THE SEARCH FOR TONY STARK Part 6
Since the beginning, the houses of Stark and Doom have been unshakeable pillars of the Marvel Universe - and one of them is about to fall. No one ever thought they'd see what is about to happen, but the world of Tony Stark will NEVER be the same again. It all leads up to the explosive, blistering, quadruple-sized INVINCIBLE IRON MAN #600, with a cliffhanger you will NOT want to miss!
Rated T+
A great continuation of the story with amazing art and a good twist for both Tony and Doom. Read Full Review
All of the creators on this title have been doing delightful work for so long that it gets easier to nip pick and critique but we can't forget that we've gotten consistently solid comics out of them for quite a while now. Read Full Review
Invincible Iron Man #598 is a solidly fun and engaging issue as Bendiss tenure on the title nears its finale. Ironheart is a likable lead despite, and The Search for Tony Stark takes some interesting turns here. Caselli, Maleev, and Gracia all put in some good work, and the book earns a recommendation. Check it out. Read Full Review
There’s a part of me that likes this issue because it has some actual reason to exist, and there’s another part that’s annoyed that the arc couldn’t have been like this from the start. The ideal scenario would be to maybe pick up part one and then skip all the way to this issue, part six. You can easily fill in the tiny blanks that you’ll have and not miss a thing. If you have been on board already, don’t stop now. This is what you’ve actually been waiting for. If you haven’t at all, stay far away. Read Full Review
Invincible Iron Man continues the search for Tony Stark, but at this point, we're kind of just ready to let him stay lost. Read Full Review
"The Search for Tony Stark" is a dud. At this point, I don't really give a fuck where Tony is, I know he'll be back for his relaunched title in a couple months. So we get to watch Victor being bested by a host of clownish b-villains, and Riri make friends, and it looks nice, but man, Bendis' Iron Man story is flaming out. Wasted potential from what was a really intriguing storyline a few months ago.
What a lackluster arc. This issue was actually ok, but since it is just part of a long winded, past it's welcome arc I gave it a lower grade. I love Doom Iron man, but his story has not been that exciting and the main plot is all over the place. Not sure how this will end, but I kind of just want it too be over.
Tony makes a frustrating sort of contact with Riri and her new pals. Doom's story is twisted arbitrarily into a collision course with Iron Man. Visual and textual storytelling are both solid here, but avoiding mistakes is not nearly enough to overcome the entrenched antipathy to this storyline I've built up. This might not be the WORST of the title's "marking time till 600" issues, but there's no doubt it's one of that fraternity.
These guys have no idea how to write for Doom.
