Plot Summary
Billionaire weapons manufacturer and socialite Anthony Edward 'Tony' Stark takes a business trip to Vietnam in order to assist the war effort by unveiling new technologies to the U.S. Forces. Unfortunately, an explosion leaves Stark fatally injured and in the hands of the tyrant Wong-Chu, who forces Tony to spend his last days building weapons for his enemy.
While in captivity the dying Tony meets famed Chinese Dr. Ho Yinsen, and the two begin working on an iron suit that will not only extend Tony's life, but also perform amazing feats of power. Thus, Tony is reborn as the Iron Man, the near-invincible hero with one key weakness -- his failing heart.
