@SwordandShields: Alex just answered all your questions pretty accurately. People don't respect the Iron Man as much as they should.

@alex1678: Yep

For your first question...well it is a matter of perspective and moment in his continuity you are looking at. There were his medical problems and there is his trending to overcome them. Sure his heart problems and neural condition reduced his physical streight but hey sure empowered his will to overcome them. Plus, overcoming a disease such as alcoolism is certainly not the achievment of a weak man.

Your second question. His various armors has helped him to grand a position amongst Earth's most powerful people. He managed to give Thor and Hulk some pretty messy days and he even managed to defeated a fully beserk Hulk (with extreme difficulty but nevertheless he managed to bring him down).

Your third query: Again it is a matter of which time period your are looking at. For example, Civil War has putted Iron Man into many peoples black list. Generally speaking though he enjoys the respect and friendship of many Marvel icons including Captain America.

1 - No he is not weak

2 - He is a top tier in term of power for non gods/cosmics

3 - He is a near team killer with the right matchup, his abilities are so varied and he has no set weakness for a OHK (one hit kill)
