Descriere: THE ORIGINAL HEAVY METAL HERO
Millionaire industrialist Tony Stark's genius for designing and building high-tech, ultradestructive weapons for America's armed forces has inspired critics to dub him the modern-day Leonardo da Vinci-as well as "merchant of death," a moniker he embraces with cool arrogance.
