Tony
Stark has trouble adjusting to life as a "physically challenged" (to
be PC) person. Meanwhile, Roxxon takes advantage of Stark's condition
(and the fact that SE advertised that Iron Man
was "away on some secret mission"), sending the Fixer
to destroy some key Stark inventions. Carl Walker/Clay Wilson (aka Force)
is recruited by Rhodey to be an IM
fill-in (in the Stealth Armor,
of all choices) and deal w/the incursions. Tony, after visiting a hapless
chum in an iron lung, thinks back to earlier days -- and a girl named Joanna
Nivena, who was once his fiancee! He is filled with determination, and goes
about building modifications into his current armor which will enable him to
move his useless legs! Double-sized issue.
Hube's Recommendation: 
repulsors!
