IRON MAN LEGACY #1

The Armored Avenger’s second on-going series kicks off with a bang as the WAR OF THE IRON MEN begins here! Tony Stark’s worst fears are realized when stolen Iron Man technology is used for ethnic cleansing in a civil war-ravaged land. When he defies U.S. government orders to confront the armored assassins himself, Stark sets off an international conflagration that threatens his friends, his company, and his very life — and sets him on a collision course with China and Russia, and their champions, Radioactive Man, Titanium Man and the Crimson Dynamo! Guest-stars galore! And a shocking last page reveal of the classic Shell-head villain behind it all you won’t want to miss!

  1. I dont know if I want to get this…kinda seems like a rehash

  2. doomwad doomwad says:

    Is this 616?

  3. AlanRob AlanRob says:

    The tone of the preview doesnt feel like the 616, but I cant seem to find a definitve answer to where it is set.

    If this is movie based I dont want it

  4. diebenny diebenny says:

    I’m getting it because Van Lente has been kicking so much ass lately, but I’m in the same boat.  I don’t want to be buying a movie tie in.  Heres to hopin’ this is good and firmly 616.

  5. cubman987 cubman987 says:

    My understanding is that this is 616….but I can’t seem to find what it was I read that made me think that…..

  6. cromulent cromulent says:

    I’m picking this up for Van Lente and Kurth is a great artist. Hopefully it will kick my ass.

  7. AlanRob AlanRob says:

    Just listened to a phone message from Van Lente on Marvel.com.  It happens in the 616, just in the past at different points in continuity.  

    If this gets good reviews, I will pick it up in trade, but right now not so pressing.

  8. I read it and didn’t find it great. It’s good. I like the whole corporate angle he’s giving Stark but this book did not personally turn my crank.

  9. PraxJarvin PraxJarvin says:

    This was good – I love the way Van Lente writes – but I just wasn’t grabbed by it. I might check out a collected edition as it might be fun to put some "classic-style" Iron Man stories on my bookshelf. 3/5 for me. 

  10. cromulent cromulent says:

    I liked this a lot, but didn’t love it. 4/5 I will continue to read it.

  11. Oh, and what’s with the reprint in this? Screw that, man. Marvel’s not scoring any points with me lately.

  12. Toshimoko29 Toshimoko29 says:

    Why aren’t Iron Man comics nearly as fun as the Iron Man movie?  Or the Iron Man 2 trailer, for that matter?  They’ve got a long way to go to get any crossover appeal from the movies.

  13. I find the main title to be really cool.
