Invincible Iron Man #597

THE SEARCH FOR TONY STARK pt V


Written by Brian Michael Bendis
Penciled by Stefano Caselli and Alex Maleev
Cover by RB Silva
Published Feb 28, 2018
   While MJ, Friday and Amanda keep searching for Tony, Dr Doom zooms across Latveria with his mother Cynthia on his mind. He burns up a makeshift memorial to her and returns to his castle.

Burn the whole thing down.

   Meanwhile Riri Williams arrives at MIT in style where the acting dean welcomes her. He explains that things will be different from here on out, later informing her that the Ironheart armor is technically still her property. She summons it from a far off airport and it makes it's way back to her. Not only that, she's introduced to the team that is working tirelessly to find Stark, and recommended to them by none other than Blade.


Only person ever recommended to MIT by a vampire.

   Back across the planet, The Wrecking Crew is back and infiltrating the broken facade of Doom Castle when they're discovered by Doom Bots. The sentry robots take out some of the crew before an explosion interrupts them. Dr. Iron Man Doom has returned.


Take THAT! AND THAT AND THAT!

   Victor takes a few hits but although the goons think they got the drop on him, in reality he was just recharging. Finally Wrecker warns him the entire underworld is coming for him, before suddenly the Hood appears. The warning proves prophetic as the Hood and his gang rush in and team up on Doom. With orders to tear the place apart, Victor lies in a heap of trouble. But what happens next? We'll have to wait to find out as this issue is left to be continued.


We're coming for Doom.

   I mentioned in a review of Action Comics about how gleeful DC is on getting Bendis. While they're running ads about his introduction, it's a painful reminder that his tenure here is slowly coming to a close. Still, what a ride it's been. Thankfully giving Alex Maleev a chance to bid farewell too, this book just reminds me how great Infamous Iron Man was. I think I might go flip through that one again. I give this one a 9/10.
