The Invincibleย Iron Man (2008) Issue #1 - #7ย 


'The Five Nightmares'



[ Of course, Ezekiel 'Zeke' Stane plays a huge role in this storyline and somehow, in strings with Eleanor. any wild guesses? taking into account his father is Obadiah Stane was one of Tony's enemies, we have a fair story arc between Tony and his son Zeke. some and only some, pics and words are taken from the comics, don't hassle me. ]










Iron Man series + appearances (2008 -ย  2019)



[ duh, pretty self-explanatory. the piece will not work without a backdrop and assuming that the sexy Malibuย house in IM3 is not destroyed. so, he still lives there and is hanging around for business. ]

โ€”HI THERE!ย I'm dee and welcome to 'The Darkest Hour'! I hope you love snappy comebacks and back to back one-liners because this book is for the TONY STARK, so don't expect any less! first off, this is a work of fanfiction so...


โ€”COPYRIGHT. PLAGIARISM IS A TRANSGRESSION AND OFFENSE.ย I don't own the cinematic or comicverse character Tony Stark aka. Iron Man but Eleanorย Preece and this modified storyline is most unmistakably mine. So you better haul ass if I catch you stealing my shit. I'm sending the Odinson brothers after you and it won't be pretty.


โ€” COMICS-BASED. This piece is actually loosely based on a comic I read recently (aren't they all?), and I really thought I could work something out between the lines. hopefully, this works out as great as I imagined it to be because Tony, is well, one of my favourites. ever since the first movie, I've had a soft spot and the hots for him and his antiques - most of his dry humour and *dank* dressing style making me one his superfans. and again, this one is bound to be great because I love exceptional sarcasm.


โ€”READING-STYLE. I would recommend reading it in the black-based theme and Serif font, just a little tip :)


โ€”NO PLOT BLURBS.ย I hate giving out plots or twists and if you didn't know me yet, I love suspense and drama (yes, I love the KUWTK what's your point?), especially hearing theories from the readers. I will be giving a pre-blurb because insight is essential.


โ€”BACKSTORIES AND INSIGHTS.ย all who think they need insight into the past, the chapter 'โš“' should provide a look into Tony and Elle's run-in. and as for Elle's past love and mistakes, the '๐ŸŒน' should do it. you could read them first and then continue, it wouldn't affect the storyline!ย 


โ€” SURPRISE CAMEOS AND APPEARANCES. with that being said, we will have special appearances because hell yes, this is the marvel fucking universe! Maria Hill and her crew,ย the Iron Fist and aย surprise Agents of SHIELD character!


โ€”ย without further ado, I give you 'the darkest hour'!

If Elle Preece could describe her life in one word at this very moment, it would be satisfied. She had her ideal job at an established press enterprise as a commissioning editor, an incredible apartment she shared with her boyfriend who made the news every other day. Sure, it was difficult to be in a relationship with Tony Stark, the man who knew all and did all, but she was sure to keep it simple and stable; one banana problems and everything. It was her motto.ย 


When the news of a bombing in Tabora staggers the media and the trails of the fissure lead up to Stark International, she is forced to withdraw her rescue statement from the outlandish effort by the publicists and respite by Tony's side as a pillar of support. With a bit of excavating into the enterprise system, they begin to realize that the allegations weren't wrong after all.ย 


Elle, resolutely, tries to prove his innocence in the improvised situation and using her job as the upper hand while ignoring the consequences. Only halfway into the case does she realize that she was uncovering former mistakes and lies that could rattle the base of their relationship. With a technological war on the brink and threats from the past, Tony and Elle realize that the only alternative is to leave yesterday behind and look beyond.
