Iron Man is one of the most well known Superheroes today, thanks mostly to the movies. Iron Man's actually been around since 1963 (First appearance: Tales of Suspense #39) when he was created by Stan Lee, Kirby, and others.

As a tribute to Iron Man, let's take a look at the top 10 Iron Man comic book covers! (related: Top 10 Amazing Spider-Man covers)

#10 HEAVY METTLE!

Issue #246
Cover Artist: Bob Layton

We kick off our list with a very dynamic image of Iron Man being captured by a giant robot claw. This kind of perspective is very hard to do, which is why it's on this top 10 list. This is actually an extremely complicated piece of artwork, but it also helps that the color artist did such a fine job on it!

From Marvel Wikia:
"There's a new Madam Masque in charge of the Maggia And her orders are to kill the crippled Tony Stark. As if that weren't problem enough tor him, he's also got an elite A.I.M. force and the Dreadnaught after him, too!

Things get even stranger when it is found that the Police are secretly allied with one of the criminal groups! "
