It is very possible that it is steve in the suit. If anyone read the Mighty avengers preview it obviously isn’t tony in the suit. Soooo… my moneys on Cap or an new super recruiter.

Anyone else think. That Cap will die and bucky(winter soldier) will replace him…

Sure looks like something shiny in terms of the art. Didn’t think Adi Granov was still working the Iron Man from the looks of that visual.

Maybe… just maybe, its both Tony and Steve inside that suit. It seems big enough to fit them both.

Interesting pic. Probably fake.

On a non-related note:

I think Aunt May is gonna be dead … soon.

I just read an interview with Loeb on April’s “Fallen Son” project. Are they killing Mr. Fantastic?!?! Pause for reflection on Loeb’s interview and the cover for FF 545. No Sue, No Reed. hmmm …

Whether it’s Steve Rodgers or Tony Stark in the suit, the most important issue is this: WHERE ARE HIS FEET? I noticed this while re-reading an old issue of Spawn. Why do you see so many action poses not have feet, or they’re just buried like some kid came up with a plastic bucket and shovel and just pulled a fast one.

“obviously a put togeter image as the shield is fromthe cover ofcivil war initiative, same exact just cut and pasted on over a photoshoped image of an iron man.”

I think this is the real cover to Civil War: The Initiative #1 (re-colored, of course). Not only is the shield the same one we’ve seen, but so is the helmet. The black one was obviously sent around to avoid (possible) spoilers.

oh.. and wouldn’t there be some resemblense to caps other costume if it were him, i mean a star or stripes somewhere on this?! i do believe this to be a quick recolor job of what will be a normal iron man holding caps shield. anything else will suck!

two observations, the colors dont match up, that is the red and blue of the shield are different than those on the armor, seems if you were desining a new set of armor it would match(or maybe the colorist is just shitty)also who buries their feet in the sand to strike a dramatic pose? cant silvestri draw feet yet? lame

True, but adamantium or vribranium piercing rounds would still make an amazing weapon.

Dallas Barr: “That would be enough gun to even rattle the Saint of Killers.”

The Saint of Killers withstood a nuke and took on… well, I don’t want to spoiler Preacher. Regardless, those rounds wouldn’t even slow him down.

Yes, Steve is Iron Man in the JMS Bullet Points story, however, Tommy Lee Edwards is providing the covers. Not Silvestri.

Tom: “Nothing personal, but are you people idiots or something?”

The “collects Iron Man #15 – 18″ thing wasn’t there when the post went up. Apart from that, I’m definitely an idiot…

By: Dallas Barr

Dallas Barr — Sat, 20 Jan 2007 15:25:16 +0000

Owkay…

Maybe I’m going way too CSI into all of this but doesn’t anyone find it strange that both shield and armour are pierced by what appear to be small calibre rounds?

If so… That would be enough gun to even rattle the Saint of Killers.

Nice art though.

I didn’t read the solicit, but my first thought was that this could be from Bullet Points by JMS. He has Steve Rogers in the Iron Man suit in that book. It would be a huge coincidence if the real Marvel U went that same direction…and not one I’d like.

I like it. Amalgamated characters are fun and it would make a cool action figure.

Where are his feet?!?!

By: Tom

Nothing personal, but are you people idiots or something?

1. Do you not see where it says “Collects Iron Man 15-18″

2. The “We learn that Tony stark was never in the iron man suit!!” quote was a review not part of the solicit.

3. Silvestri drew the cover, he didn’t color it.

4. Covers aren’t literal. Just because there are bullet holes in the Shield doesn’t mean that is actually what happens to the shield in the story.

Hey isn’t somebody decisive supposed to change sides in CW #7? Well since we know who’s gonna win (way to keep the secret Marvel) and we know someone new is gonna be director of SHEILD then here’s guessing Iron Man and Cap are gonna be the same guy. Question is, who? I’m thinking Steve Rogers will be director of SHEILD and Tony Stark will be Iron Cap. Mind blowing eh?

Cute, Silvestri. I’m done with anything ‘New’ Avengers related. But still a neat pic.

Isn’t Steve Rogers Iron Man in JMS’ mini-series, Bullet Points?

If you recall, Cap’s shield has been broken (during Mark Waid’s run) and it was dented by Thor (in Avengers, I believe).

By: jboyle

jboyle — Sat, 20 Jan 2007 00:48:06 +0000

Sorry, not to be nit-picky but Cap’s shield is made out of a vibranium/steel alloy that has never been duplicated. But the reverse engineering of it is what lead to the discovery of adamantium. So it would be possible to break it, but very difficult.
