Yes that scan was Pre-Extremis. He has done remote hacking in the past, but now post Extremis ALL he does is remote hacking.
And ure telling me this is not impressive? His hacking into Annihilus's hive mind was so crippling that the wave is forced to retreat! You gotta give him props for that...

Eh. It wasn't that his hacking was so crippling. He hacked into his mind and using it he gave the order to destroy themselves. And being that they all instantly obeyed to Annihilus, they had to comply.
Either way, that's more a case of a form of telepathy than actual hacking. Both of which would not happen with Iron-Man. See, Tony has a history of dealing well with physics. He's been the only person on earth not mind raped by Mentallo - actually beat him in the cyber-astral plane - all because of some tech in his watch. Since I don't have those scans on hand, however, this will do:
When Tony was making plans to essentially delete the contents of his brain in order to prevent Osborn from obtaining his 'memories', one of his assistants asked why he didn't just recruit a psychic to erase those particular 'memories' from his mind. Tony replied with...
"Phychics can't read a hard drive" (3rd scan):
How bout Nova flat out punking a really evil alternate reality Avengers team and saving the GotG in the process? They all get swatted with ease when a no messing around Nova starts cutting loose!!! Mind you this "Revengers" team had some powerful members that included evil versions of Thor, Quasar, Iron Man, Ms. Marvel, Giant Man, and Captain America.http://i1238.photobucket.com/albums/ff492/twinzeeto/ThanImp_6_PeterWatts_CPS_013.jpg

Alternate realities don't count for anything. It's not canon for the real Iron-Man and therefore has no real account on what might happen in the 616 universe.

[B]Lulz. I'm enjoying this warm up. You kinda mixed things up by adding combat feats, but good response nonetheless.
Well, you kind of picked things that only Nova might be good at. Just because they have certain little oddities does not a great hero make. Like I said before, with the scenarios you used, a lot of heroes would be out of a job if that is what was expected of them.
The only thing Nova and Graviton have in common is grav manip. Outside of that they're two different people with their own strengths and weaknesses. And I can assure you that the shyte Tony pulled on Graviton would promptly get his ass into trouble against Nova.
Prove it. I'm not unreasonable, I've just yet to see anyone provide any kind of evidence to suggest he would beat Iron Man. All I hear is "he stomps". Someone give me reason to believe that.
Furthermore aren't those events unrelated? Graviton holding the heroes of earth captive during Thunderbolts happened prior to the scans you just posted IIRC.
So? I showed you a scan where Graviton had the world at his fingertips. Then I showed you a later scan proving that Iron Man can gone beyond that. The two events do not need to be connected to prove that Tony has evolved past him.
