Tony Stark/Iron Man (Marvel)

Iron Man (AKA Tony Stark) is the main protagonist of his three titular films, one of the protagonists of the three Avengers films, and is also said to be a wealthy business maganete, playboy, and ingenious scientist.

 * 2) Iron Man is basically Marvel's answer to Batman.
 * 3) Iron Man being red makes sense considering that when iron is rusted, it makes a red color.
 * 4) Robert Downey Jr. portrays Iron Man exceptionally well.
 * 5) In fact, speaking of Robert Downey Jr., in an interview with Stan Lee Robert Downey Jr. admitted he was born to act as Iron Man.
