Iron Man has a raging addiction to something worse than booze
One of Stan Lee's greatest qualities when creating his main characters was adding mundane and common problems across the planet to their personalities. No kryptonite; Here the problem with the brilliant Tony Stark is his addiction to the fat sip of booze. Although he has overcome this issue to the point of being more in control, there is one addiction that he will never be able to give up — and it is something much more dangerous than being a drunk.
Stark's dependence on alcoholic beverages is famous for the work done on the Demon in a Bottle plot by David Michelinie, Bob Layton and John Romita Jr. It is still one of the best Iron Man stories of all time. However, Marvel has made a point of reminding readers in recent years that Iron Man's first addiction wasn't alcohol.
But the Golden Gladiator has an original vice that is not so talked about, however, visible in all phases of the hero — including in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). And now, this problem has been remembered by the plot of The Avengers #19, recently released.
The story brings the first consequences of Doctor Strange having ceded the post of Sorcerer Supreme of Earth to Doctor Doom, in exchange for the villain's help in the Avengers' failed campaign against the supervampire invasion in Blood Hunt. Victor von Doom questions the group's “heroism”, since, in his view, the team fails to unite the world in solving basic problems.
To illustrate what he thinks, Destino creates a hypothetical reality of a “perfect” world, without wars. In this way, he preaches that the Avengers and Iron Man would not need to use weapons in their daily lives.
Iron Man is addicted to war
By highlighting each member's place in their world, Doom proposes that Iron Man become "gun-free at last," which could repair "both his and the world's addiction to war."
To better understand what Destiny says, it is necessary to remember Iron Man's vices. After recovering from alcohol addiction, Stark rarely relapsed, as he did recently — after all, this is a lifelong battle. The same cannot be said about his fascination with wars.
It is worth remembering that all of his training, from childhood to early adulthood, has to do with conflict analysis, destruction tactics and offensive strategies to dominate enemies with the latest technology weapons and vehicles.
Even though Stark changed the business focus of his companies over the years, he never stopped creating more weapons and ways to neutralize enemies. War is his natural habitat, and this is an addiction he will never be able to overcome.
