We've seen that Iron Man will be getting a few new suits of armor for Avengers: The Age of Ultron, including the fan-favorite Hulkbuster armor. It has been cool to see so many iterations of the suit so far, but with this fifth move outing, I still say that the lack of love for the classic widow's peak armor is a glaring omission. Sure, it may seem a bit outdated by today's standards, but Iron Man sported that look far longer than any other in his career and it deserves its cinematic due.
Iron Man's classic Bronze Age/Late Silver Age armor is still one of my all-time favorite superhero costumes. There's just something so dynamic about it. I realize I'm probably in the minority.
ReplyDeleteDon't forget the version with the nose. That was awesome too!!
ReplyDeleteWidow's peak? You mean, the one with the W-shaped façade rising above the eyeholes of the mask?!
ReplyDeletePlease, no! That was the worst of his iterations. Hands down/bar none/case closed!!
