Er...I've personally seen loads of fic dealing with Tony's abuse too, often in really overblown ways -- in canon, Howard seems to have been a demanding and emotionally distant dick who never expressed affection or appreciation for his son, but obviously loved and admired Tony. In fanfic it's OMG HE GOT DRUNK AND BEAT HIM EVERY NIGHT blah blah blah. Not quite as annoying as the Loki stuff, but yeah.

And actually I've seen a good bit of abused!Tony fic that is very much like the woobie!Loki crap -- saying "oh, it's okay that Tony was such a giant dick pre-Afghanistan because he was DEALING WITH THE PAAAAIIIINNN" or "he only wanted to build weapons to make his daddy proud!" Like, no. Pre-Afghanistan Tony was a gigantic dickwad. Yeah, he had some redeeming qualities, but mostly he was a dickwad. Afghanistan is what made him change himself into a hero. That's actually maybe my favorite part of the entire character and the reason why Tony Stark is one of my favorite ever fictional characters of all time: the idea that this shallow selfish asshole could learn from an experience, open his eyes, absorb the idea that holy shit, I've done horrible things, and decide to tear down everything about his life and his beliefs and his profession and rebuild himself as a hero, all through sheer force of will. That's awesome.

So much +1 for this =D All the reasons you listed are why he's one of my favourite heros too. It's one thing to be born with super powers, it's another thing to make yourself into a hero.
