MORE DEADLY THAN THE MALE
Millionaire industrialist Tony Stark has rejected the lucrative munitions trade that put his company on the map. But he can't just turn away when the antiterror organization known as S.H.I.E.L.D. asks him for help in its battle against the sinister forces of HYDRA. As the next step in its quest for global domination, the international terrorist cabal is plotting to use cutting-edge technology in a devastating attack on New York City.
