History


Arno bought out his uncle Tony's company after it appeared he had died.

After being hired on a mercenary mission to raise money, he found he enjoyed the work. He employed a number of other armored personnel, whom he called the Iron Bots.

He was set to unveil a new time displacement device, but had to undertake munitions jobs to help finance the project. One of these was a large-scale nuke nicknamed the Planet Buster.

Terrorists found the plant where the bomb was located and attempted to detonate it. Cynthia Stark and Arno Jr. were visiting the plant during the attack. Arno suited up and killed the terrorists, but learned a retinal scan was needed to disarm the bomb. Arno went back in time to try and gain the scan from the lead man as a child, but was stopped by Spider-Man. Ironically this caused the msn to grow up with an intense hatred of corporations. The bomb exploded, killing Arno's wife and child as well as many employees.

On a later occasion Arno faced the regular Iron Man. Although his armor was superior, Arno could not match Tony's skill and was outwitted.

Arno was later hired by Sunset Bain to destroy the rebuilt Machine Man and the Midnight Wreckers. He failed and was humiliated by the automaton. However it seems he and his Iron Bots have battled the Wreckers and Machine Man on multiple occasions.

Later, he took a request by Marcus Amalgamated to rescue the owner's daughter from kidnappers. He was concerned that events in the Middle East and Russia would impact his company due to rising oil prices, and also wanted to take advantages of a new technology Marcus promised him if he rescued Micki.

However, it was a ploy. Micki was actually fleeing her father's company with data on a destructive new computer virus and the kidnappers were hired by Marcus. Arno confronted Marcus and was able to defeat him by infecting both their armors with the virus.

He seems to have finally decided to be a hero. Unknown to him, Marcus's advisor Howard is actually the elderly Tony Stark, pleased with his nephew's new direction.

Arno was also briefly summoned by the Time Keepers as part of their forces opposing the team of Avengers summoned from various realities by Rick Jones.

For unknown reasons he was briefly imprisoned by the Time Variance Authority. He was seen by She-Hulk when the Two-Gun Kid was released.
