Dennis Miller did a nice psycho-breakdown of the success of Iron Man and why it is a conservative story comapred to the Hulk, which is the liberal.

In summary; The Hulk is about a guy who can’t control, nor discipline himself. He is filled with self-loathing and, even though he has immense power he can never really reign it in to bring it to his own purpose. Banner has to isolate himself because he fears what he is and what he may become.

By contrast, Iron Man is about a guy who is driven, not necessarily always right, but always doing his best. Stark works his butt off and enjoys the benefits that his power brings. His success and independence are of his own doing.

Stark digs who he is and enjoys himself compared to Banner’s who hates his alter-ego.
