So, having completed the run it was pretty darn enjoyable. Did it lose me at points, yes, did I get a bit distracted and skim read a couple of issues, yes, but when the story arc is that bold and confident, it is hard not to get taken along for the ride.

This is almost a dream concept for me. A noir detective series with elements of either time travel or immortality, this could almost be written for me.Iron Man, Mandarin, Stane and Hammer on Comic Book Weekly
Invincible Iron Man
One of the joys of reading Matt Fraction's work is his ability to handle a lot of pretty big characters in one story line without letting them swamp the whole piece. I am at issue 517 of Invincible Iron Man, at the point Tony Stark realises they are working together, and it very much feels like the end of act one, the start of act two.

The Invincible Iron Man
Having been a DC man for so long, the biggest learning curve I have faced is the Marvel Universe. Even though I hadn't read a DC comic for a generation, I was still strong enough on their staple output and more than strong enough to pick up on threads and get into my stride. Marvel was an unknown factor for me and I mistakenly thought Iron Man would be an easy route in.

It seems fitting that my first post would be about the man who has reignited my love for comics, Jonathan Hickman. As a keen comic book reader as a kid it has been 20 years since I have read comic books seriously and Hickman's Fantastic Four was going to be my first step into the neighbourhood.
