Fictional character biographies

Tony Stark

Tony Stark - A billionaire scientist and playboy, Stark created the first Iron Man armor when injured after being taken captive by terrorists, using it to escape. In the years that followed, he created dozens more armors, and was the user of the Iron Man identity for most of that time.

Weasel Wills

Weasel Wills - A two-bit thief who broke into Stark Industries, Wills stole the MK III Iron Man armor and used it and the identity to criminally benefit himself. Within a short amount of time, he was defeated by Tony Stark, who was wearing the MK II Iron Man armor.[1]

Happy Hogan

Happy Hogan - Tony Stark's chauffeur/bodyguard, Hogan first donned the armor of Iron Man when Stark was hospitalized (and to make people think Stark and Iron Man weren't one and the same). He has become Iron Man various times since.[2]

Tony Stark LMD

A Tony Stark LMD once went rogue and took the Iron Man role, pretending to be the real one.[3] It was in turn defeated by the real Stark wearing the MK II armor[4]

Eddie March

Eddie March - March, a retired boxer, assumed the role of Iron Man when Tony Stark no longer wanted it. A blood clot in his brain brought his brief stint to an end, but he survived the ordeal and remained friends with Stark.[5]

James Rhodes

James Rhodes - A longtime friend and associate of Tony Stark, Rhodes became Iron Man when Stark fell back into alcoholism as a result of the machinations of Obadiah Stane.[6] He took on the role again a few more times before becoming War Machine, a hero on his own right.

Teen Tony Stark

When Tony Stark was taken control of by Kang the Conqueror, the Avengers recruited a teenage version of Stark.[7]
