Agents also kidnapped Riri Stark suited up in his New Armor called "The Silver Centurion". Stark then confronted Stane in A.I.M's new hideout in a new location where he finds out that A.I.M. has build there own arc reactor and had a long battle with Stane. In the final moments of the battle, with Stark's power supply running low, Tony had shot a detonator out of his armor at the reactor which overload the prototype large-scale arc reactor in the base, causing an explosion that killed him and destroyed the armor while Iron-Man quickly escapes the base with Riri. Now back in control of his Company, Stark hires Riri as his assistant executive engineer and Happy Hogan as a personal Body Guard, and Stark's alter ego was dubbed "Iron-Man" in the morning News. Tony later decided to keep his Iron-Man identity secret, he made it appear as though Tony and Iron Man did not like each other and vowed to work to continue to work against A.I.M.'s forces and protect the innocent.

Armor Wars
Two years later, Tony Stark continued to help ensuring peace in the world while also removing A.I.M. terrorists, including saving a United Nations peacekeeping mission that was under attack. Also helping The Navy SEALs destroy A.I.M.s base of operations. While getting ready for the Gala Charity festival Tony Stark records a journal message about how he will have to defend the Dataspine. He mentions that Vista Corp, and how they tried to duplicate the Iron Man armor without success. Upon arriving at the festival with Happy Hogan being his driver, He was attacked by Anton Vanko (Whiplash) who blames Stark for attacking his hometown back in the Cold War. Anton had a chest harness that fed the energy from the reactor into two electrical whips he could then use to cut through metal and electrify things with. He attacked Tony and Happy while Happy was driving. Tony was able to put on his Iron Man armor that was stored inside his vehicle at the time. While battling him, Stark asked him who sent him but Vanko only replied with "God". Upon almost killing Stark from electrocuting his armor, Happy Hogan defeated Vanko with a striking uppercut and was sent to prison.

A couple days later in his tower in Time Square Ny, Riri informed Tony about Stark Archives being attacked. Tony Stark suited back up in his new MK4 armor but before he went there, Rhodey asked if he could help out in the situation but Tony quickly denies the offer, saying he works best alone and flew there. Upon his arrival, he found it under attack by Vista Corp. He was then struck by an EMP bomb, which disabled him. He briefly lost consciousness and upon regaining it he activated his armor's power reserves. He grimly decides that he should destroy the Dataspine (An archived version of J.A.R.V.I.S.) to keep Vista Corp from getting the archives. Outside, Rhodey arrives in Stark's War Machine armor and intercepts some Vista Corp Dropships. Iron Man makes contact with S.H.I.E.L.D. director Nick Fury, who informs him that separatists under the command of a Russian General Shatalov (Who is also the head of Vista Corp) have seized control of a Tesla facility.

During Iron Man's escorting of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s helicopter forces, Fury informs Iron Man that Shatalov is working with the terrorist group Advanced Idea Mechanics to create the Crimson Dynamo suit for him. Upon learning that the suit is being developed at a power plant in Siberia, Fury mentions that he sent Natasha Romanoff, the Black Widow, to spy on the plant. Iron Man finds and protects Natasha from Shatalov's armored men. A S.H.I.E.L.D. transport is sent to their location, and Natasha is extracted while Iron Man and War Machine battle Shatalov in his Crimson Dynamo armor and Vanko (who broke out of jail with the help of Shatalov himself) who this time was in a crafted armor. The four got into a heated battle until Iron Man kills off Vanko but leaving Shatalov alive for answers. The defeated Shatalov reveals that A.I.M. was behind the theft of J.A.R.V.I.S.' AI and planned to use it to create their ultimate weapon, Ultimo.

The team learns that Kearson DeWitt was behind the attack led by Shatalov and that he worked at Stark's Theoretical Weapons Division until Stark shut it down. Aside from DeWitt working on the prototype to the Arc Reactor, Pepper Potts also reveals that he had a secret project called P.R.O.T.E.A.N.(intelligent machines that could regenerate or modify whatever they were built for). Inside an A.I.M. base, Kearson uses his PROTEAN technology to merge with an enormous metal suit and become Ultimo. With the merge complete, DeWitt has his men upgraded with P.R.O.T.E.A.N. implants. Arriving at the base, War Machine battles P.R.O.T.E.A.N. soldiers while Iron Man searches for DeWitt. J.A.R.V.I.S. detects Ultimo shortly after the base is secured with help from S.H.I.E.L.D. When the giant Ultimo arrives, War Machine disables some of its arc reactors while Iron Man fights the DeWitt/Ultimo within. Upon defeating the DeWitt/Ultimo, Iron Man learns that the effects on DeWitt are irreversible.

War Machine finishes Ultimo off while the Helicarrier rams into it. After this, Rhodes departed with the war machine armor without serious objection from Stark. A day later upon Stark returning to his office at the tower, he spotted Fury sitting in his chair and informed him that the parts had shipped that morning but Tony knew why Fury was really there for. After helping S.H.I.E.L.D. take down Shatalov and Dewitt, he wanted to know where Iron Man is. Tony kept up his charade and claimed he's taking a couple days off after a hard days work yesterday and dosent know where he's is at the moment. Before Fury could ask about War Machine, Jarvis interrupted and told Tony that his helicopter was ready to talk him to his meeting with the governor. Tony went up to the roof followed by Fury. Fury then reiterated that it was a matter of national security but he ignored. He then got into his copter and flew off while Fury gets informed another Superhuman activity and leaves.

The Avenger's Offer
A year later, While patrolling the streets of new york, Tony detected radio transmissions from S.H.I.E.L.D. agents and realized they were watching him. Iron Man flew through the city while being pursued by S.H.I.E.L.D. aircraft, led by Fury. Iron Man detected that the aircraft were firing on him and dodged it. However, an aircraft appeared in front of him and saw a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent shoot an arrow at him. He was surprised when he detected a man that was shrunken to the size of an Ant riding along the flying arrow. The Ant Man then grew in normal size and knocked Iron Man out of the sky. On the ground he was quickly surrounded by S.H.I.E.L.D. soldiers. Fury had landed and walked up to Iron Man. Iron Man pointed his arm mounted weapon at him giving him ten seconds to explain. Fury told the armored hero that the planet was in danger and he was putting a team a select group of Super Powered individuals from around the world to counter a global threat. He wanted Iron Man on the team. But ultimately Iron Man withdrew from seeking his personal involvement stating that he works better alone. He then emitted a pulse that disabled all the S.H.I.E.L.D. weapons. He then teased Ant Man about his outfit then left. Later, back in his tower in New York, Tony talked with Riri Williams about what happened that day, he was then convinced by Riri to join Fury's team.

The Initiative
Tony went with Riri's wishes. He then suited up as Iron-Man and went to S.H.I.E.L.D. Headquarters to check out what was going on. He found Betty Ross, scientist Bruce Banner, Hank Pym (Ant-Man), Janet Van Dayne (The Wasp), Natasha Romanoff, Agent Coulson, Dr. Jane Foster and the reborn Captain America were in a conference room listening to Fury explain about Project: Avenger. The team would be under the command of Captain America. Fury explained to them how a secret Hydra fortress off the coast of Norway was built to launch a Gem powered warhead in World War II. Fury showed them pictures that Rebel Ralston had taken. He told the group about how Cap had stopped the missile from reaching America.

Betty asked how the Hydra got the infinity Gem's capabilities. Fury told them it was because of shape shifting aliens called the Skrulls. The Skrulls had been hiding out on Earth since World War II. Three ships have been hovering around nuclear power plants and military facilities. Fury went on to explain that the skrulls failed to reclaim all the wreckage from the ship that was destroyed along with the early gem powered missile. Fury showed them a piece of the hull, metal they call vibranium. The metal is indestructible and absorbs energy like a sponge. Fury warned that stopping this threat may not be easy but Iron Man and the rest of the group decided to continue.

First Mission
While at the meeting, a Skrull soldier infiltrated the SHIELD's Pegasus building where they kept additional satellites ready to launch and another Infinity Gem known as The Power Gem. Iron Man left the meeting while the rest of the team got into their outfits and were taken by a S.H.I.E.L.D. transport to the base. Iron Man found the base on his own and met the group there. Cap explained about the base's automated defenses. However, Wasp didn't think she would set off the defenses and went on ahead. Cap told Iron Man to scan the base from, while Ant-Man shrinks in size to disable the defenses syetems. Iron Man flew overhead while Wasp, Natahsha and Cap entered the facility. Wasp is surrounded by infrared triggers causing it to explode. While scanning Iron Man finds the Skrull soldier standing over Wasp's body, Cap ordered him to stay put as he was still needed above the base but Iron Man ignored his order as he dove down and crashed through the ceiling. He destroyed a turret with his repulsor beam.

He fired a couple of rockets at a door so he could crash through the remains. He entred the hall as he came in contact with the skull soldier but he did not notice a turret behind him. The turret blasted him into one trigger which bounced him into another trigger. This knocked Tony unconscious and powered down the Iron Man suit. The Skrull, having succeeded in its mission, left the facility and activated bombs destroying most of it. Iron Man is wounded and begins to suffocate under his mask. Captain America removes it to reveal his true identity. The Skrull managed to escape with the Gem and hacked into shields database and satlites and the infinity gem which causes the team to fail the mission. The four got up and left the burning facility.

Tony completely took off his helmet as he walked out. Back at the triskellion, Fury arrived and, upon seeing Tony, He yelled at the entire team for failing to stop the aliens, resulting in Wasp's capture. He points out that because they disobeyed orders the alien got away. Rogers then blames himself for his failures of not leading the team correctly but Tony claims that the team and Stark himself faild him. The team then settle their differences and decided to work as a team. Later, Nick gets his team together again, and they head for Micronesia, a place rumored to be the alien's base and where they helding Janet prisoner. The team and S.H.I.E.L.D. forces heads to Micronesia via helicarriers. In Micronesia Captain America immediately notice something is wrong and calls out Iron Man. In the facility a group of S.H.I.E.L.D. soldiers find a nuclear bomb and it is immediately detonates engulfing the entire island and destroying the helicarrier fleet.

Battle for Earth
Bruce Banner used an experimental formula in an attempt to control the Hulk. At the same time, The Skrulls entered Earth's atmosphere and started attacking New York at a high scale. A bolt of lightning comes out of nowhere at Manhattan, killing some Skrulls. Korvac (Their leader) goes to get ready (freeing Wasp in the process), as the team, and hundreds of SHIELD soldiers appear from the smoke. It is revealed that a mysterious god who call himself Thor arrived at the nick of time to help as when Iron Man's force field helped saved many of the soldiers and team from the nuclear blast, allowing Thor to transport everyone all the way back to New York with his hammer, Mjolnir. With Cap in charge, the team moved on the attack. Cap tells Iron Man and Thor to go into the sky, providing air support and take out any flying skrulls. Iron Man grabbed one of the alien soldiers and flew around with it. He let go of the soldier so that Giant Man could hit it like a baseball into one of the ships. Iron Man flew to the hole the soldier created. He fired into the hole causing the ship to crash and explode. Iron Man and Giant man took down a second ship and are causing chaos destroying every alien aircraft they can see. Stark and the team reformed and came into confrontation with two individuals. The two are leading the Skrull invasion whose names are Korvac and the other was Nebula, their captain. With the combined efforts of Iron Man, Captain America, Giant-Man, Wasp, Thor, and even Hulk, the superheroes finally managed to subdue the villains, stopping the invasion.

In the aftermath as the team was going to put Korvac and Nebula in S.H.I.E.L.D's holding facility, Banner lost control of The Hulk and started attacking the team. After another long battle between Hulk and the Team, The Wasp finally manages to blind the Hulk by stinging him in the face while Natahsa hops on Hulk's back and injects him with antidote that Bruce created to slow his heart rate. And with the help of Betty Ross to calm him down, The Hulk revert back into Bruce Banner, rendering unconscious. The next day, Korvac and Nebula was held in S.H.I.E.L.D holding facility while Banner was held in a special cell and had to take medication frequently and The Power Gem is now kept safe in Asgard thanks to Thor. The team later met back at the Triskelion and Tony Stark threw a party to celibate the day they saved Earth. And on that day, Tony and the other members of the team officially declared themselves "The Avengers".

Personality
Tony Stark is, for the lack of a better word, complicated. Tony is seen by others as being an arrogant jerk. He appears to be more interested in making money and dating beautiful women than with helping people. This often earns him the ire of those who do not know or have limited dealings with him. This all changed after his capture (and subsequent escape) by A.I.M., he realized what his weapons had done and turned a new leaf, stopping all weapon productions and using whatever weapons remained to become Iron Man. Plagued by many vices, Stark is prone to womanizing, pride and most surprisingly, alcoholism. Tony puts a lot of time and care into each suit of armor he builds. An inventive mechanical engineering prodigy, Stark is constantly creating new technology and looking for ways to improve it, but has shown that he has little concern for the effect his weapons have on others. Being a superhero requires some level of selfless heroism. He is not afraid to risk himself to save others when the time is necessary. He does not always take all the credit and tries to give it to other rescue workers, even if he did most of the work.

Despite his apparent selflessness, he is quite arrogant as both Tony and Iron Man. As Tony he will often belittle business partners that he does not like, such as Nick Fury, and claim more recognition than he deserves. Though in truth he does deserve a lot of recognition. He is also a loner. As Iron Man he often feels he is the best person for any job. That is why he initially passed on the offer to join the Avengers and denied Rhodey's help to apprehend the attackers at Stark Archives. At times he underestimates his opponent, believing that his armor can defeat anything. He will ignore orders from his superiors if he feels he can accomplish something. However, he fails to realize that orders are made for a reason, which caused him extensive damage. This causes Tony to act like a lone wolf, often ignoring the help of others. Eventually after fighting alongside with The Avengers, he realized his limitations and readily worked with other people again.
