You know how it is. You wait a hundred realms to get the superhero movie you always dreamed of, and then it finally arrives when you least expect it. That movie brings out a superhero that you love, the hero you will rout with for the rest of your days. Through the spiders, bats and iron, all undeniably great characters with great films already behind them (when the creative team gets there heads together), I still never really felt that I was a converted fan of the hero himself. For every Spiderman there was a Doc. Oc... For every Batman there was a Joker... For every Iron Man there was a Obadiah Stane... okay, so the last one isn't true but still I'm completely sold on Tony Stark.
