*** Well the part I found strange was treating the hiring of Ghost like something they could get away with perfectly scot-free, legally. But it's been resolved as of 'Heavy Mettle' I guess, kinda.

**** Having them is perfectly legal. How they got them was not. He couldn't legally prove the hiring of Ghost, the most he could prove is that they have them.

* What's with the whole "weapons are evil and wrong" thing? I mean, it's obviously a case of [[Writer On Board]], but I mean, c'mon, this is ''way'' past the [[Doesn't Like Guns|Guns are Evil]] attitude. The Iron Man suits ''are'' weapons, the police use ''weapons'', and almost ''anything'' could be ''used'' as a "weapon" (like, say, [[Daredevil|Bullseye]] could pick up a spoon...). Anyhow, it seems pretty hypocritical of Tony, who specifically made ''weapon'' to use against Stane, who he was calling out for weaponizing the Earthmovers. And by the way, what kind of government who could afford the thing ''wouldn't'' jump at the opportunity to purchase huge, giant, walking towers that shoot lasers at people? What's more, Rhodey's dad is stated to be in the military; you'd think he'd be the type to call address this issue with Tony.

** Aside from the fact that this is a major aspect of Tony's character no matter what media he's in, it's not weapons in general that Tony has a problem with. What Tony has a problem with is the sale and proliferation of weapons as an end to itself. Stane and Hammer are treated as evil because they are arms suppliers; specifically, corrupt and double-dealing ones.

* How come the Ghost didn't kill Tony in his first appearance? Yeah, Tony did give him a lot of money not to, but he could've killed him afterwards and collect even more money from his employer. It's not like he's stopped by some code of honour.
