comment
Iron Cat is a 2022 miniseries from Marvel Comics. Written by Jed MacKay with art by Pere Pérez and Frank D'Armata, the series stars Marvel superhero Iron Man and antihero/thief Felicia Hardy, aka the Black Cat.In the first volume of her 2019 series, the Black Cat infiltrated Tony Stark's company building to create an "Iron Cat" suit of armor for her own purposes using Tony Stark's Nanoforge. Tony confiscated the armor and stashed it away. So imagine both Tony and Felicia's surprise when someone attacks Felicia wearing the Iron Cat armor which has now been upgraded with a much more powerful arsenal. Motivated by intersecting goals — Tony wanting to keep his technology out of dangerous hands and Felicia wanting to save her skin — Iron Man and Black Cat team up to stop the wearer of the Iron Cat armor who turns out to be Felicia's ex-girlfriend Tamara Blake.

Always Someone Better: Part of Tamara's motivation is also residual jealousy and anger at how Felicia was always Black Fox's favorite pupil.

More Dakka: When Felicia created the Iron Cat armor, it had no ranged weaponry, only had claws for offense and made up for its lack of durability with speed and maneuverability. Tony rebuilt the suit after it fell apart and added repulsors and missiles.

I Know You Know I Know: Felicia attends a lavish yacht party to lure Tamara out. Tamara, being fully aware of what Felicia's intentions are, takes the bait anyway as she has a plan of her own. When she lands on the yacht, all the guests reveal themselves to be armed life-model decoys who train their weapons on Tamara. However, Tamara counters this by having Sunset hack the LM Ds and take control of them. Felicia, who had prepared for this, calls in an Iron Man suit of her own built by Bruno and Korpse.

Xanatos Speed Chess: Felicia and Tony set a trap for Tamara in the form of a yacht party where all the guests are LM Ds. But Tamara has Sunset hack the LM Ds and turns them on Tony and Felicia. Then Felicia reveals that she had Bruno and Korpse infiltrate Stark's holding facility and build her a suit of Powered Armor for her to fight Tamara with. Tamara then plays her final hand by unleashing the Sunset Bain A.I. who has been infiltrating all of Stark's systems for the past 24 hours and has now commanded every Stark-built and Stark-programmed reactor worldwide to melt down.

Not Me This Time: Tony initially suspects Felicia of stealing the Iron Cat armor which she truthfully denies. Issue #2 reveals that this was what Tamara was hoping for: when Tony calls Felicia to accuse her of the theft, Tamara has Sunset Bain trace the call, allowing her to find Felicia's location and ambush her.

Jurisdiction Friction: Issue #1 shows a flashback to a job Black Fox, Felicia and Tamara pulled in Pershyy Misto, the Republic of Carnelia. Felicia managed to get the items they wanted but is failed to make it out unseen and is being chased by the local police. Black Fox calls the country's national police who have a mutual hatred for Pershyy Misto's local police due to their overlapping jurisdictions. The two factions end up clashing, allowing Felicia to escape.

Rivalry as Courtship: Felicia and Tamara started out as rivals due to their differing approaches to thievery and Black Fox's obvious favoritism towards Felicia despite Tamara being the better thief. They later became girlfriends.

Outside-Context Problem: Felicia acknowledges that she’s not used to actually fighting enemies rather than stealing things, to say nothing of the high stakes involved when Madame Menace threatens to trigger a mass meltdown of Stark power plants and she, Tony and Tamara are the only people available to stop it.

comment
Technician Versus Performer: Tamara and Felicia's approaches to theft are portrayed this way. Tamara is the more practical of the two, being good at planning heists and staking out targets but is also noted to be predictable. Felicia is more impulsive and careless when it comes to heists but can also adapt to problems much more quickly.

Faking the Dead: At one point, Tamara is able to fake her death by giving the impression she was blown up in an exploding fuel tank, when in reality the armour was tough enough for her to crash through the explosion and out the other side, using the heat of the explosion to hide herself.
