    Iron Man #4 Review

    No Caption Provided

    Cover/Solicit - 4/5

    - Would I pick-up the comic based on the solicit/cover alone? Are the alternate covers appealing? Does the solicit/cover portray what happens in the issue?

    Art/Colors/Ink - 4/5

    - Weighted Double

    - Do I personally like this artist's style? Does the artist stay true to the characters appearance? Does the coloring/inking blend well with the artist? Is the coloring/inking enjoyable and easy to distinguish what's happening?

    Layout/Flow - 5/5

    - Does the layout of the issue make it easy to read? Does the issue have a good flow of the plot and keep me engaged? Can I easily read the issue, to include lettering?

    Story - 5/5

    - Weighted Triple

    - How well did the issue further develop the current story? How well did the issue further develop the characters? Did I enjoy reading the issue?

    Verdict - 4.6

    - For what I thought see the review on my blog.

The whole arc is not very thought out because hunting Extremis (which is abstract enough) in another location against different people is not an arc in the first place. It feels more and more like Tony randomly fighting bad guys for a reason tha...
