Overall, Iron Man #2 is a must-read for fans of the character. It delivers on the promise of a thrilling and action-packed story, while also exploring the deeper themes of power, corruption, and the human spirit. Read Full Review

While I'm interested in where this story will go, the odd pacing and uneven storytelling left me unimpressed with this issue as a whole. The promise of more to come and the art are what will keep me coming back to this title. I have no doubt that this series will pick up soon but for now this was a lackluster entry in the Iron Man mythology. Read Full Review

Good, solid second issue builds off the first while bringing all manner of new characters and complexities to the table. Read Full Review

Iron Man #2 continues the downward spiral of Tony Stark and readers' hopes of getting a good Iron Man story when Spencer Ackerman makes Tony and everyone around him make the worst decisions possible. If you have to make everyone an idiot to get your plot to work, I've got bad news for you. On a brighter note, the pseudo-steampunk suit is starting to grow on me. Read Full Review

Enjoyable corporate drama, with Tony appealing to the board members to no avail. Solid art and good writing, I'm enjoying the direction of the relaunch. Bonus points for the ZZ Stark look.

Not has good as the first issue but still enjoyed it I liked how is trying stop the company take over with the improvised suit and can’t wait to see what happens next

Art: 4/5
Story: 3/5
Total: 7/10

I don't think this is particularly bad, but I feel that it goes for an intensity, roughness, and excitement I kinda can't feel. It's aesthetically pleasing for sure both from story and designs and has neat ideas and moments, but somehow when it comes to putting it all together it struggles with the balance, and from the good'' this is too much'' goes to ''this is so much, that it is nothing''.

So individually I like a lot, I like a lot of the sophisticated, tense sharky dialog, I like the talks about economics and political allies, stark being in this position of a huge underdog and I like the idea of everything happening so fast has potential, plus the dream sequence with quite strong ideas, but as for right now as I've said mixing all those stuff mixes my feelings to into a black goo of confusion. It's all about context and here a lot of the context of one part of the issue does not fit with another. The dream sequence is an example of this IMO, which comes and goes so abruptly and it's not even like an explosion, because again it's not even that intense.

It's like there is an understanding that a lot of this is so many times done, that the story tries so hard to distinguish itself and throws everything at you. If this manages to mix everything more smoothly this run has potential.

kind of disappointing after the first issue
