Ok that makes more sense. As far as rehashing jokes, expect it to happen if you stick an armor that looks like an iron rip off of Captain America to the non comic book reading public. When you don't want to have to explain something...turn it into a joke, seems to be Hollywood's answer to things of this nature. If Steve Rogers isn't piloting it, non comic fans are going to scream "lame" first chance they get if a serious approach to making a star spangled armor is taken, or at least i would expect so. Let's not even get into Detroit Steel, he's lame enough as it is.

Based on the characters that are rumored to be included in this movie it seems like they could borrow elements of "The Haunted" story line and "Extremis". Bear in mind I said borrow elements, so I don't expect this to be the exact same story for either, but it is a decent outline to weave a new story for the big screen from I think. Then it would give opportunities to include nods to the more recent Fraction run on Invincible Iron Man if they want to encourage viewers to check out the comic.

And since Avengers movie seems to be influencing comic continuity these days with stories tailored for a new post Avengers movie audience, I could see them adding a character like Detroit Steel, as you mentioned...I shudder at the thought though, lol.

I just hope this movie turns out to be a good watch. Here's hoping.
