What Is Tony Stark Now, Anyway? (Secret Empire #6 And Invincible Iron Man #9 Spoilers)
At the end of Civil War II, Tony Stark ended up in a box. In some kind of coma, placed there by his own technology after a calamitous battle over the skies of Washington DC as Iron Man with Captain Marvel. But, since he is Tony Stark, that wasn't going to be the end of it.
He sent Riri Williams an electronic version of himself to work as an AI for her own Iron Heart armour. But in recent issues of Secret Empire, we have seen that AI be Iron Man in and of its own right, taking over a suit of armour, appearing as a hologram within it. But in both today's Invincible Iron Man #9 by Brian Bendis, Stefano Caselli and Marte Graci we get a better explanation of what he is, courtesy of Tony Stark's own AI, Friday.
And in Secret Wars #8 by Nick Spencer and Leinil Yu, another definition…
To be is to be perceived… I think therefore I am… are we human or are we dancer? What is Tony Stark anyway?
