The nostalgia is strong with Iron Man: Tony Stark #19 as the billionaire superhero is going back to the classics. Forget advanced tech, and artificially intelligent butlers and co-pilots. It’s time for Tony to defeat one of his most nagging enemies in classic fashion.

Tony is facing his living nightmare, having realized he is merely a simulation of his former self, existing in a cloned version of his original body. While struggling to come to terms with that revelation, he was attacked by the hybrid of Hank Pym and Ultron, who planned to similarly merge his former partners Jocasta and Janet Van Dyne into a single body. Janet escaped, but only after Tony was merged with his Iron Man armor in truly horrifying fashion. Thankfully Tony has also been cured, but without an A.I. to help pilot his armor, he has been forced to return to an old favorite: his classic Golden Avenger armor. And even the public knows it’s a sight to behold.

The return of the Golden Avenger armor came in the final pages of the previous issue. But only in the new preview pages for Iron Man: Tony Stark #19 does it finally get to be unleashed upon the world (and the admiring public). Check out the official preview pages below:

Readers and movie fans alike are sure to wonder how the less bulky, more form-fitting armor would look if adapted off of the comic book page (the ultimate compliment, these days). But how long will Tony actually get to wear the suit in this adventure, before making way for Iron Man 2020? Questions will remain for the time being, but Iron Man fans can mark their calendars for the arrival of the first issue this January. In the meantime, read on below for the full solicitation details and plot synopsis:
