IRON MAN’S GODBUSTER ARMOUR
Iron Man's Godbuster armour is said to be among his strongest creations. The suit debuted in Tony Stark: Iron Man #10 by Dan Slott, Jim Zub, Valerio Schiti, Edgar Delgado, and Joe Caramagna. This storyline saw Tony getting trapped inside a virtual reality known as eScape that he had helped create while Motherboard ( who had god-like powers) was trying to keep him there by fabricating the reality around him. In order to escape the virtual reality and stop chaos in the real world happening outside the virtual reality, Tony created the Godbuster armor to stop her. Then, after reconnecting with his real-life body, he was able to build the Godbuster armor in real life. Having completed this, Stark then goes after the Controller and uses it to stop him.
CREATION OF THE ARMOUR
In the comics, Jocasta is seen leading Stark Unlimited as they monitor the global destruction caused by the eScape users under the Controller's influence, while Jim Rhodes and Wasp continue fighting the villain with help of the Baintronics security team led by Gauntlet. Amanda Armstrong and Machine Man remain trapped inside the eScape, where Tony Stark breaks free from Motherboard's influence. When she begins to reshape reality to try to calm him down, Tony eventually turns him back into a child who doesn't remember Amanda.
In the meantime while Andy Bhang is figuring out a possible method to cut off the Controller's influence, Sunset Bain assumes a helpful appearance in order to convince Jocasta to grant her partial access to the eScape systems, thus ensuring that Arno Stark gains full access. Andy finishes the blocking signal and it is broadcast all over the world, freeing the eScape users. Back at the eScape, while Tony causes Amanda to log off, he also turns against Motherboard and the construct of Howard Stark, who are revealed to have been the A.I. duplicates of Maria and Howard Stark, taken from the supercomputer Mistress and the real-life Arsenal robot created by Tony years earlier. Breaking free of Howard's shadow by destroying Arsenal, the eScape allows Tony's mind to not be held back by the limitations of the human brain, and the full power of his imagination is unleashed which he then uses to conceive the Godbuster Armor with which he kills Motherboard. Remaining trapped inside the eScape, his virtual avatar collapses, as in the real world his armor was left in space by Motherboard, eventually running low on oxygen.
Simultaneously with the trouble caused by Motherboard, the Controller was obtaining energy from the eScape users, gaining enormous power and becoming near-unstoppable. After coming back from the eScape, Tony uses the bleeding edge 3D printers in possession of Baintronics to construct the Godbuster Armor in real life. After which, he uses the Godbuster Armor to stop the controller. Afterwards, Tony flies the suit back into the Baintronics factory and has it self-destruct, along with the resources he used to build it with it, as he decided that the armor was too powerful to remain in the real world.
Fragments of data on the Godbuster Armor are recovered at the request of Tony's adoptive brother and Baintronics' co-leader Arno. After he deposed Tony from Stark Unlimited and merged it with Baintronics, Arno combined the resources of both companies in an effort to recreate the Godbuster Armor, and thus creating his own version of the Iron Man Armor.
GODBUSTER ARMOUR’S POWER LEVEL
When observing the Godbuster in action, Ironheart says that the power readings were off the scale, while Spider-Man compares it to that of a "Super Saiyan." Even Tony's evil brother Arno states that it is Tony's masterpiece, saying he built the "ultimate weapon."
Tony Stark himself deems the Godbuster armor to be too powerful and dangerous for regular use and opted not to permanently add it to his collection of suits. It is therefore no surprise that the Godbuster armour is one of Tony’s most powerful armours, with it having been used to defeat even godlike beings, as the name evidently implies.
