• TONY'S BACK!
An exciting penultimate issue that will make reading #600 a must. Read Full Review
This was crazier than a wet bag of cats! That said; I think we are all a bit crazy at times and I loved it! And even though it lacked action and I'm totally confused, I'm still interested and see so many creative ideas. With issue 700 coming as Bendis heads out, I'll take a ride on this crazy train just a bit long. Read Full Review
There's a lot left for the final issue, but everything is in place for a grand finale. Read Full Review
But nippicking aside, this book continues to be a pleasure to read and sets up for a potentially exciting finale to the Bendis era of Iron Man and the rest of Marvels Read Full Review
Invincible Iron Man #599 is a solid enough comic, and, if youve enjoyed this series, I doubt that you will be too put off by the silly dramatic reveals. It has its peanut butter-flavored Bendisian personality, for which Im a sucker. Its charming and has some good dialogue. I can recommend it in the end. Feel free to check it out. Read Full Review
The penultimate issue of The Search for Tony Stark, Invincible Iron Man #599 sports plenty of dramatic reveals in an exciting issue... that effectively sets the stage for #600 Read Full Review
Welcome to the Oblivion Bar where the first round is on me and the pretzels are free! Be warned: like the pickled eggs at the bar, this issue is going to get SPOILED rotten.
So, Invincible Iron Man is kind of nuts and all over the place. It’s not bad nuts, like plain unsalted walnuts, but a good kind of nuts like the honey glazed almonds you get at a fair.
To give a summary a try of the last two issues, everyone is searching for Tony Stark. Blade, yes the vampire who wants vampires, came to RiRi and told her to join up at MIT to work with Toni Ho and Arno Stark, Howard Starks actual bio-kid. This way, the 3 of them could search for Tony while also helping to rebuild SHIELD in the disguise of MIT. Tony finally shows more
Doom, Tony, and Riri all bend toward the climax in this surprise-sodden issue. The art is excellent and some of the dialogue is very nice; balanced against that is the inescapable feeling that we're about to fall into a giant, stupid traffic jam. The introduction of Leonardo Da Vinci is the clearest sign of impending disaster. There is just the tiniest possibility that that surprise could be made entertaining with a LOT of development. A lot of development is exactly what it's not going to get thanks to all the other stuff queued up for #600. Instead, it's just going to be a hallucinatory widget, a weirdo thing for all subsequent writers to ignore.
Umm...Part 7 in this endlessly boring tale of "where is Tony Stark?" I'm waiting for the 2020 sequel, "Tony Stark is Missing Again: Dare You Give a Fuck?" I don't really care about this at all. It's kind of crummy to see the two Bendis' titles on Victor and Riri succumb to this...boringness? I'm even thinking of opting out of the new Dan Slott Iron Man title, because...enough of this guy. Which is a weird way to think when he actually hasn't been here for a year. Except, oh yeah, his a.i. self was here, so it was like he was never gone...And then Leonardo! Fuck off, Bendis. Yeah, I didn't like it.
Crap sandwich straight out of the stink hole.
What is this crap? Bendis has been doing horrible on all his books as he is leaving. This Search for Tony Stark arc has been pretty much a letdown. Besides the Doom parts, Tony just coming back like that? What was that whole part with LEonardo Davinci? They are flying and then boom Leonardo just appears, seems out of place. The only thing worthwhile is the ending.
