Avengers vs X-Men cover #2

Marvel really wants their fans to be excited about the upcoming Avengers vs X-Men storyline. They have just released the cover art for issue #2 (out of 12) and it features Iron Man and Magneto. Other matchups you see on this cover are Captain America vs Cyclops, Namor vs The Thing, Rogue vs Thor, Spider-Man vs Emma Frost, and it looks like Wolverine vs Hope Summers. Its worth pointing out the very obvious 'Phoenix' pose that Hope Summers is in given the storyline of this comic.

The most intriguing thing about this cover however is the main match up of Iron Man vs Magneto. On a normal day Iron Man would not stand 5 seconds against Magneto. So you know Marvel has to have a few tricks up their sleeve. We have seen Tony Stark demagnetize his Iron Man suit in the past. We have even seen Tony change the material in which the suit is made out of. However, this is Magneto we are talking about! As long as there is metal in his surroundings or even an ounce of metal that was not demagnetized on the Iron Man suit (or Tony's arc reactor in his chest) Magneto will have a field day with it. We've even seen Magneto play with the iron in a person's blood! I just don't personally see how Iron Man can stand a chance against Magneto and am really excited to see how this plays out. It will surely be interesting.

What are your thoughts on this match up?
