Iron Man: The End

[Koete]

I really enjoyed this. It's really an epilogue to the 80's Iron Man (not surprising considering the plotters were Micheline and Layton) rather than the current one, but considering the current state of Iron Man that's not a bad thing. I thought Micheline handled Tony Stark facing his age very well and the art was quite good. I didn't count the ad to story page ratio, but I definitely felt that I got $5 worth of story.

I would have to disagree and would love to be able to acquire a refund for the $5 spent on this issue. I didn't think the art was good and the story was predictable. Not only was the story predictable...the dialogue was poorly written. This might be the last Marvel "The End" story I buy as they have been getting progressively worse.

I liked the book, but did not think it was brilliant. I'd have to agree that the art was quite a bit rougher than I would have expected from Chang & Layton (based on their past work that I have seen). Maybe they rushed it or something, but I'd have to agree that the art was really below the bar for these 2 creators.

The story was a logical progression from the 80s books, but does kind oif sit off in some kind of "continuity pocket", so I can see where it would be off-putting to some.

My feelings were similar to Bob's - it was decent, not great. I was a big fan of the original Micheline/Layton runs, so that probably helped in appreciating it. I think it was more of a "comfortable" story, thna anything cutting edge.
