~Some Iron Man Info~

Powers and abilities

Armor


Iron Man possesses powered armor that gives him superhuman strength and durability, flight, and an array of weapons. The armor is invented and (with occasional short-term exceptions) worn by Stark. Other people who have assumed the Iron Man identity include Stark's long-time partner and best friend James Rhodes; close associates Harold "Happy" Hogan; Eddie March; and (briefly) Michael O'Brien.

The weapons systems of the suit have changed over the years, but Iron Man's standard offensive weapons have always been the repulsor rays that are fired from the palms of his gauntlets. Other weapons built into various incarnations of the armor include: the uni-beam projector in its chest; pulse bolts (that pick up only kinetic energy along the way; so the farther they travel, the harder they hit); an electromagnetic pulse generator; and a defensive energy shield that can be extended up to 360 degrees. Other capabilities include: generating ultra-freon (i.e., a freeze-beam); creating and manipulating magnetic fields; emitting sonic blasts; and projecting 3-dimensional holograms (to create decoys).

In addition to the general-purpose model he wears, Stark has developed several specialized suits for space travel, deep-sea diving, stealth, and other situations. Stark has modified suits, like the Hulkbuster heavy armor. The Hulkbuster armor is composed of add-ons to his so-called modular armor, designed to enhance its strength and durability enough to rival that of The Incredible Hulk. A later model, designed for use against Thor, is modeled on the Destroyer and uses a mystical powersource. Stark also develops an electronics pack during the Armor Wars that, when attached to armors that use Stark technologies, will burn-out those components -- rendering the suit useless. This pack is ineffective on later models, however.



Powers

For a time, due to an artificial nervous system installed after he suffered extensive damage to his nervous system, Stark had superhumanly acute sensory perceptions as well as extraordinary awareness of the physical processes within his own body. This is no longer a part of the character's powers.

After being critically injured during a battle with the Extremis-enhanced Mallen, Stark injects his nervous system with a modified techno-organic virus (the Extremis process) that not only saves his life, it gives him the ability to store the inner layers of the Iron Man armor in the hollows of his bones as well as control it through direct brain impulses. Stark can control the layer of the armor underneath his skin and make it emerge from numerous exit points around his limbs as a gold-colored neural interface under-sheath. While in this form, Stark has technopathic control of the armor and can suit up at any time, calling the larger components to him. Furthermore, the Extremis process has increased his body's recuperative and healing abilities. He is also able to connect remotely to external communications systems such as satellites, cellular phones, and computers throughout the world. Because the armor's operating system is now directly connected to Stark's nervous system, its response time has been significantly improved.



Skills


Tony Stark is an inventive genius who graduated with advanced degrees in physics and engineering at 21 and further developed his knowledge ranging from artificial intelligence to quantum mechanics as time progressed.

In addition, Stark possesses great business and political acumen. On multiple occasions he reacquired control of his companies after losing them and lead corporate takeovers

Stark received hand to hand combat training from Happy Hogan (a professional Boxer), James Rhodes (a Marine) and Captain America himself.

After the Hulk Destroyed the mk3 suit Tony went and build the mk3 Hulkbuster.
I remember when Tony was actually Cool. sad that it is so long ago.


I miss the classical Armor
Lol. Godzilla. Good times, good times.
Is it bad that my favorite Iron Man comic is one that Tony isn't really even in? Hypervelocity FTW.
It's strange. I really like Tony Stark a lot. His character is very flawed, and funny. Two of the things I like in my characters. But, I've never really cared for Iron Man at all.

Ever since I was a kid I've thought that War Machine is a way better hero. Admittedly, there isn't much substance behind this decision. It's just the way it is with me.
I am a huge Captain America fan. I have been since I was in the third grade. So you can understand my current feelings about Mr. Stark, thanks to Civil War.

thx for the info but whats up with ultimate tony stark wtf y is a kid and why does he have just one armor oh and does he still use the extremis armor

Partying Sex Symbol

WoW i didnt kno there was a fan club! this is AWESOME!!!
After Secret Invasion, Tony got nailed with a Skrull virus that rendered all Starktech and for reasons, possibly because he modified the Etremis formula, resulted in Etremis being rendered inert in his body. Currently he is a fugitive by the reigning Norman Osborn who wants access to the Superhero Database that has all the registered heroes identities, which Stark cleverly uploaded into his brain and had a virus wipe out the hard copy. He is trying to modify his armor for his current state and is slowly deleting the area of his brain with the database. Osborn has publicly declared both Stark and Maria Hill fugitives and accused them of trying to broker a treaty with the Skrulls.

He supposedly is a mutant with brain tissue everywhere? I haven't read it myself, but I think I read that in a summary somewhere. That might explain the Extremis-like armor.

No offense to Orson Scott Card, because he is a very talented sci-fi writer, but I'm not touching Ultimate Iron Man. Tony Stark is not Ender Wiggin.
