Sunset Bain sends a new War Machine after Iron Man, and Tony is so damaged within the armor that it takes the help of Warbird to drive off this new threat. Back in Tony's new Seattle Smart House, Jane Foster and Hank Pym give Tony the bad news, the Iron Man armor is actually killing him! Tony has to promise to give up the armor and recuperate.
