Tony Stark's hover-chair

Tony Stark's hover-chair is a fictional mechanical device featured in comic books published by Marvel Comics. It is part of the Iron Man family of comic book titles and first appeared in Iron Man, Volume 1 #243 in June, 1989.

Description
The hover-chair is a specially designed mobility device designed and utilized by billionaire industrialist Tony Stark. Tony required the mechano-device after surviving a near-fatal gunshot wound to the chest by former lover Kathy Dare, which paralyzed him from the waist down. Although Tony eventually recovered from his injury, he was forced to use the hover-chair for quite some time. As he could no longer walk, Tony's exploits as the armored avenger Iron Man required some creativity. It was during this time that Tony functioned as Iron Man via a remote control implant while using the MK VIII armor.
