Fear Itself #5: Iron Man Forges An Asgardian Sword?

What could Tony Stark be doing in the preview for Fear Itself #5?

It's hard to believe that only a week ago Marvel fans picked up issue #4 of Fear Itself and already they are getting a peek at what to expect from the fifth issue which is set to hit stores on August 8th, 2011. If you still haven't read the issue (I don't know why you wouldn't have) and don't want it spoiled for you, then I suggest you stop reading.

Last issue we saw a very exhausted (and slightly drunk) Iron Man come face to face with Odin. One look at the preview and you may notice the continuation of that very scene below. Now, the really cool thing about artist Stuart Immonen is he's so good that you can practically guess what is being said in that panel based on the expression on Tony Stark's face. You have to wonder, is Tony going to be given some special Asgardian powers? Will he be forging his own Asgardian weapon and will he have to use it? And will Tony be the only one forging these weapons, or does this have something to do with the teaser of The Mighty that Marvel revealed last week?

We will also be seeing Steve Rogers face off against Sin in the next issue, and we can only hope that he will successfully avenge Bucky's knock out. Also, Thor vs. Thing and Hulk at the same time? That's the kind of stuff you would only dream of seeing in a battle thread on Comic Vine. What do you think of Fear Itself and are you looking forward to the fifth issue?
