Hammer's Payback
Summary
Ivan Vanko ruined the Stark Expo. The world blamed Justin Hammer and made him pay. Hammer blamed Virginia Potts and Anthony Stark. Now he's on a mission to get his payback.
While Hammer is serving his 12 year sentence in a minimum security facility, a mysterious benefactor appears with an offer to break him out. The price: deliver Iron Man. Hammer kidnaps Pepper and demands the Mark V armor as ransom.
This story is set after Iron Man 2, but BEFORE Avengers. No other Avengers appear. Canon compliant with cinematic universe.
Rated R for mention of male rape in a prison setting (mentioned, NOT described) and PG-13 language.
