Main Characters


Tony is a teenager who spends his time cramming for exams, testing his latest inventions, thrill-seeking, and… saving the world. He has to reconcile normal teenage challenges with the staggering responsibility that comes with his revolutionary invention: a hi-tech armour suit, which the world knows as Iron Man.


Rhodey is Tony’s childhood best friend and has an opposite but complementary personality to Tony’s. He is calm, almost withdrawn, and always thinks before taking action. Tony recruits him for his crazy adventures, and pushes him to surpass his limits. He is the strategist of the duo.


Pepper is the daughter of an FBI agent who just moved to NY, she spent her childhood following her father from country to country for each of his assignments. Pepper is full of life, energy, biting comebacks and humor. She is also a champion of verbal jousting and comical cynicism.


Gene Khan is the rich heir of an import/export family. He is also, secretly, Iron Man’s worst enemy, The Mandarin. Gene and Tony are two sides of the same coin. They’re both rich, trendy, powerful teens, with lots more going on in their lives than anyone suspects. They have the same background, the same status—but while Tony is a hero, Gene is a egocentric sociopath.
