Story:
The first season of Iron Man involves Iron Man battling the Mandarin and his minions, who seek to steal his technology. The Mandarin’s army consists of Dreadknight, Blizzard, Blacklash, Grey Gargoyle, Whirlwind, Living Laser, MODOK, Fin Fang Foom, Justin Hammer and Hypnotia (original character). Iron Man has a group of allies who are based on Force Works and include Century, War Machine, Scarlet Witch, Hawkeye and Spider Woman.
The season consisted mostly of episodic, original stories, with the exception of “The Origin of Iron Man”. This late-run recounting of the title character’s origin is symptomatic of what is generally thought of as the season’s greatest weakness – despite the series’ large cast of characters, few of them are developed, leaving viewers unaware of their origins and powers. The show is generally held to have been at its best when telling characters’ backstories.
Throughout the season, the Mandarin spies on Force Works and almost deduces Iron Man’s secret identity before Iron Man tricks him with an android duplicate of himself.
In this first season, the theme song was composed by progressive rock artist Keith Emerson, known for his work on the supergroup Emerson, Lake & Palmer and for his soundtrack for Dario Argento’s horror Inferno.
The second season had a new animation studio, Koko Enterprises; a new head writer, Tom Tataranowicz; and a new electric guitar theme composed by William Kevin Anderson. Additionally, Iron Man was redesigned to resemble artist Mark Bright’s depiction of the character from the late 1980s.
In the season premiere, “The Beast Within”, Iron Man is struck by a missile, weakening his body and forcing him to wear cybernetic tech on his chest. Throughout the season, he utilizes various armors built for specific situations that he can change on the fly.
The Mandarin is given a significantly reduced role after losing his rings. His remaining appearances see him attempt to recover his rings and disable technology worldwide before being killed by bandits.
Another change was that Force Works is mostly written out of the series, parting ways with Iron Man after works with the Mandarin to battle Fin Fang Foom. Julia Carpenter and War Machine are the only ones who continue to work with Stark, with the latter temporarily developing claustrophobia after almost drowning in his armor.
