"Stark Wars" chapter 7! Iron Man is thought destroyed by Firepower, but we all know that Tony Stark is one tough dude to ace! He initially decides to let IM "stay dead," but Edwin Cord uses Firepower to trash Stark's interests the world over! Finally, Tony gets his act together and builds a brand-spankin' new red and gold outfit! He nails Firepower after he threatens a Stark facility, and we see that FP doesn't have a chance in hell! However, FP has activated his backpack nuke, but it's jammed -- it won't launch! Great closing set of panels and a superb introduction to what is commonly known as the "New Red & Golds."
Hube's Recommendation: 5 repulsors!
