Tony Stark, a rich billionaire, engineer and business magnate gets captured by the Afghani Ten Rings. 3 months in the cave changed Tony's entire perspective. He builds a suit, freeing himself out. When he returns, he is slightly more serious and down to Earth while closing all his weapons. He is at odds with his father's past business partner, Anton Vanko. I think replacing Obadiah with Anton gives the character more nuance and a rich history to dive into, with Black Widow. Not just a copy variation of the hero but we can go deeper by making him the worst version of Tony's own character. Their lives and journeys truly shape their character.
