I love everything about this post. Tony Stark = win.
I'm actually doing a speech this afternoon on how Marvel is better than DC comics, and one of my focal points (besides that Marvel exhibits more positive diversity than DC) is that Marvel's characterizations and conceptions of what it means to be a hero, the morality of a hero, are so much deeper and more complex. Actually, one of my big points is how Tony Stark is more "real" than Bruce Wayne. I hope you don't mind if I snatch a little off your ideas to use in my speech. :)
