Iron Man: The End is not a bad book, as it's still Micheline and Layton-penned Iron Man comic, making it a worthwhile read even if it's simply for nostalgic purposes. For Iron Man lovers hoping to check out more tales from this creative pairing, this trade also includes old-school issues of Iron Man #116 and Iron Man #244 as a bonus treat.
