Comic Review Paul Milligan

Iron Man #7

Writers: Daniel and Charles Knauf
Penciler: Patrick Zircher
Inker: Scott Hanna
Colorist: Studio F’s Antonio Fabela




Plot: Infected with the Extremis virus, Tony Stark has seen his abilities multiply and although he enjoys the freedom to do more in the suit than he thought possible, he is having trouble restraining himself so the rest of the Avengers won’t anything is wrong. Meanwhile, Ironman is implicated in a Russian mafia hit.

Review: I have to say I am a big fan of Patrick Zircher’s art in this book. This is the first in a storyline by Daniel and Charles Knauf, and they seem to be placing most of this storyline’s emphasis on Tony Stark’s personal demons and his problems handling his relationship with both S.H.I.E.L.D and the Avengers, with the action playing secondary. I think this could be a good thing for Iron Man, help him deal with unresolved issues and make for a fuller character. Something future writers will benefit from. Overall, a good read and it really bodes well for the rest of the story arc.
