Reprints:Tales of Suspense #84 - The Other Iron Man!/ The Super Adaptoid! Tony Stark is finally at Congress to tell them about the abilities of his Iron Man armor, after it's been put off for the last ten issues or so. As Tony starts to speak, he suddenly collapses as his chest plate starts malfunctioning. Although some members of Congress are skeptical and think that he's only pretending to be sick since he didn't want to testify for months, a doctor is found, and confirms that Tony's heart is injured. Tony is taken to hospital, which is reported over the radios, and heard by Pepper Potts and Happy Hogan.

He then activates his teleporter and teleports Happy to his castle. Tony realizes that the Mandarin must be behind Happy's disappearance, and that it's up to him to save him.Tales of Suspense #81 - The Return Of The Titanium Man!After getting rid of Namor in Tales to...
