Iron Man Cosplay Resurrects Tony Stark as the 'Superior Zombie'
Tony Stark’s Superior Iron Man becomes a terrifying zombie creation in a thrilling new cosplay from Michał Gliszczynski (@mike_dd3d). This supremely powerful armor is a fan favorite, which makes it the perfect cosplay concept to combine with another fan favorite series, Marvel Zombies. The new twist on the iconic comic suit is a live-action blend of classic Iron Man technology and decaying horror, which is a true metaphor for the Superior Iron Man.
Marvel Zombies is one of the darkest takes on the Marvel Universe. Originally created by Mark Millar, Greg Land, and Robert Kirkman, it is an alternate universe where a zombie virus has infected most of the world’s heroes. Unlike zombies in The Walking Dead, the zombified superheroes largely retain their powers and intellect, though they are consumed by a hunger for living flesh. In Marvel Zombies there is no Superior Iron Man, as Tony was infected with the virus in his original gold and red suit and never had the chance to upgrade to the endo-sym armor.

Cosplayer Michał Gliszczynski (@mike_dd3d) has combined the Superior Iron Man and the Marvel Zombies concept into a new cosplay which he calls “Superior Zombie” on Instagram. This design takes the cosplayer's previous Superior Iron Man suit redesign and adds some new horrifying flourishes. The most notable change is the charred skull that sits eyeless inside a damaged and blackened helmet. This skull can also be partially obscured by a half-broken faceplate with a glowing blue Iron Man eye. This design evokes a new vision of horror for Tony Stark, and can also be seen as a fitting metaphor for what he became near the end of his own life.
