"THE WAR MACHINES" PART 2!
• War Machine and Iron Man team up to stop a brand new threat to the Marvel Universe... like only they can. All this plus more hints to next summer's insane Marvel blockbuster event.
Rated T+
It's a breath of fresh air to see Tony not being limited in location (i.e. not fighting every monster ever in New York), like his secondary series International Iron Man coming later in the month, we're seeing a different type of Tony Stark that gets around the Marvel Universe and serves up a different type of genre adventure wherever he happens to go.

Bottom Line: It's an exposition heavy, slightly uneven issue of a book that's still one of the strongest in Marvel's arsenal. Read Full Review
Invincible Iron Man #7 isn't perfect, even though Bendis writing Stark is, but there is room for improvement in the dialogue involving supporting characters. Outside of that little negative, the issue overall is a big win for me, I love what is happening with the character and I look forward to seeing how long MJ sticks around. I also really hope Bendis doesn't break my Spider-loving heart and attempt to make MJ and Tony any sort of romantic item; but if anyone were to do it with any chance of me not hating it immediately, it would be Bendis.

I trust Bendis to take Invincible Iron Man to some very interesting and entertaining places. And he's already got a good start on that. Read Full Review
While Invincible Iron Man #7 is a clear example of one of Brian Michael Bendis' most frustrating quirks as a writer, there is still a lot of fun to be had with Tony this month. Along with a newly focused Mike Deodato and the rich colors of Frank Martin, Bendis makes this job interview centered issue as fun and quippy as possible as they work toward bigger things. Though Invincible Iron Man may be all about robot fights and replusors most months, it is nice to see that this creative team can deliver a fun and flirty workplace comedy just as well as they can blow up robots and fight ninjas.

At the very least, Tony Stark can say he has another beautiful woman helping him organize the growing list of vulnerabilities in his life and as Peter Parker can attest, this can be a very good thing. He just needs to stay away from Mephisto. Read Full Review
There are clearly interesting things brewing for the book, but a certain amount of momentum has been lost since the first story arc. Read Full Review
I found this book to be a bit of a jump up from the last handful of issues from this series. Mary Jane is finally getting some attention after being teased for the last two. I really think her involvement with Tony will be interesting. She doesn't seem to take any crap off him. There is a lot of dialogue but it is very Tony Stark like. You can almost hear Robert Downey Jr. speaking as you read Tony's dialogue.
It's going somewhere. We are finally introduced to Mary Jane this issue. And she's the new Pepper Potts accept a little less annoying. Tony has a great cast of people around him and Mary Jane fits in very well. I really hope they do good and use her well.
Don't need another spider-man book...
