 Thanks to the movies, Iron Man has become one of biggest stars in the Marvel universe. Before all of that, Tony Stark already had some of the best storylines in comic books.

Believe it or not, there was a time when Iron Man was not Marvel’s most popular character. Before all the Marvel Studios films, Tony Stark was just another superhero out there among all the rest. That all changed with the release of the first Iron Man film and now he might be the most A-list hero in their line-up.

Back when Iron Man had to struggle for attention, writers were forced to challenge themselves to come up with new ways to strike at Tony and new ways to make this rich guy with a super suit interesting. Once upon a time, he was just a guy in an Iron suit, but now Tony Stark fights with cutting-edge technology and even artificial intelligences of his own creation. He has recreated himself and his suits so many times now that he has a special suit for every situation.

Even with all of this at his disposal, it is Tony Stark’s desire to protect the world and stop evil-doers that make him so likable as a hero. Let’s take a look at some of the best Iron Man stories from the comic books that made him a Marvel legend on the big screen. Now this is just a top ten list, you might have your own favorites and disagree. Let us know in the comments which stories are your favorites.
