Well, it looks like Byrne got the nod to do "AW II" after things didn't work out with Layton. "AW II" is a very cool concept, but a total misnomer (like, where's all the armor??). This is the first chapter: Stark has mysterious pains in his back and shoulder, and we meet the enigmatic Kearson DeWitt! Also, someone is trashing SE's nuclear facility! It looks like it's...the Titanium Man??
Hube's Recommendation: 3 repulsors!
