It's great to see this character getting the treatment he deserves! (The readers deserve it, too!) Read Full Review
This book has been picking up speed exponentially with each issue. Although this issue doesn't have quite the same sense of fun as #2, the intensity and wit are both still firmly in place. Read Full Review
The issue ends with another night time stealth ops where ninja shadow warriors meet Tony in a Madame Masque related trap ,and issue four promises major changes to the usual Tony Stark formula in the form of the arrival of Mary Jane Watson. If the ride we've witnessed thus far in these four issues are any indicator for Tony's future, readers will be enjoying the new Invincible Iron Man for months to come. Read Full Review
Brian Michael Bendis and David Marquez's Invincible Iron Man continues to be a delight well into the third issue. Bendis brings his trademark style steeped in decompression to Marvel's shell head with aplomb; the dialogue is witty without feeling snarky, the artwork is just polished enough, and the narrative is actually interesting without resorting to flashbacks or constant references to immediately post-Secret Wars.

Brian Bendis and David Marquez are a great team, and as this series goes on both of them appear to get more comfortable living in this world. It's unclear where Bendis plans to take Iron Man beyond this storyline or what the greater goals are with this series, but any fan of ol' shellhead can find a lot to like here. The great character work that Bendis is known for is on full display and Marquez continues to deliver stellar artwork every issue. Read Full Review
I would only recommend Invincible Iron Man #3 to older comic book readers who are die-hard Bendis fans. The average comic book reader will find this issue to be shallow, uninteresting and most certainly not worth the $4 cover price. Read Full Review
Brian Michael Bendis has showed already that he knows the character of Tony Stark as well as any writer who has ever been on his series. There are some really good scenes that involve Tony on a personal level and his professional level as Iron Man. This arc appears to be a mystery that Stark must unravel and its worked for me to this point.
Props to Bendis for making Stark relatable again! Before he was just a rich guy acting like a kid with a suit of armor. Now, he just seems more human and likable. Yes, he's still rich and snobbish. But he has a vulnerable side, which is always nice to see. And props to Marquez for the art. It's sleek and sophisticated. I really can't wait for next issue!
I am giving this a 9 because it has the potential to become a 10. I'm really digging his new armor. Hopefully the story line wont get too weird. This so far is one of the only books i'm really into.
