Stark Young, born in Como, Mississippi, 11 October 1881, is the most cosmopolitan and multi-talented of the state’s major literary figures.
Stark Young was proud of his father’s understanding of humanity, his compassion for the sick and the poor, and the Southern principles which he instilled into Stark and his younger sister Julia.
Young presented the contrast between life in the metropolitan city and that of a small Mississippi town, the opposition between the life of a creative artist in the city and the student in the academic ivory tower of the Southern university, and the clash of values represented by industrialism and agrarianism.

Miss Stark was petting a Bengal tiger, there in a photo hanging in the "Paul Eagles Circus Club" section of the restaurant---a zone where legendary circus folk used to hold periodic reunions.
To our boy-brains, Miss Stark was the strangest creature we had ever seen---a petite, elderly, unsmiling lady with a kind of Harpo Marx hairdo and spangly circus outfit, who commanded her striped charges to leap, growl, prance, roll over, run in circles, punctuating each trick with a twirly show-bizzy flourish of her right hand.
It depicted was a young, beaming Stark standing behind a big, fluffy (and possibly smiling) tiger, her arms wrapped lovingly around the animal's neck.

When Tony Stark re-assumed his Iron Man role, Rhodes became War Machine.] The idea of Tony’s heroism being foreshadowed through his rescuing of Rhodes from racist bullies is hardly an original one, even if the method by which Tony taunts the attackers via his "unbreakable" disposition is fairly novel.
The beginning of the relationship between Stark and Rhodes is, however, scripted in quite an original manner, tackling the race issue head-on and defusing it in a fun series of gags which acknowledge the differences between the two boys’ backgrounds and personalities.
