Iron Man #16

Iron Man #16 brings the space opera home. The script and the storytelling of this series, in particular after the events on Taa II have been mindblowing. Cantwell has demonstrated a terrific understanding of the character and his perception by the rest of the Marvel Universe. Read Full Review

This reminds me a lot of silver age Marvel, but it's still modernized, so it's not antiquated. I really enjoy it a lot. I really liked Cantwell's Doom series overall, so I hope what comes next is as fun as this issue was.

Bringing in the cosmic power and Iron Man together has definitely been one of the highlights of the series and this issue continues to explore that along with Tony's journey to find himself. The dialogue is interesting and the ending of the issue simply keeps you hooked for more. I'm not a huge fan of the way they are building up Tony to eventually have everything blow up in his face, it feels too repetitive for the character.

Not as strong as the previous issue but still quite good. Stark has been gifted God like power and of course, mishandled it. So only one man can save him from certain doom....

Reed's one liner made this entire issue worth it, despite it already being good. Probably one of the better Iron Man series we've gotten since Fraction's run

Sometimes I'll fixate on the way a particular author does a particular part of the writing job in a way I dislike. Happily, a comic often breaks me out of it by demonstrating its author's other strengths. This issue is like that when it comes to Christopher Cantwell's ability to write snappy dialogue, which is on formidable display here. It made this a really fun read and got me to quit fixating on the problems I have with his plotting. It's a very talky comic, but the Big Wheel scene provides a nice bit of counterbalancing action. (It also lets the artist show off his well-rounded chops; he can handle both conversation and combat very well).

It was a pretty good read. I like the concept but, it still gets a little corny at parts.

Thank goodness, we're back on earth. The space run started well, but dragged on. Cosmic Iron Man could be interesting if it lasts a while.

Another dumb issue of the Hellcat... eh, sorry I meant Iron Man book. Though in all honesty the Hellcat title would have been much more genuine. She is the hero of this story. She is the one who came to Tony after ONE fucking panel where Janet broke up with him like it was nothing because that's how human beings behave in Cantwell's mind. It was fairly obvious by that fact alone what character Cantwell wants to shine his light on. The dialogue was atrocious, the art was bad and the fact that Doom appears at the end makes me think this book will only get worse. Cantwell's Doctor Doom book was awfully bad, much worse than his Iron Man, he just doesn't get the character but he insists he does so we'll have to suffer yet another one of his path etic attempts to write Doom. This whole arc seems like it's going to get even worse. more

You seemed to pissing into the breeze here. Might want to just drop the title. I’ll be happy to pick up an extra one just in case youre worried about hurting Cantwell’s feelings.

How about no?
