Over the course of his decades long career as Iron Man, Tony Stark has stood firm throughout some of the most harrowing and horrifying events the Marvel Universe has ever seen. Of course, few if any have been as bad as the Earthshaking tragedy that was the latest, and presumably last, Hellfire Gala. Apart from thrusting mutantkind to the brink of extinction, Orchis’ assault on Krakoa stands as a perversion of Tony’s own legacy, and those are both crimes worth responding to with lethal force.Invincible Iron Man #9 (by Gerry Duggan, Juan Frigeri, Bryan Valenza, and VC’s Joe Caramagna) opens to a battered Tony Stark staring down the barrel of a towering Sentinel based on his own technology. Fortunately for Tony, his enemies aren’t willing to risk the fallout of publicly executing one of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes. While this allows him to regroup with an in-hiding Emma Frost, it doesn’t make things any better — at least, not directly. Having come face-to-face with the grim truth of where the world is headed under Orchis’ watch, a fire ignites within Tony that matches that of Emma at her most vengeful. Not only is Tony quick to remind Emma she needs to avenge the people she lost, he agrees to join her mission to snuff out Orchis. Their partnership might just be the next step toward a whole new brand of Avengers.While Orchis’ attack on the Hellfire Gala was an outright assault on many of Tony Stark’s closest friends and allies, it also stood as just as direct an assault on his legacy. In the past year, Tony lost control of his corporate and technological empire to Kelvin Heng, better known as the mutant hating, genetically enhanced villain Feilong. In his youth, Feilong’s uncaring parents stole away his professional accomplishments, leaving him with a deep-seated desire to establish himself as an unrivaled success later in life. To that end, Feilong worked to terraform Mars on humanity’s behalf. However, mutantkind to beat him to it when they rechristened the red planet Arakko in their name. Spurned by mutants just as he had been by his parents, Feilong shifted his focus from expanding humanity’s world to eradicating mutantkind’s own.RELATED: Who Are Marvel’s Dark X-Men – And How Long Will They Last?RELATED: Why A Powerful Mutant Never Joined The X-Men
