>>93937131>Wait, OSC did some Iron Man? How is it?Literally just finished it tonight. Thanks for asking.
Ok, first of all, it's not canon. I'm not sure about the behind-the-scenes story, but for some reason this shit got sidelined to being a movie set in the Ultimate U.
Secondly, Tony has powers. Like actual powers. I won't spoil it because it's actually pretty interesting, but it surprisingly didn't bother me. He still felt like Tony.
And finally, the first volume was REALLY good. Good enough for me to go back the next day and get the second one. It was more about Howard Stark and Tony's child years. The art by Andy Kubert was amazing. I've never really been an Iron Man fan (unless RDJ is playing him), but this legit grabbed my attention. I'd say it's a really solid 8/10, elseworlds style story.
The second one, on the other hand, was pretty damn disappointing. I mean, it was fine, but nothing really happened. And everything that didn't happen, I kind of already assumed was going to happen anyway. The big bad reveal at the end was supposed to be a big twist, but I saw it coming from a mile away. On top of that, the art by Pasqual Ferry was garbage. I can't stand that guy. There's no style to his art at all. Just bland backgrounds and people standing and talking and every once in a while someone poses for a cool hero shot.
tl:dr the first one was very good, the second one wasn't.
