I have no adjectives to describe how great this comic is. Let's be honest and confine with one word - awesome. No, scratch that... Divine? A bit closer. Fractionalious? Yeeaaaaahh, a new praise-word for fractionalious comic! Write it and remember ^^
Norman sucked. Tony won. It's a short description for the last twelve issues of The Invincible Iron-Man. Exaggerated, maybe, but it's the illogical truth & i really plunged into The World's Most Wanted arc (who didn't?). So, here we are - disassembled Tony Stark fighting for his life (almost Bob Dylan's "Hurricane"). The next question running in my head was "What happens next?". I mean, obliviosly Stark will survive & fly in his brand new Iron-Man armor again. The influence of Siege is felt all over the place. But how all of this will put together, how Fraction will write it - that's what interesting.
Now i get it - two ongoing series in one month are welter for Matt. Consider, Uncanny X-Men is a lame-comic. I love Dodson's art (just hating Land's) but... Anyway, you-read-that-book-and-understand-me. But this "machine" (i like to image comic-books as a complex, a very complicated machines), it works on the other rules. I just physically feel how the writer put a little bit of his soul into this story. And only for Doctor Strange's "Trust me, I'm a doctor" words you can forgive Fraction all the other crap he did in Marvel U.
It's 4.5 out of 5. Great story, great ending, great artwork, great script. And only one minus - I want more & immediately.
