Meanwhile aboard a gambling ship is Morgan Stark, the cousin of Tony Stark, who is in debt and gets forcibly taken to see Mr. M, the new boss of the Maggia crime cartel. Morgan is going to be punished by the new super villain Whiplash when the news shows Iron Man down in the street. Morgan offers to bring Iron Man to the Maggia for cancelling his debt. As Morgan brings Iron Man to his car saying that he is bringing Iron Man to Tony Stark. Iron Man plugs into the cigarette lighter to begin to recharge. Morgan delivers Iron Man to the Big M, then Iron Man attacks and mops the floor with the underlings. Then a wall slides back that separates the underlings and suddenly Whiplash access to Iron Man while his power is at its lowest ebb!
