In this story set in the past, Iron Man travel to the fictional country of Transia to stop an genocide in progress, but the US Government, under pressure from other world powers wants Tony Stark to reign in Iron Man. But will the lives saved and the technology retrieved worth more than obeying the United States’ Government? It’s a good issue that doesn’t even forces the reader to having read the first one. The story is that easy to get into. This story is quite similar in set up the premise of the first Iron Man film and some of the stories by Matt Fraction on Invincible Iron Man. The formula here seems to work. Add some technology wars, some world despots and a couple of remote caves in the most inland and hard to reach places in the world and there you have a good Iron Man story. I read the first issue, but I admit this one is the best of the two. The artwork is a hit or miss in some places. While we have very good renditions of Iron Man and the many armoured opponent he faces, the regular people seems to be lacking something and their postures are odd.
