Review 2: Thanks to Dale Eaglesham being on art for a few issues, this volume is better, but there are still 3 issues of Greg Land to get through first. If you're a real Iron Man, you may enjoy this different take here. The art is nothing very special, though the cover. But Gillen is having to much fun to be a humbug about it. There are some plot holes with how an alien controls Stark's suit, and some of the dialogue feels clunky - especially with his suit's computer which he has now programmed to react to him like Pepper. It's not my kind of thing, BUT it's just done so well. These days I prefer a heavy dose of reality in my comics with an acknowledgment of the mythical role these stories play. This is NOT my kind of comic book except that it features Iron Man. Review 1: Here's the deal: If you're going to put out a comic book about Tony Stark being somehow connected to an alien race and little grey martians owning most of Vegas, better have Kieron Gillen write it.
