    Iron Man has a space ship that can cross the galaxy, friends who can do magic and has defeated multiple alien empires. Check.

    Plus he has the know how to wipe his entire brain as if it were a hard drive and reboot it, whilst having enough forethought to leave instructions to his friends on how to do it should he be unable.

    Comics. Gotta love them.

    When you best friends are a genetically enhanced super human and a god, you get some leeway

    Tony Stark is an alcoholic with no friends. And he wets himself...

    Only on Tuesdays that have a very 1970s feel to them. Otherwise hes rocking it with the avengers/super models.

    Plus, hey having no friends never stopped batman being so cool.

    No one is denying (well, almost no one) that Tony Stark is cool. But I remain the only person to have addressed the "crippling injury slowly killing him" aspect of his life. His quality of life, economically, is very high. Personally and physically, it's terrible. Remember, the man has a HOLE. In his HEART. Full of SHRAPNEL.

    Current comic book Tony has no crippling injury that is slowly killing him.

    Re: The burning question of our time.

    I would be Han Solo because he is a real person, not like that Stark fellow.

    Ahem; Solo because he helps destroy weapons of mass destruction whereas Stark makes them. Ha ha ha.

    This is what is wrong with the world, the real question should be 'Indiana Jones or Han Solo'..... I am showing my age a little here....

    Re: The burning question of our time.

    Aye, as far as I know, the slowly killing him part was dropped pretty quickly in comics. Its definatly been a part of him and writers have kept adding random ailments to keep him relient on his suit, but since extramis(sp) hes been able to generate his suit from inside of him as hes now a literal biological machine/man hybrid.

    Again, badass and unashamedly comic booky

    Re: The burning question of our time.

    Well, since his immune system is the Iron Man suit, I'm pretty sure that, if he did have them, he doesn't any more. Tony hasn't drank in a very, very long time (except recently, when he sacrificed his sobriety to Odin. Seriously.) and, since syphilis is curable (hello, antibiotics), there is and never was an issue with that. Also, his drinking being a problem was a short lived thing in the comics (see: a single story arc).

    Hes best mates with two of the worlds foremost DR's in the field of genetics and biology (hank pym and Dr McCoy) not to mention others (reed richards, who can literally invent anything given the time to do it.). If it came down to it im sure he'd be able to call on the help of a few of them to help keep him going if needed.

    Ever get the feeling that Tony Stark is just Solo after he married Leia and then divorced her to take half her money?

    Yeah, but to be fair he was quoting the movie so blame George Lucas for missing out on the "science" part of "Science-Fiction"

    It still makes sense, Kessel is surrounded (and I'm going completely by memory here) by lots of black holes (The Maw?) and as such cutting as close as possible to shave down the distance required during the Kessel run would indeed let Solo boast about doing it in under '12 parsecs'.

    It's like me saying 'I got to Tesco and back and only did 6 miles'.
