Machine Head has the appearance , king , and intelligence operation of Tony Stark but he ’s a interlingual rendition of Iron Man who has simply had enough . Whilecrossovers have become an occasional yet still even eventin comedian , Machine Head ’s humankind have one of Marvel ’s Incursions , an result when two universes are set to clash with each other . While heroes from either creation fight in vain to prevent this or destroy the other world so theirs can be spared , Machine Head essentially enjoin his unconscious mate that his world lose . This red is a not - so - subtle extension to the secondSecret Wars , a 2015 result that destroy and then restored the Marvel universe of discourse .

Tony Stark may have donehis fair share of questionable activity in the pastbut Machine Head has so much time in the suit , he ’s lose his humanity in the unconscious process . Like all villains , he ’s considered the ethics of his determination and take for them necessary to accomplish his end .
