A Hero's Journey

My favorite hero would have to be Iron Man (aka Tony Stark). I love that in the beginning he starts off as a genius who uses these smarts for what most people would consider bad things. (Making weapons is not on everybody's to-do list.) Also he is a drunk and doesn't really spend his time all that well. However once he was forced to do somebody's will, while almost dying in the process, he fought back and grew into a better man. He started off low and flew to the top (literally!). From there on he did what was finally considered right- by peoples standards and not really the government's. He stopped making weapons, for others that is, and fought for the safety of everyone in the world.
