Introductions
Time for introductions!
So who are you? Why do you like Iron Man? Do you have other social media we should be friends on?
As for me my name is Jane. I've been an Iron Man fan for over 20 years and to me the character has always been a great example of what a superhero would be like if they existed in our world. You can find me mostly on Tumblr as whatjanesays, where I post about Marvel, Star Trek, Star Wars, Disney, and occasionally go on Math or Science rants.




Hiiii. I'm Lia and I've been an on and off Marvel fan my whole life. Iron Man was always kinda just there as one of the leaders of the Avengers, but growing up I was much more into X-Men. MCU!Tony really got me back into reading Iron Man arcs and even now I go back and forth on comics!Tony but he's still one of my top faves for solo arcs/series to read. I'm most places under this name, although most of my tumblr is MCU-leaning since I'm not actively reading comics (I've got them on comixology! It's just finding the TIME to catch up T_T) or AVAC (which.... sigh that's another story).
Hi! I'm Dorey, and I've been a fan of Tony since I saw the Avengers (and the first Iron Man film very quickly afterwards). I then moved on to his comics appearences, and have really enjoyed a lot of them since. I like him because I've always liked the more sarcastic types, and love the depth that backs up that sarcasm.
I'm DoreyG on LJ.
I saw the first Iron Man film rather late (some time in 2012), and was meh at first. I think I literally said "I don't like this character" when they introduced him with gambling and shallow partying. And then the movie happened. and afterwards I said "I LOVE THIS CHARACTER". I watched the other movies, and then started reading comics, although I thought I disliked 616 Tony at first, because I started with Fraction's and Gillen's runs, that... weren't that much fun to me. Since then i've read a lot of comics (still not enough), and fell in love with 616 Tony after v4 and now I'm reading v3 and loving every second of it :D SO, hi, I'm Wren, I like Tony Stark. :D I love that he has this depth of hiding his good qualities, that he cares so much, feels guilty a lot, solves problems by working on a smart solution...
I've gotten into Marvel more seriously since Civil War, but have been an on-off IM fan for years. I'm under this name on Tumblr and Ao3. I have a Tony-centric series there but it's... pretty weird.
Hi, I'm Laura. I'm one of those people who discovered Iron Man through the movie because no one else in my family likes comics, but the first thing I ever read was Demon ina Bottle, which sold me forever. Chasing that with Matt Fraction's run on Invincible Iron Man really set me up as a lifelong fan!!
My favorite thing about Iron Man has to be Tony (I'm hyped about Riri, though). I think he encompasses a lot of subversions of the trope of a playboy and what I expected of superheros growing up: He's rich, yes, but he's also vulnerable, has vices, and lives in this complicated limbo between being a futurist, always looking for what is possible, and being tied down to his past and recognizing how you can't just walk away from what has already been, either.
