“How many? How many have drawn blood with my sword?” Millionaire industrialist Tony Stark is an inventive genius who has dedicated all of his enormous financial and intellectual resources to a single guiding principle: the creation of technology for the betterment of humanity. Stark’s greatest creation is a modern-day miracle: a suit of form-fitting, strength-enhancing, steel-mesh armor he dons to become the living symbol of his ideals, the Invincible Iron Man! But when Stark discovers that the same technology he used to create the Iron Man armor – technology so secret he didn’t even dare patent it – is now in the hands of several deadly super-villains, he feels responsible for the evil they have done with the high-tech tools he unwittingly provided. In the face of objections from his government, friends, colleagues and fellow super heroes, Stark swears to use the power of Iron Man to bring the evil to an end – and to take back what’s his. The Beatle, Stilt Man, the Controller, Stingray, the Mandroids, the Guardsmen and Firepower don’t know it yet, but they’ve got a problem. The world’s most powerful force for good isn’t playing by the rules anymore. And he’s coming for them.

I love Iron Man, but I feel like, storytelling-wise, the character has never moved beyond this. Nearly every IM story is about someone stealing his technology.
Sounds like you need to read more Iron Man, ’cause it’s about a lot more than that.
I’ve been reading steadily for over ten years, and off and on for over a decade before that. Sure, there’s more, and that’s what keeps me reading, but most of the plots are either tech gone wrong or tech stolen.
