Ngggghhh... I'll give you it. I was looking for red, *black* and yellow, but the colouring when Neal Adams dug it out for a couple of issues ([Uncanny] X-Men #60-62) often made the black look blue, as was the way of things back then.
It originally came from the Origins backups of Uncanny #55-56 (Chaim stopped an issue early ), where he had a short-lived and fairly catastrophic turn as "the Avenging Angel".
[X-Men: Evolution revisited the concept later, giving him a black-and-red masked costume.]
Anyway, Drake gets the next question.

Cool. I had seen the Adams version, but not the earlier one. (makes me wonder what he had in that big pouch on his belt)
NEXT QUESTION (two-parter): Which villains did Iron Man encounter during the storylines that introduced his stealth armor and space armor, respectively?

Really? I could have sworn I remember the stealth armor being created specifically so he could get into Russia without detection to get to CD's and TM's armors.
Ah well. Memory ain't what it once was.

Hint: The stealth armor was introduced in "Invincible Iron Man" #152. The space armor was introduced in "Invincible Iron Man" #142.

Iron Man fought the Living Laser when he used his stealth armor. And a guess of Sunturion (Arthur Dearborn) for the Space armor. (I couldn't find a villian listed for 142)

Correcto-o-mundo! (although he had switched from stealth to regular armor by the time he fought Living Laser) Those were some of my favorite stories from one of my favorite runs on a title.(back when Iron Man wasn't a jackass)
Your go!
