Robert Downey Jr Speaks Out About Elon Musk "Cosplay" Of Tony Stark-The Tech Billionaire
The parallels between Musk and Stark seemed perfect on paper. Both are billionaire tech innovators with a flair for the dramatic and dreams of changing the world.

When Stan Lee created Tony back in the 1960's he probably took his inspiration from Howard Hughes.
Hughes had been the inspiration for a famous novel of the time, "The Carpetbaggers."
HH was played by Leo DiCaprio in 'The Aviator.'
Probably why Tony Stark's father is named Howard, too.
Could be.
Off topic but fun.
The book 'The Carpetbaggers' became a movie; there was a Western actor mentioned in the story, Nevada Smith. Does anyone else know a daring character named after a state with a five letter last name?
I told you before, I'm not doing any more research for your crossword puzzles. If you want to keep making them that's fine, but don't put the work on us.
/s just in case
Hannah Montana!
Alexis Texas.
Way more daring than Hannah ever was...
I'm, like, 90% sure that last name is more than 5 letters. (I mean I guess Cyrus but not Montana which is the character's last name)
Oh, wait
Hannah Monta!
Now she's not named after a state!
Does anyone else know a daring character named after a state with a five letter last name?
That's so reductive. The guy is MUCH MUCH MORE.

Hughes was smart though. Unlike Elon "Phoney Starck" Musk.
If you watched agent Carter, Howard Stark is clearly just Hughes by a different name.

Millionaire geniuses were a dime a dozen in the Pulp Era!
