About book The Invincible Iron Man, Vol. 1: The Five Nightmares (2008)

I really liked this book. It had great characters, a tense high-stakes scenario for our hero Iron Man, an excellent plot filled with tension and suspense, masterful writing, and nice art. This would be a good graphic novel for those who liked the popular movies featuring the adventures of Tony Stark. One warning I would give is that the content is probably a little too violent or mature for Iron Man's youngest fans. The villains in this story are truly terrifying. This was my 2nd time reading this, the beginning of the Invincible Iron Man series written by Matt Fraction. I think I underestimated it before...this is the beginning of what turns out to be quite a series. Here Ezekiel Stane, yes, son of that Stane, uses old Stark tech to set off suicide bombers all over the world, and the only way Tony can stop him ends up starting his own downward spiral. Also featuring Spider Man in an appearance when he's actually a wanted criminal (Registration Act)...A great set up to what's a great run on a great character's newest adventures. Highly recommended, and please start here and go in order.
