Ironman's New Armor!

[AGGIEZ]

Is it just me or does the shapes and colors point towards his friggin' crotch???

 

I know Stark's a playboy, but damn!

 

 

 

 

Um, yeh, it's you....not that there's anything wrong with that though...

This is still the best.

[MagnetoWasRight]

Pretty bad to me...

[Kenglo1]

How does Iron Man get into his costume?

[Logan510]

 

This is still the best.

That was sarcasm...right?

[slym2none]

How does Iron Man get into his costume?

 

Hmm... so many responses, so little time.

 

1) One leg at a time, like anyone else (who may be putting on ultra high-tech armour.)

2) With a little mental prep and lots of lube.

3) Pepper Potts helps immensely.

 

I could go on.....

i agree, i have always loved the red and silver. in the movie i wish they would do a scene with his blue stealth armor.

[The Silver-Age]

That's getting dangerously close to the X-O Manowar armor...

 

 

I agree that they look very similar. But don't you think XO copied Iron man first? The light on the chest, a battle suit, etc.

 

Who copied who first? Iron Man 1963, XO 1992?...

[SolitaireOne]

It's okay, could do without the 14 lights.

Yeah, just a few too many...

[rjpb]

Looks the same as it always did to me.

 

I thought pretty much the same - not being a reader of the series, and having seen the movie two years ago, the subtle shifts in design largely go unnoticed.

No that really is my favorite. When I first started reading comics this was the new armor (around issue 200). When they moved him to another set of armor I stopped reading.

I think the problem with this armor was how did he raise his arms above his head? (Yes, it articulates at the shoulder, but let's be real here... as real as we can get with a man in a metal mesh suit.)

It was a nice colour set.

The shoulder pads just messed it up!

 

 

This is still my favourite

It's funny how his armor nipples move up and down depending on the artist.

I think one was the Mark IV and the other Mark V but I cant find a site that list all the armors and their differences

[Paratrooper]

Tony Stark must be heroin skinny to fit into that sleek armor.

[Senormac]

I like the new armor. It looks aero dynamic too

[Gatsby77]

Re. the XO Manowar comment above, there's an obvious link--the initial XO Manowar character design and (first series) issue artist was Bob Layton, whose primary claim to fame was drawing 60+ issues of Iron Man

Easily the best. I just re-bought a few of these issues over the summer. Largely unreadable drek, but that armor was awesome looking.

Looks cool. Robert Downey is awesome but I'm not thrilled with Whiplash as a main villain.
