Tony Stark has designed and built a variety of armors which he uses as Iron Man. Their appearance and capabilities are continually evolving as Tony modifies and upgrades his technology.
" @RedK: cool. is it part of his body like extremis?? "

cool thanks what new functions does that suit have?? "
No real clarifications have been made thus far. Iron Man has been fuelling additional power to his own mind, which makes him vastly more intelligent than before, and he has been called the world's smartest man twice, thus far, after this development. As for the suit itself, aside from being a fluid substance within Tony's own body, being able to transcend supersonic speeds, and use repulsor rays in standardised manner (blasts), nothing else has been shown, or truly explained as of yet.
@Morpheus_: thanks for explaining that. i wonder if it can absorb energy like the old SKIN armor. they haven't explored that aspect for a while. and i think its time for iron man to catch up to the time and have a suit that can go completely invisible. im not talking about the stealth suit, im talking about one that can't be seen on radar OR with the naked eye. i was reading an article and all these scientists are like developing it in two different ways (by refracting the light and by using cameras) and GI Joe had a suit that did that so did Ultimate Nick Fury. Its time for Iron Man to have that function too.

The stealth suit, as well as Extremis could be undetected from radars and the naked eye (Iron Man used that function against Spider-man).
Extremis could also absorb energy. Iron Man absorbed energy directly from the Sentry, in the arc the Mighty Avengers went up against Doctor Doom.

I think the possibilities are certainly there. Extremis was a very good first step but I think they should portray Iron Man as he should always be - using the tech of the future, now.

agreed thats what always made the character so cool. @RedK said:
@Violet-Eyed Dragon: It was a joke, The artist that has been drawing him uses actor Josh Holloway who plays 'Sawyer' on LOST as a reference much like during the extremis arc that artist used Tom Cruise; Plenty others like Tommy Lee Jones as Norman Osborn, Nicole Kidman as Pepper Potts, Sam Jackson as Ult. Fury, and various porn stars as the X-men.

oh i didnt know that@Voidheart said:

It seems to be bonded to him (and / or his spine), if the armor takes any severe damage, so does he. "
I think it's some sort of nanotech. Stark keeps it in the hollows of his bones that were made to keep his inner armor (the gold stuff that covered his skin when he wore extremis). It's probably just as powerful as extremis, but I doubt he gets benefits such as technomancy, healing factor. Wikipedia calls it "The Bleeding Edge". Don't know where they found the name though.
Although, I could see it as being weaker than extremis. I think extremis was overpowered.
I wonder if he has enhanced strength, healing factor, etc. now. Stark mentioned that his new arc reactor fuels his body and brain, enhancing his intelligence. Maybe it enhances his body too?
