StarkAnthony - 1/18/2013, 10:45 AM
anyone mind making a list of what these armors are? I got most of them, but what is are the last two?
D117 - 1/18/2013, 10:52 AM
Awesome armor, would love to see Hulk Buster in the Avengers sequel.

@batz11 They need to keep Tony away from the GOTG film.I would rather see these people show up:

Adam Warlock
Nova
Ronan The Accuser
Quasar

I can't wait to see Drax kicking ass on screen.
Stumblin - 1/18/2013, 11:02 AM
That first image of Iron Man looks like a Go-Bot hahaha!
MARVELPSYCHO79 - 1/18/2013, 11:02 AM
@batz11 I would also like to see Starhawk too.
Zombie137 - 1/18/2013, 11:05 AM
That Destroyer Ironman is Amazingly Ridiculous. WOW
JohnnyKrypton - 1/18/2013, 11:06 AM
Plenty of obscure armors but not the classic MK V version he wore from the 60s to the 80s? Fail.
SeaSerpentine - 1/18/2013, 11:10 AM
Hulk in that second cover kinda looks like the Mark Ruffalo version.
CoolantTech - 1/18/2013, 11:10 AM
Nice Love pics 1, 4, 6, and 10
MARVELPSYCHO79 - 1/18/2013, 11:18 AM

BrotherStarkofMABMindz - 1/18/2013, 11:19 AM

JredTheRed - 1/18/2013, 11:22 AM
@nomis second to last you mean? and pretty sure thats the armor he had made from the same metal as mojnair
MARVELPSYCHO79 - 1/18/2013, 11:23 AM
@batz11 I think GOTG will be great but I hope that isn't the only members on the roster from the Comic-Con poster.I hope there is two more members.
CoolantTech - 1/18/2013, 11:32 AM
But this suit is God Awful!



KaneVonDoom - 1/18/2013, 11:41 AM
They are totally setting us up for a shit ton of different armours in IM3.
D117 - 1/18/2013, 11:41 AM
Always thought the Ultimate Armor was cool
Jolt17 - 1/18/2013, 11:54 AM
Awesome, love the original Tin Man and the classic sharp-head (Paolo Rivera is amazing) ones the most.
superotherside - 1/18/2013, 11:56 AM
I want to see a version of stealth in Iron Man 3. For Avengers 2 I want to see Hulk Buster and the new gold and black the comics currently have.
superotherside - 1/18/2013, 11:57 AM
D117 No Ultimate! He seriously looks like a lame Power Ranger in the Ultimates IMO.
Stumblin - 1/18/2013, 11:59 AM
D117, I liked it too.

Superotherside, how is it even remotely similar to Power Rangers? If you're going to compare it at least make it make sense.

I never understood why people do that.
RyGoR - 1/18/2013, 12:08 PM
...............


Words cannot describe the sheer awesomeness of these covers!!! Thorbuster is my favorite!!

@nomis that black and gold version is my new all time favorite armor Land has been killing it on the series! (Even if he traces porn stars lol) I mean come on who HASN'T done that??? ;) lol
D117 - 1/18/2013, 12:13 PM
@Stumblin Agreed, but how the hell does it look like a Power Ranger?? @superotherside

Now that is the definition of lame, but the Ultimate Armor? Not even close
Temple - 1/18/2013, 12:27 PM
Nice! They all look cool.
Temple - 1/18/2013, 12:29 PM
This is also a great way of promotion.
gaikinger - 1/18/2013, 12:50 PM

The ultimate ironman armor is horrible. I mean he was based on an F-14. Thats just not cool to me at all, Brian Hitch is a great artist and all but that armor just sucks. I hate it. The ultimate IronMan series with Orson Scott Card writing it was a cool story but his armor looked like a monkey. I dont want his armor to look "functional" i want it to look badass, so if the look sacrifices functionality for style, im all for it.
mgeoff88 - 1/18/2013, 11:34 PM
These covers are [frick]ing awesome! I love me some Stealth armor.
Alvahnomicron - 1/19/2013, 8:03 AM
I wish the movie armors had as much structural differentiation as the comic armors do.
dancingmonkey08 - 1/21/2013, 1:05 PM
ah, not only is this perfect to celebrate the release of Iron Man 3, its also perfect to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Iron Man in March! Its been one hell of a 50 years
