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.'

Hughes was smart though. Unlike Elon "Phoney Starck" Musk.
