Issue Summary: Honestly very little happens in this issue. Firstly, we see a flashback of Tony Stark remembering his past, where he recalls being injured in Vietnam, he also recalls falling into Wong-Chu’s clutches, and building his first armor with Ho Yinsen’s help. He also recalls his adventures with the Avengers, his heart being cured and his meeting with Nick Fury.The scene shifts back to Namor, where we see him returning back to the ocean while Iron Man heads back to USA. Bethany Cabe watches him depart, still curious about him. As Iron Man returns home he muses over his origin and changes he has undergone since. Elsewhere, Justin Hammer meets his lackey Philip Barnett and they prepare for a third test to control Iron Man’s armour.
