IRON MAN 2020 GRAPHIC NOVEL (1994)
Cover art: Bob Wiacek & William Rosado. Script: Walt Simonson, Bob Wiacek. Art: Bob Wiacek, William Rosado.
Billionaire industrialist Arno Stark must accept an offer from fellow insanely-rich industrialist Marcus Wellington -- to rescue his daughter from terrorists. Why? Stark Industries is in a financial trouble! But Wellington has some sneaky antics up his sleeve, including a very nasty computer virus which could cripple world functions! The story is cool and the art is very good, making for a great read. Those familiar with IM 2020 may wonder, when Arno ponders his defeat at the hands of Machine Man (from the Machine Man limited series), why he doesn't remember an even more humiliating defeat at the hands of Spider-Man and a terrorist named Robert Saunders (from Amazing Spider-Man Annual #20). Great surprise ending, too, which connects the two Iron Man eras!
Hube's Recommendation: 4 repulsors!
