Iron Man vs Mole Man

[MichaelC]

Month of prep for both sides.

Umm… I’m failing to see what Mole Man brings to the party here that could stop Tony.

If it’d been against Rhodey, then maybe the month of prep would make things more even in Mole Man’s favour.

But giving Tony Stark - who already kicks your ass six ways from Sunday without prep - a whole month to dick about with stuff is just asking for a cataclysmic horror-stomp. Remember, this is the guy who weaponised the sun.

Are we letting Moleman summon any of those giant Kirby monsters? It seems like that's what he normally does when he has prep, but that also feels like something that would be considered outside help.

Still don’t think that’d stop the guy who weaponised a star.

Tony gets a month of Stark-prep too.

I suspect the OP's intention was probably a typical Mole-Man subterranean situation with his monsters. But I can't imagine that meaning much with Iron-Man having a month of prep for this specific situation. Also, imagine Reed Richards with no P.I.S. spending a month creating devices he can carry on him for the next Mole-Man encounter.

It's been years, but Iron Man has prior experience with battling subterranean villains: the Lava Men, and Kala. Seems like Marvel has so many subterranean villains that it's practically a hollow earth. Mole Man, Kala, Tyrannus, the Deviants, the Lava Men, probably others I have forgotten. Morlocks, I guess.
