cap_ironman | Question to the comm: the five key moments of Tony Stark

Hail fellow slashers of the iron and shield. I'm girding myself to do a Tony Stark centric fic, and I need to know what do you think are the five key moments of Tony Stark in marvel canon?

For instance, I have:

1. Death of Tony's parents (and him subsequently inheriting Stark Industries)

2. Tony's alcoholism: nuff said.

3. The Crossing; where Tony is mind controlled by Kang the Conqueror (apologies if I get this mixed up, I'm going off memory here) and he becomes a traitor in the Avengers' ranks. It's important because in Avengers Disassembled no one believed him that he was being mind controlled (although it had happened to him a decade before)

4. The death of Rumiko: she was around for 85 issues, and Tony tried to have a relationship with her in a way that he didn't with Cabe or that woman who shot him.

5. Civil War.

These are the ones that I can name off the top of my head, but I might be wrong, and might have overlooked some other key issues, like when Stark faked his own death, or was unable to walk for a time, or when he fell out with Captain America during The Crossing.

So, help?

Tony got proper ruthless, like when he stopped someone's heart, and Steve is like, "Did you do that just because it was interesting Tony?"

In Extremis execute you actually saw how it changed Stark, and that's what made him open to the idea of the SHRA.

Tony was like, "I brought him BACK TO LIFE STEVE GEEZ"

XD

and Tony was like, "Fantastic!" and people are like "Bzwuh?" and he's like, "I won a Roman statue at an auction."

Oh, Tony...

But people seem to forget that Tony stopped his heart to save Steve when he was in the crux of the execute programme.

Ohhh multitasking via Extremis. So so awesome.
