Iron Man Issue 3 - Delayed

| | Comments (3)

Well, I'd hoped to have a review of Iron Man issue 3 up by now, but no such luck. The book appears to have been delayed, possibly until April I'm told. I guess I should catch up on Earth's Mightiest Heroes in the interim.

Update: Ok, just finished all six issues currently available. Why isn't this guy writing the Avengers?

Review: Iron Man: Extremis Parts 1 and 2

Iron Man - Extremis parts 1 and 2, Written by Warren Ellis, Illustrated by Adi Granov

Just wrapped up the first two installments of Warren Ellis and Adi Granov's new Iron Man. Honestly I wasn't exactly looking forward to this. Not because Ellis isn't a good writer. He's generally excellent, but lately, between Avengers Disassembled at Marvel and Identity Crisis at DC, I was starting to get just a little annoyed with comics. Identity Crisis was the best written bad comic I've seen in a while, and I am sick unto death of the "blow the team to smithereens/have a hero go bonkers/kill some characters in a shocking way/start the numbering over" sales boost plot. After watching Marvel mangle the Avengers, I was half expecting a similar treatment for Iron Man.
