Tony Stark, You Son Of A B*tch, I'm In – Can You Read Iron Man 2020 and Not Think of Rick & Morty? (Spoilers)

The recent Rick & Morty episode destroyed every heist movie plot ever, past, present and future. So when reading today's Iron Man 2020 with the now-revealed-artificial intelligence Tony Stark, Mark One leading off with…

Pennyworth

…the heist of the century, of course, we all have to say, Mark One, You Son of A Bitch, I'm In. So you have the big splashy attack on Arno Stark…

Pennyworth

…that is, of course, a diversion for the real plan…

Pennyworth

…with a switcheroo revealed to be all part of Arno Stark's plan the whole time.

Pennyworth

…and then throw in a double cross.

Pennyworth

… we are left waiting for issue 3 to reveal that Arno's plan was part of Mark One's plan all along. But Mark One's plan was part of Arno Stark's plan all along. Which was part of, oh no, I've gone cross-eyed. Double cross-eyed. Better put my sunglasses on and suck my lollipop. All left to be revealed is whether Arno or Mark is Heist-O-Tron.
