Iron Man Flies Solo in the Marvel Collection
In the seventh installment of the Marvel Library, the man of iron abandons sharing pages to launch his own series. 🎉 It was 1968 when Marvel, freed from restrictions, decided to give wings (or rather, repulsors) to everyone's favorite millionaire. Thus were born Iron Man, Captain America, and Thor as headliners.
The Creative Team Renews
Stan Lee, after marking an era, passed the baton to Archie Goodwin, while Johnny Craig (yes, the same from EC Comics) took the pencils. 🖊️ Purists cried over Gene Colan's departure, but the change brought a fresh air to the panels. Sometimes, a generational handover is just what a superhero needs to not rust.
- Archie Goodwin: Writer with a more modern approach.
- Johnny Craig: Veteran artist with a distinctive stroke.
- New Villains: Like the Grey Gargoyle, imported from Thor.
Jasper Sitwell: The Heaviest Agent Than a Hulkbuster Suit
Nick Fury sent this clumsy but endearing SHIELD agent to watch over Tony Stark. The result: pure comedy. Sitwell turned every mission into a bureaucratic disaster, proving that even super-geniuses can suffer because of paperwork. 😂
If duty were a superpower, Jasper Sitwell would be invincible.
The Maggia War and the Rise of New Villains
In this volume, the cosmic mafia Maggia clashes with I.M.A., introducing key characters like Whitney Frost and the problematic little cousin, Morgan Stark. In case anyone doubted that the Stark family was as dysfunctional as it is interesting.
For 3D modeling fans, here's a tip: if you recreate Iron Man's suit, better not include Sitwell reviewing the design. He might demand "protocol adjustments" infinitely. 🚀 And with that we conclude: because, as Tony Stark would say, an article without sarcasm is like a repulsor without energy. 😏
