take fictional 'poetic' license on both plot and character -- and Marvel films have been no different.
Many movie commentators say that about how Marvel develops its films.
Marvel Studios strives to make accurate adaptations of their beloved comics, but changes certainly aren't out of the question. Stories are often updated and reworked. Some of these changes are minor, while others can be real game-changers...

Think Wikipedia made this up? Then take it up with them, right there on the page.
That one claim that this Marvel film hero had to be exactly drawn like the "fully formed" character of the comic source shows a general ignorance about how films from comics are made. Along with that one point that "proves" Wikipedia is unreliable, you ignore all the other facts of Musk's recognition.
I stand by my post and source. Take my point as a whole or leave it based on your illogical point. I'm done with this.

I had planned to buy a Tesla for my next car, but now I wouldn't touch one with a 10-foot pole.

Prior to his recent insurgency into the political realm, one might think Elon Musk has been larger than life.

I did. Tony Stark was a fully-formed character in the story before Musk was born.

Elon was born and grew up in apartheid South Africa, it's looks like he brought some emotional baggage

If you have to keep claiming you're an alpha male, are you really an alpha male?

He holds the votes to determine whether he's fired as the major stockholder. But I'd fire myself if I were like him.
