I admit the first arc of this series wasn’t the greatest.  But once the Dark Reign tie in kicked in, this book has gotten consistently better with each issue.  It’s almost like getting four stories in one issue, as you have a Tony Stark storyline, one for Pepper, one for Maria Hill and Black Widow, and Norman Osborn.  I also appreciate Fraction’s writing showing Tony’s mind is deteriorating, be it his misspelled email to Maria Hill, or to his listening to an Introduction to Electrical Engineering Audiobook while flying in his suit.  With the fate of Pepper still unknown and a potential Captain America rescue of Maria Hill/Black Widow, I’m definitely picking up the next issue.
