    Iron Man

    Character » Iron Man appears in 11197 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.

    While a I'm a major fan of the War Machine design, among the Iron Man armors my preferences goes for the Modular Armor.
    Why?
    Well for one simple reason, as the author orignal author of it ( Len Kaminski) noted, it doesn't matter how good Stark is at building armors, somehow he'll always need to add/modify/tweak something in order to face certain opponents (the first Hulkbuster armor was simply an extra layer of the modular) so it stand to reason to make the armor able to accept the modifications as easily as possible.

    " okay if stark still has the shrapnel in his body, why can't he have vision go into ghost mode and remove it "
    because in order for vision to become tangible enough to affect, touch, and remove the piece of shrapnel.  Guess what.  He'll be tangible enough to also affect tony's body and organs.  He can't touch the shrapnel or make it move without turning his hand tangible enough to do so...and if he does that it'll kill tony..as he'll be solidifying a part of his arm INSIDE of tony's body.

    My favorite is the one he wears in Avengers Prime again. Not too old fashioned, but classic. But I also like the current one.

    extremis is the best suit to date, it looks like an engineered machine that people can actually wear, instead of a metal costume like the older suits

    The silver centurion armor beginning with the defeat of the Iron Monger.  I really got into Iron Man when I saw that armor.  The Bob Layton Artwork didn't hurt either!

    Everybody just loves that because it "looks cool" but honestly Extremis looks WAAAY cooler and it is by far the strongest armor.

    Didn't care too much for the show, but this armor being the one I knew in childhood is probably my favorite. In close second, is the classic late 60's/early 70's look.

    Iron Man has had some fantastic suits of armour over the years, however I feel that a lot depends on when you had your first introduction to our iron clad hero. So, even though it's dull, clunky and crude in comparison to later versions, I'm going for the original grey armour. I found it quite scary as a kid and, I can only assume, so did his enemies.

    I'd just like to point out (if it hasn't been already) that the "Hulkbuster" is one of the modular configurations available to the 90s armor, which is my fav.   Honorable 2nd to "Heroes Return".  Third to War Machine.

    it's relatively funny...Iron Man is one of my favorite heroes..Marvel or otherwise.
     
    however I'm not a fan of the "flexible metallic mesh"..so his arms/legs look solid.  I like the "movie-style" Iron man..where it has obvious joints and whatnot and LOOKS like it could actually be built instead of some metallic mesh-leotard that "hardens but remains flexible"
     
    as far my favorite suit? as said...probably the one depicted in the movies "looks" the best to me.

    My favorite suit is the War Machine,it's a walking tank on steroids. It has the most destructive firepower in it's arsenal, from the m134 Gatling gun to an anti tank high explosive missile launcher. It can withstand any attack  and has a thick armor for the wearers protection. One man can dominate the battlefield donning the War Machine armor. You can change your weapons load out which makes it flexible for handling any kind of mission..

    I think  the Warmachine armor Modular and bleeding edge are all really cool but for the best i'd say the Thorbuster from a power standpoint seconded by the giant space station one and the bleeding edge and extremis for the most useful.
