In full "Iron Man" ensemble, Robert Downey Jr. had a few of the "World's Best Donuts" yesterday -- inside one of the world's biggest.

Tony Stark chowed down on Homer Simpson's favorite food while sitting in the infamous, oversized roof-topper of Randy's Donuts by LAX.
Hope he saved a few for Pepper Potts.

One fan was surprised to see "Iron Man" (a.k.a. Robert Downey Jr.) at LAX, and we have a pretty good idea why -- dude doesn't need a plane to fly!

He's been to rehab more times than we care to count -- so of all the places to stop for what we're hoping was just a snack -- a liquor store?! The good news -- we're pretty sure it ain't liquor.

Former drug addict-turned-"Iron Man" Robert Downey Jr. is riding a new high these days -- and has the kicks to prove it.

The 43-year-old box office superhero (left) channeled his inner Ralph Macchio while practicing martial arts with an instructor in his L.A. driveway on Wednesday.
Is Mr. Miyagi in the Avenger Initiative, too?!

Comic-Con -- the only place smokin' hot babes like Jessica Alba talk to guys dressed in Napoleon Dynamite costumes.
The annual four-day San Diego convention, specializing in the latest in comic books and fantasy/sci-fi/horror themed TV shows, movies and video games, took place over the weekend, and TMZ was there to catch every bizarre moment. Celebs like Alba (who had a pushy security guard), Rosario Dawson, Nic Cage, Robert Downey, Jr. and even Pee-wee Herman were caught mingling with characters like Storm Trooper Elvis, one-legged zombie hunter Cherry Darling, and the ever popular Princess Leia, in full Jaba the Hutt slave ensemble.
All this and more in today's where-my-nerds-at edition of Star Catcher.

Robert Downey Jr. has been tapped to play the Marvel comic book character "Iron Man" in its film adaptation. Downey worked out and grew a goatee in the hopes of convincing the producers that he was the right man for the job.
The complex character of Tony Stark (aka Iron Man) is far more complex then meets the eye. In fact, the similarities to Downey's own life are uncanny, as the character is a man whose life is plagued by substance abuse and chaos.
Marvel Entertainment executive Kevin Fergie said "We cannot think of another actor better suited to bring one of Marvel's crown jewels to the big screen."
Filming will begin in February.
