1* In ''ComicBook/IronMan'' #182, Tony Stark had been living on the streets drunk. After helping deliver a baby and nearly freezing to death, he lay in his hospital bed telling Rhodey about his decision to quit drinking.
2-->Rhodey, I realized something else that night. In my own way, I'm as helpless and scared and ignorant as the baby. I need help.
3* In ''ComicBook/IronMan'' #222, Tony Stark was stressed out and wanted to take a break by having his housewarming party. He was running late at work and decided to use his armor. On the way there, he saved a trapped truck driver when his truck was on fire, he flew a woman in labor to a hospital, saved an actor and his home from a mud slide, and saved a girl's cat from a tree. He finally made it to the party only to find out that it is almost over. He then helps an aspiring actress get a gig in ''Film/{{The Color Purple|1985}}.'' After the party, he tells Rhodey that, despite missing most of the party, he is glad that helped all those people...but next time he'll take a cab.
4* In International Iron Man #7, Tony meets with his biological mother, Amanda Armstrong, for the first time. Tony tells her he'd really like to get to know her and loves her music, while Amanda is just shocked that the baby she gave up for adoption is the superhero Iron Man. They end up embracing each other with tears in their eyes.
5-->Amanda: My boy.
