When Captain America, Iron Man and Thor reunite...

Dude...I don't even remember how Tony got back to being an Adult again! Must have been the "Heroes Reborn" thing I guess?

But as of right now...Marvel has made Tony a total Jerk...and I'm done with Book. No big deal...I buy too many Comics anyway.

I actually don't know if they ever explained it. I remember Busiek saying he would eventually address it, but I don't seem to recall any mention of it ever again after Heroes Reborn/Heroes Return.

Does anyone remember if they ever explained how Tony came back from Franklin's pocket universe minus the baggage of Homicidal Crazy Tony and Teen Tony? Or was it just quietly ignored like the crazy uncle no one likes to talk about?

I think your right...they never addressed it. Just ignored it, like none of it ever happened.

then I'm going to believe it never happened

The Teen Tony came from an alternate universe I think....when he met screwed-up (by Kang) regular Tony Stark, regular Stark snapped out of Kang's control and sacrificed his life.

Then Heroes Reborn began....Franklin Richards created a Tony Stark for that reality and when everyone was restored to the 616 Marvel Universe the Heroes Reborn Stark was merged with the dead 616 Stark and had memories of the regular and Teen Tonys..don't ask me how...none of this really makes any sense.

Not sure I really care at this point....Marvel has sullied the name of "The Avengers" for many years now it seems....ever since Bendis took over. In fact, a step in the write direction would be to take Bendis OFF any and all Avengers related titles. And start rebuilding the franchise.....

I absolutely TOTALLY agree...Couldn't have said it better myself.
