BONUS REVIEW by JOHN ROBINSON
First read Iron Age Alpha, you don't have to, but it's good, and it sets up this 3 issue mini-series.
Tony Stark sees the world destroyed and has to travel back in time regaining parts of Dr. Dooms time machine to try and
save everyone in present day.
Lead story is written by Christos Gage, who's named I'd heard but work I'd ignored. Time for me to dig up ABSOLUTION from Avatar and give it a whirl.
It's modern day Tony in 1980's (see Drunk) Tony and trying to use his old armor again. Stunning art from Lee Weeks (damn, he's great) this is a much
over looked story that's worth a read.
