When a moral axis inversion spell goes wrong, and the fix goes even more wrong, a guilt-stricken Tony Stark goes on the run to escape the fallout from his recent bout of magically-induced supervillainy. Howard can only watch from the sidelines as his son’s life spirals out of control, while the heroes who Tony used to call his friends are forced to hunt him down for his crimes. And things only get worse from there.
TL;DR: what if the Superior Iron Man comics arc happened in Armored Adventures but also everything was even more terrible?
