Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

He immediately got fired and sued. Have you watched the movie?
No he doesn't? He gets sidelined for a while, which he doesn't fight because he's dostracted. Never gets sued. The second movie starts with a hearing where the gov is trying to acquire his new weapons, but it's not a lawsuit and has nothing to do with the company.
So, tell me how he gets sidelined.
Because he's busy building Iron Man armors and locked on his basement/garage and not doing anything CEO related?
At one point I believe the dude tells him that the board has locked him out. So it's not quite as happenstance as you're suggesting.
Are we forgetting Stane was orchestrating the whole thing? Like, the entire movie is him just scheming to take over Stark Industries because he wants to continue selling weapons. I wouldn't put it past him to essentially strongarm or manipulate the other stockholders into locking Stark out, especially given that the entire movie sets him up as someone who can and WILL use violence to get what he wants.
I wouldn't even be surprised if he essentially threatened the other shareholders into locking Tony out, perhaps not directly though.
I don't know how you think I'm forgetting him when I literally brought him up.
