Invincible Iron Man #7 is exhilarating. A great story of attempted payback, the issue is action-packed and filled with exciting moments. This unofficial crossover between Iron Man and the X-Men generates a really interesting storyline for both sets of heroes, especially for Iron Man. Read Full Review
Invincible Iron Man #7 is super exciting. However, not due to what youd expect. Its not due to the action and powerful illustrations that keep readers on the edge of their seats. Its almost this strategic game of chess with epic levels of intensity showcasing just how sinister Feilong and Orchis can be. The thrills in Invincible Iron Man #7 are just after every turn when a new curtain is pulled and the game continues in such an obvious way but only obvious after Duggan laid it out for the readers. The writing is pure genius and the way this book connects to the X-Men makes it just as important to the Marvel Landscape as any other book right now. Id highly recommend picking this issue up HOWEVER it would be very difficult to jump into without catching up on the series to date first. Let me know what you think, have a great week, and God Bless! Read Full Review
Frigeri delivers some explosive action throughout the issue. The visuals are fun, beautifully detailed and filled with great energy that kept me visually engaged with every page and panel. Read Full Review
Invincible Iron Man #7 is a good issue and an important chapter in the Fall of X story. Mostly an action-forward issue, there's still interesting bits of character work to dig through, plus it's an easy jumping-on point for new readers. Read Full Review
The Invincible Iron Man #7 finally gets this series of its lackadaisical butt to deliver meaningful action, stakes, important reveals, and dire consequences. Duggan's writing is on-point, and the art looks great. Read Full Review
A well-written issue that just crosses the 9/10 threshold for me. This is really because of the impact of those final few pages. Rhodey getting arrested for infiltrating a Stark Unlimited building is one thing that Ton'y going to beat himself up over, but Rhodey being framed for murder is something even worse for Tony (also Rhodey, of course). It's also good to see Frigeri back and I'm interested by that new armor for Tony.
It's a solid episode that nicely replicates the feeling of a big-budget action-thriller. I wasn't particularly feeling it myself, but I respect the craft that went into it. And the plot twists rolling out at the end were very nice.
It's still mighty hard to shake the feeling that this title is an appendix to the author's X-Men run, though.
Feilong is shaping up to be a really good villain for Tony. Despite only having one serious encounter with Tony so far, his presence is always felt. The stakes have risen considerably by the end of the issue, and I enjoyed the new suit we see. However, I have been less and less engaged with each issue, maybe because I’m just not that interested in the X books, which play a large part in this. Good art and Duggan writes Tony and Rhodey really well, so my complaints come down to personal preference.
