Notice that I tied for GL and Iron Man. Picture Tony Stark with a Lantern ring.

Yeah, and I'd be more Kyle Rainer before he went all nutty.

Oh and Tony Stark with a ring...

That's a What If waiting to happen.

It's been done (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_Lantern).

Of course, that was before Bendis and Quesada performed character assassination on Stark.... :-(

Technically, it was Mark Millar, but who's counting? (To an extent it's JMS, too, as most of Tony Stark's war profiteering happened in Amazing Spider-man)

Some would argue that Hal had some character assassination, too.

Tony Stark is recovering alcoholic. He's always been controlling, difficult, and, while forward-thinking and optimistic, not someone you like to cross. Like most alcoholics. Something I unfortunately relate too.

And I really don't see what was so wrong with what Tony Stark was doing.

Tony's motives may be noble (although in a universe where the most elite superspy agency in the world routinely gets infiltrated by AIM, Hydra, etc., where "Top Secret: Eyes Only [KEYWORD]" just means "send your grade three agents to steal this, not day-to-day goons", and where the Red-fucking-Skull was in the Cabinet of the PotUS as the flipping SecDef, one can certainly argue the wisdom of collecting any information at all about any Superhero that might possibly be useful to link them back to their secret IDs), but his methods sucked rocks, pretty much from day one.

Pretty much any time you find yourself hiring - by hook, crook, or electrocuting nanochain - Bullseye and the Venom symbiote to do any... well, anything except maybe "volunteer test subject to see whether or not Sentry can throw people into a star other than Sol" - you've pretty much confirmed right then and there that you are no longer on the side of the Angels, and you need to rethink your position.

I mean, it's like a twisted version of "You might be a Redneck" - "If you and your co-conspirators are cloning a cyborg version of a best friend who just happens to be a Thunder God to help you in your schemes... You Might Be A Supervillain." "If your idea of a good Black Ops team includes an alien symbiote who thinks eating people is a good idea - and a sociopath killer who is even meaner and eviller than that... You Might Be a Supervillain." "If your idea of a good place to stuff prisoners is an alternate dimension that's proven to drive people insane... You Might Be a Supervillain." "If your partner needs to turn to the Mad Thinker to check his math... He Might Be A Supervillain." "If your schemes set off every 'I think this might be a bad idea' alarm in the head of your best friend, who just happens to embody everything that is good, decent, noble, and righteous about the American Dream... You're probably a supervillain."

And yeah, Tony isn't (wasn't) a saint. But at his heart, he's a decent human being - even when he was acting as SecDef, and developing new weapons (again) for the US Military, he was working from the angle of high-tech less-than-lethal weapon systems, not bigger-and-better bombs. He's the model of the enlightened capitalist - the guy who runs his company so that his workers don't think they need a union to look after them.

The guy Millar, et al have been writing about for the last year - he's gotta be that alternate universe Stark that Immortus pulled outta somwhere, back from whatever time-space hole he crawled into after Heroes Reborn. Because while Tony, Reed, etc. might decide that Registration (proven to be a Bad Idea - and one that both of them have fought against in the past) is The Only Way This Time - they would sure as hell not implement it as ham-handedly and in as over-the top "Stark Uber Alles" a fashion as the last year or so has shown.
