Secret Wars Request Thread: Iron Man 2020

[El1jahSnowFan]

Hi, all!

So, I'll just be honest: I don't read a ton of comics anymore, but one guy who I move heaven and earth to read is Jonathan Hickman, and so, yeah. I'm pretty transparent. I'm like a little kid waiting for Christmas morning, waiting for Secret Wars to come out next year.

I say this because I know it's true: There aren't a ton of creators left anymore, and I realize that starting a lengthy request thread might make me look/sound a little silly. But what I'm hoping is to maybe get a few characters who might not otherwise get done created for the game, in advance of the series. There are going to be a ton of characters -- many of which are already out there -- and I won't be dense and ask for every character just because I see one from my youth who hasn't been done.

But I am hopeful that maybe, if I generate some interest from some creators, the community might get to see a couple of these guys done and we can simulate our own Secret Wars battles -- I mean, I can't be the only one who, um, er....simulates comic battles in the Danger Room? Right? I'm not the only one who does this, right?!?!?! 

But first up, I'm requesting that a character created way back in 1984 celebrate his 30th anniversary by being put in the game! Ladies and gentlemen (well, mostly gentlemen, I'm thinking), I present to you...

IRON MAN 2020!:  http://marvel.wikia.com/Category:Arno_Stark_%28Earth-8410%29/Images?file=Arno_Stark_%28Earth-8410%29.jpg

Long before Tony Stark was turned Superior, readers were introduced to Arno Stark, who was pretty much a big old a-hole who bought out relative Tony Stark's company and therefore got Iron Man technology. The guy was always a d-bag, and a mercenary with questionable ethics and morals. Wouldn't it be nice to see an Iron Man taking on good guys and bad guys, with no regard to their safety and it not be Tony Stark?

Thanks, as always, to anyone who might want to respond. I'll try to post a one each week, for, maybe...let's keep the number realistic. I'll post...9 more requests, for a total of 10, one each week. That way, I (hopefully) won't wear out my welcome.

I could have sworn I've seen Arno Stark floating around  Maybe try trawling through the skoping thread?

Also, Arno is great ... the first appearance I read him in was that Acts of Vengeance story with Iron Man and Dr Doom travelling to the future.

Thanks for the heads-up -- I'll give it a look!
