His Buster suits have a terrible success ratio though. Tony, for all his brilliance and versatility when in his normal suit, seems to equate bruiser strength to being "buster level" which makes no sense to me.

He'd have a much better chance of success if he exploits weaknesses rather than try to match someone more powerful head to head.

Exactomundo. His solution to fighting powerful opponents is throw more power at them (see the Magneto fight, and contrast and compare it to Black Panther vs Storm).

The problem comes when he miscalculates his opponents' strength, and it bites him in the ass.

1. Superman each and every time. Iron Man could hurt/annoy him but he just doesn't pack enough punch to knock Kal out.

2. If only Tony has prep I can see him winning in this scenario.

So Tony has KO'd HULK on multiple occasions but, he can't KO Superman? Gotcha.

Don't use such horrible logic.

Superman easily in both. Iron man isn't beating a top 3 herald with or without prep.

He can and will beat Superman with prep deal with it.

Only if we ignore prep for Superman, and Tony has been given a one sided dossier on all the things that have failed against Superman before.

In other words, if Tony is aided by Lex, and has a personality change so he's not such an arrogant SOB.

Prep tends to get overrated on battle boards IMO. No question Tony has a good chance, but I don't think he is favored. The points about his performance against the Hulk are well made, he has won, but generally doesn't seem to get all the way there.

Pffft... The question being stated by that is Superman capable of tanking better than HULK?

Horrible logic my arse

1st fight Superman wins easily

2nd fight even with prep Superman wins

I know what Iron Man is capable of, I'm laughing at those who think he'd win.

So what if Stark has red sun radiation or kryptonite at his disposal. He's going up against a guy who can move faster than Tony can think. Even if Stark gets a shot off of red sun radiation, isn't it established in the New 52 that Superman isn't instantly weakened by red sun radiation? It takes time for that, so that leaves Kryptonite.

Okay so Tony shoots off kryptonite energy blasts. Superman has been hit before by K blasts. Nothing new here imo. I see the second fight as Tony getting at least one K blast off, which will slow Superman down momentarily. Clark then keeps his distance and uses heat vision, or super breath, or freeze breath. Then a superspeed blitz KO, Stark goes down again.

Why are you even asking that question in the first place, when both men are so different when it comes to durability?

Your arse would probably use better logic, tbh.

Did your highness forget the original statement that brought this line of questioning out?

Still not seeing how that has anything to do with Hulk.

Just because something works on Hulk, doesn't mean it will work on Superman. Same goes vice versa.

What's so hard about that?

Which "multiple occasions" has Tony KO'd the Hulk in?

He only did it once and that involved circumstances. It's still a good ft for the character though.

No no, there are multiple instances, and obviously they wouldn't have circumstances or they wouldn't be worth shit. I just want to see what they are.

There are two instances.

Not exactly a replicable showing against superman though.

Iron Man didn't beat him in that first one from the looks of it, that was a rocket's doing.
