Iron Man is a long way from Earth. He now stands on the decks of Galactus' worldship, Taa II, in deep space, and though he doesn't have to face the World-Eater himself this time around, he certainly has to deal with the ship's most brutal and lethal defenses. If he manages to survive those, it's only a matter of moments before Tony Stark will have to turn around and confront his fiercest foe of recent memory, KORVAC. Tony must also face the mad android's zealous disciples, all of whom have a personal ax to grind with the Golden Avenger-THE CONTROLLER, UNICORN, BLIZZARD and their most recent addition, a robotically enslaved ORIGINAL HUMAN TORCmore
This Iron Man run truly could not be more perfect, and I'm eager to see how the ante continues to be upped from here. Read Full Review
Iron Man #12 is an excellent issue. The last couple of issues have felt like a retreat from the universal threat of Korvac, and this chapter now feels like returning to it with a vengeance. The action is electrifying and the unstable state that Tony is in leaves the reader on edge. The art is perfect for the location as the ultimate destination of this arc has been reached. Cantwells epic story is permanently escalating in its drama, so it is exciting to see what the next stage is. Read Full Review
Iron Man #12 reads like an action-packed thrill ride, but has deeper layers at work that are subtly adding character development and getting inside the character's heads. Much like the entire run, Iron Man #12 elevates the superhero experience. Read Full Review
Angel Unzueta delivers some powerful visuals throughout the issue. There are so many great action moments and the art perfectly captures the mood and tone of the story. Read Full Review
I liked this a lot. I really like Tony's voice here. This was more of a transitional issue towards the finale of arc 2. I'm ready to see how it plays out.
At last we're getting back to the main story after the unnecessary de-railment.
Good but nothing great. This story is starting to feel very basic and while I enjoyed the art I found the writing to be kind of corny. Something seems off about Tony and while I'm hoping its part of the story I can't help but wonder if its bad writing especially when you have those corny music lyrics in the story, it was just so heavy handed and corny.
R.I.P canadian guy
An increasingly battered and drug-addled Tony staggers through a standard-issue "storm the castle" scenario before getting stopped cold by Korvac's crew. Avro-X fulfills his inevitable, very call-able purpose. This arc is unfolding as a weird mix of pretentious strategic plotting combined with hackneyed short-term plotting and I don't think I like it. I respect how it's being done, but I question why it's being done.
I'm still holding onto the long-shot theory that Tony slipped into a drug hallucination some time ago and he'll eventually wake up in traction or rehab.
This one started off pretty bad, had a decent middle and then ended pretty corny. I am really over the hell cat parts, the fact that the team Tony brought is just ridiculous and the book just tries too hard in some parts.
I'm sorry but I don't see the purpose of this story other than (yet again) Stark is a jerk just for the hell of it. Avro-X dies meaningless. The art is decent but I really want CAFU back. And it seems like Cantwell took a hint with the songs in comics from King and that's not a compliment. I know the story is about to get big but the road there is tedious to say the least.
Some good action but overall the story is a bit boring
Christoper Cant(write)well is essentially a hired assassin for Marvel. A hired character assassin. This is a comic that provides a platform to belittle its namesake and to platform the next era of heroes. It’s subversive and mean spirited.
