This issue contains a flashback, "eight years ago", featuring the return of the Black Lama setting Whiplash vs Iron Man. The company is still called Stark Industries and Happy Hogan is an employee. The scene of the battle is in an Asian country.
With Happy rejoining staff in IM 71 and Stark Industries renamed Stark International in IM 72, this narrows it between A 130 and IM 72, when Iron Man is still in Vietnam.

Re: Superior Iron Man 5 flashback
I see your point with Stark Industries renamed Stark International in IM 72, but Tony speaks of the return of the Black Lama, and in the FB he knows the Black Lama is an alien and that his mind was damaged by staying on Earth : Tony only learned that in IM 80.
So I would place the FB between IM 82 (1 - 5) and IF 1.

I also have it after IM 82 (1 - 5). Of course, i don't follow that with IF 1, but that's another story.
Out in the Land Down-Under, beneath a rocky outcrop, deep within the back paddock, dwells the Stray Lamb.
Re: Superior Iron Man 5 flashback
It's worth noting that Happy Hogan rejoins Stark Industries in Iron Man #71, and Stark Industries is still called Stark Industries at this point. However, in Iron Man #72, the company is renamed Stark International. Therefore, the flashback scene you mentioned can be narrowed down to Iron Man #71 or #72.Leoparis wrote: ↑Tue Mar 28, 2023 8:18 am This issue contains a flashback, "eight years ago", featuring the return of the Black Lama setting Whiplash vs Iron Man.

In Iron Man #71, the characters involved are the Black Lama/King Jerald, Happy Hogan, and Iron Man. In Iron Man #72, Whiplash is also present in the flashback scene.
