**History:** Young Bruce Stark was really lucky. He was rich, a child genius and was loved dearly by his parents. His father was the head of Stark International, an advanced technology and weapon manufacturer. He studied at the school for geniuses, an advanced think-thank named the Baxstar institute (see individual entry): he was the youngest of all there. At age 12, tragedy entered his life. His parents were murdered right in front of him in a terrorist attack, over some weapon misdealing. This gave Tony a severe aversion to weapons, and a desire to eliminate them that would guide a lifetime. At first, overridden with grief and remorse, his young mind indulged himself with non-stop alcohol and partying. On the brink, menaced with state counselling, he decided to quit everything to travel the world and train both his body and his spirit for revenge. He continued his studies on the road with the help of A.L.F.R.E.D, a computer system he invented when he was 9 years old. And it was thus for 10 years. Fate kept up with him in Afghanistan. He got recognized by the League of the Hand, commonly known terrorists and assassins, and taken hostage. Ironically, during the hostage situation a Stark land mine exploded near him and a shrapnel almost entered his heart. A fellow prisoner and scientist, Haddi Ducard, saved Stark life by keeping the shrapnel from killing him with a special designed life-support. The reputation of Stark as a rocket genius surpassed him and he was asked to build weapons for the League. He did, reluctantly, while thinking of an escape plan. Ducard told him of an old legend that was terrorising the region, that of a bat-shaped djinn. Stark secretly built a bat shaped armor based on an old design he did at Baxstar years earlier and with Dr. Ducard's Life-support as his center. After a hot and fear filled battle with the enemy, he escaped successfully. Unfortunately it was at the cost of Haddi life. In memory of every one that got murdered because of weapons, he vowed to become one, a supernatural one. Back to New-Gotham with great media surprise, he took control of his father company, Stark International, trying to change his politics the more he could while maintaining a playboy routine. By night he is the Iron-Bat, tracking illegal weapons, act of random violence and terrorism everywhere he can find them. He made many allies along the way, such as James Fury, an old C.H.E.S.S. operative turned police commissioner and Red Bird, a young mutant whose parents were gunned by local gang G.A.N.G. leader Bella Falcone. With time, from street-level, he built a reputation as one of the most feared and respected heroes of earth.
