    Iron Man

    Character » Iron Man appears in 11210 issues.

    Tony Stark was the arrogant son of wealthy, weapon manufacturer Howard Stark. Tony cared only about himself, but he would have a change of heart after he was kidnapped by terrorists and gravely injured. Pressured to create a weapon of mass destruction, Stark instead created a suit of armor powerful enough for him to escape. Tony used his vast resources and intellect to make the world a better place as The Invincible Iron Man. Stark's super hero identity led him to become a founding member of the Avengers.

    Pepper Potts is like Iron Man's Sidekick? I think that sucks! I want her to be strong enough o have her own series. But alas I suppose she had to start somewhere... But Norman knows its her... I could see how that may put a snag in her plans.

    I Do like Tony's new hair though... Spring is always the best time for a haircut. :) lol

    What Peter Parker, Steve Rogers, and Tony Stark all have in common is the fact they are strategists and tacticians, often using their skills and intelligence on the fly to defeat their adversaries.

    I think Tony TOLD Pepper to go and get the armor... I dunno, I don't collect Iron Man...

    I almost did, when I went down to Forbidden Planet to collect my comics yesterday, I was finally gonna cancel Hulk and start collecting something else. Either Captain America, Thor, Iron Man or New Avengers. According to this place, New Avengers was awesome, Thor was pretty cool and I hadn't heard anything about Iron Man or Cap. So after comparing them myself, it really came down to the art... And New Avengers #51 had Bachalo... And I love Bachalo... And the art in Iron Man was kinda... Meh.

    Cause, ya know, they're on the run and all that so he probably wanted her to defend herself... Plus...

    1. I severely doubt Pepper build the suit herself.
    2. I severely doubt she's wearing one of Tony's suit.
    3. Is the magic number.

    Glad you liked the Tinkerbell effect. Trying new stuff.

    If I recall correctly, Pepper was about to get nabbed by the HAMMER guys so Tony told her to go into a secret room and escape in the armor.

    He does not have the old suit again. He made an entirely new one using older technology.

    That was the impression I got.  I'll admit (since I edited this part out of the video) that I haven't been reading the recent issues.  I bought them all but would just skim through them.  It has gotten better.  I'm actually reading them now.  But it seemed like there just happened to be a suit for Pepper.  Unless I missed something.

    I just think it's pathetic that Namor - Marvel's King of Atlantis...Prince of the Deep...Lord of the Seven Seas - has become Norman Osborn's errand boy...

    I get that Iron Man was in a base underwater (but there are PLENTY of water based "bad guys" that could've gone on this errand), but since Dark Reign has started Namor (who is suppsed to be part of the "inner circle" of this little "Dark Cabal") has been totally disrespected...I can just see the conversation as Norman orders him off...

    Osborn: "You...Namor go fetch me Iron Man"
    Namor:  "Yes honey, shall I pick up some sushi for you on the way home?"
    Osborn:  "Yes...and make sure you are wearing your little green speedo for me when you return."

    ...what's next

    (and while I am not thrilled about the whole thing of Pepper in armor - a SAD revision of the character - I have always LOVED Pepper so it's nice to just have her around)

    thats cool with tony being smart and all but the fact that iron man and namor got drowned in poop is just totally gross i wouldn't take that as a weapon to use especially if it mean having me covered in crap at the end of the fight.

    and oh namor he is a traitor and to think this guy was a cool hero starting out in the 60's.

    btw G~man its good to see you headbanging to the iron movie theme.

    I agree, I like Namor but the way he's been treated lately is ridiculous in my opinion. Like G-Man said, at the end of the comic Osbourne tells him 'ow tough luck, better luck next time!'.. Namor should have kicked his ass or at least yelled at him for saying something condescending to the king of the seas!

    I don't really know, I think she's like me in the way weboths despise most weapon concepts.

    Pepper accidentally discovered the suit after she throws her chair in frustration. She was put in charge of shutting down Stark Industries and she can't handle it. So, she throws her chair and breaks some stuff and sees that there is a door to a secret laboratory. I don't remember Tony ever telling her that she had her own suit and to go get it. As for Tony using the old suit, he has the Superhero Registration Database, with all the superhero secret identities, in his brain. His brain is like a big hard drive and he's deleting it bit by bit. In order to do so, he needs repulsor power so he's traveling to the armories he has hidden around the world where he can get repulsor power to delete his mind and with it the Database. But with each deletion of data from his brain, his suits get harder and harder to control. His brain is losing its ability to function too. So, he needs to revert to older and older suits that he can control with the brain function he has left. Yeah, and if you read this far, I am an Iron Man fanatic. As far as art goes, I am a huge Adi Granov fan but I prefer the Tony Stark that Salvador Larroca draws.
