***** whipped? You mean he stopped obsessing over making suits, and decided to go half and half, giving attention to Pepper AND the suits?
Also, what's everyone's big deal about a lack of AC/DC? I mean, seriously?
Er no... I mean he was about to get himself ended, after repeatedly being shown up by fireburny man... Only to have his missus save him
There was no "I am just as capable without my suit obsession" learning curve
Just him being useless (let his girl die, got handed his ass) without his suit(s)
Even iron patriot did nothing of any good in his suit...
What they should have done is have him need to back into his suit archive and go version 2 being the only one left or something... And have battle it out without "ALL" his new toys
Please bear in mind... My opinion.. Have way to much to do other than argue with captain arguement
