Over the course of the last decade, Tony Stark has eaten his way through no less than half a dozen Iron Man armours. The most recent of which, set to debut in Infinity War, looks to be the sleekest of the lot, boasting the curved inflections of the Extremis Armour that first appeared in the comics a few years back.

While the intricate details behind this new suit are yet to be revealed, the inspiration behind it is clear, and while the Extremis label was already used in Iron Man 3, the technology behind the suit hasn't. This isn't to say that Stark will definitely be grafting the Iron Man armour onto his skin, but it's something to consider as the film moves closer to release.

By far the most important thing to note, however, is that Stark is fully invested in the idea that a greater challenge is certain to arrive soon. He might not know it's Thanos, but - of all the Avengers thus far - he's the only one to consider that another invasion could be waiting in the wings.

Infinity War's trailer already showed Iron Man getting slapped around by Thanos, so here's hoping that this suit is as durable, as it is sleek.
