Tony Stark moonlighted as the armoured hero Iron Man for years. He had destroyed a lot of the weapons he had sold and taken down a few sects of the Ten Rings terrorist organisation. Tony met James Rhodes a pilot for the military. The government pressured Tony into revealing if he had anything to do with the creation of Iron Man but Tony denied it preferring to keep his identity a secret. Ivan Vanko the son of a man Tony had ripped off used his father’s old tech to become a villain Whiplash. He targeted Tony’s company and loved one’s hoping to draw out Iron Man and convert him to his side. Tony became angry at Whiplash and eventually decided to travel to Russia to kill him. Tony found out that Obadiah Stane leaked the Iron Man designs and he had to put aside his differences with Ivan to stop him.
