10 Times Iron Man Outsmarted Everyone

What's the one thing worse than being attacked by a mammoth suit of life-threatening armour named 'The Godkiller'? Realising that you're trapped in the spaceship sized machine as it tries to explode with you in it, that's what.

And that's also exactly the situation that Iron Man finds himself in by issue 16 of the 2013 Iron Man comic. Despite having no way to understand any of the controls - or even any way to find out, as the system works entirely in a long-forgotten alien language - Stark is able to not only safely escape the ship intact, but to also manages to take with him the unconscious body of an android that he'd had to try and fight while simultaneously working all of this out.

Oh, and he manages all of these shenanigans while a second, different robot assassin hunts him through the ship. So it's a pretty good day's work in the outsmarting department, all in all.
