"King of Kings says:"He illegally cloned a friend, and a teammate. Wich resulted in the death of a HERO. He **Secretly** formed a group of SUPERVILLAINS Hello! Did Jack Flag really deserve to be parallelized for life, an then beating while in custody? Is Tony that dumb to think he can have Venom, Bullseye AND the Green %$#@ing Goblin capturing HEROES, are you people daft? And we don't even need to get into how he was a douchbag before Civil War ever started. No he didn't pull the trigger, he killed Cap long before that bullet ever did. "
1.Tony didn't clone Thor..Hank Pym and Reed Richards did.Goliath is a hero but Marvel needed a way to get rid of a pointless character.
2.Tony isn't dumb by letting the Thunderbolts exist.Again MARVEL using Tony to get rid of characters that are either virtual clones of another character like Jack Flag is of Cap by making him make poor decisions.Although the Thunderbolts are villians,Tony keeps them arond because he knows they will apprehend people by any means nessassary and don't mind breaking rules to get the job done.Jack Flag deserves to be paralyzed,he's not pro registration nor is he good enough of a hero to take CAP's place, therefore they either have to kill him or put him out of commision so they don't have to waste any more pages on his whereabouts.
3.Captain America's death really has nothing to do with Tony,what it did was set up in epic battle between two great heroes and put an end to a superhero that was getting old and didn't have much more he could do in his storyline.
4.Read between the lines,why would Marvel clearly favor a character who continuously makes bad judgements and essentially became a bad guy in a sense.He's not a douche he's a tool to make characters and storylines better."
See, your looking at it as a business move for Marvel, no ones arguing that the story wasn't amazing. But clearly Marvel made Tony the villain in this series. He's always been a douchbag, its who his character is. from being an alcoholic to sleeping with his friends wife, Tony Stark is a douch.
Like I said, Tony was a douchbag before Civil War. You just said the Thunderbolts will do WHATEVER it takes to get the job done, including breaking the rules, correct? So its okay to break the law, as long as its for what Tony deems important, your making my case for me. In capturing Jack Flag they destroyed public property and could have killed somebody, thats EXACTLY what the Reg side was supposed to be against. If what they were doing was so just, then why did they lie an say Jack planted bombs, why not tell the truth? Cause the %$#@ing villains thats why.
The idea of policing heroes was sound, but the plan and the execution was flawed. Hank and Reed may have done the actual deed, but who gave them the DNA? Who got the DNA in the first place? Who told them what to do with said DNA? Don't try and play it off like it wasn't Tony.
Not much more in his story line? Old? What have you been reading?
