Tony Stark was the arrogant son of wealthy, weapon manufacturer Howard Stark. Tony cared only about himself, but he would have a change of heart after he was kidnapped by terrorists and gravely injured. Pressured to create a weapon of mass destruction, Stark instead created a suit of armor powerful enough for him to escape. Tony used his vast resources and intellect to make the world a better place as The Invincible Iron Man. Stark's super hero identity led him to become a founding member of the Avengers.
Ugh I really need to get around to the Micheline and Director of Shield stuff. Still working my way through Fraction's stuff.
I am surprised that you put World's Most Wanted at number 2 though. I know many enjoy that story, but I'm not a huge fan. I heard that some of the plot elements in that story pay off later in the run, but by itself, it gets a little draggy.
My favorite is probably a tie between Extremis and Five Nightmares, the latter of which I really enjoyed.
