Iron Man #262

In "The Enemy Within," Iron Man #262 (1990), Tony Stark finds himself trapped in his own armor as the brilliant but unhinged scientist Kearson DeWitt takes full control. With John Byrne’s sharp storytelling and John Romita Jr.'s dynamic art—inked by Bob Wiacek and colored by Paul Becton—this gripping issue pushes Iron Man to his limits, testing the line between man and machine. The cover by Romita Jr. and Wiacek captures the tension perfectly, setting the stage for a battle of wills where every move could be the last.
