What If? Marvels most overlooked book was telling a story that people would look back on twenty years from now? Iron Man is doing more than just building toward 2020, it's currently dealing with A.I. rights. Much like Speedy being a junkie or Captain America throwing down his shield because of Watergate, this book will be a fascinating encapsulation of how we currently see our technology. There are some art hitches, but it's never particularly distracting. It's rare that a comic featuring punching presents philosophical predicaments, but this one is deftly managing to balance physicality and philosophy. Highly recommended for fans of Ghost in the Shell, Ultron, and anyone who's ever wondered what H.A.L. would be like with an alcoholic, self-absorbed personality.
