I feel like Tony is the most fundamentally human of the Avengers. Weird in a way, since he started out SO over the top, but his emotional responses to the other characters really stand out as genuine to me.

I agree completely with your take on Tony. I wonder if that humanity is part of the reason he gets so much hate. Like... we see his cracks and flaws and it reminds us of our own, which can be uncomfortable.

IDK. Just a passing thought.

I disagree with the idea that there is any one set of characteristics that are "fundamentally human." We're all different. And I'd argue that's a pretty Western way of looking at it too. So many cultures and personalities in our world.

I think all the characters in the MCU are very human in their own way. I relate very much to Natasha's need to make up for her past. I also relate to Steve's way of dealing with his PTSD (or not dealing rather) much more than I relate to Tony's way. And I relate to Thor's emotions.

I feel like Tony is the most fundamentally human of the Avengers.

For myself personally, I couldn't agree more. Buuuut I'm not sure we can really generalize about what characters are the most "human." I mean, I would personally be interested in seeing if someone could make a well-reasoned argument about what traits are most quintessentially "human." And from there, if their argument seemed valid, we could apply that reasoning to the MCU characters and make an argument for which characters are the most "human." But even then, we couldn't really take it beyond a well-reasoned subjective argument.

That said, yeah, that's how I feel about Tony, too. Very much so. IMO he's probably the most neurotic of the Avengers, and for me that pings as "human."
