I liked this book. It does get very Fanboy. Which can be a bit over the top on detail. Yet I liked it. The Iron Man encyclopedia is very good at the end.

An unintentional treatise on the problem with comics' continuity obsession, this comprehensive story of Iron Man becomes headache-inducing when it shifts from objective history of the comics to an attempt to explain 45 years of oft-discarded continuity as a cohesive timeline.

With the upcoming Iron Man film coming to theatres soon, Iron Man is a highly visible reminder of Marvels colorful characters that have made it to the big screen. Those who have viewed the trailer online, are anxiously awaiting the film.
In the meanwhile, exactly who is Iron Man after all these years? Inventor? Politician? Alcoholic? Government stooge? With a 40 plus year history for the Stan Lee/Larry Lieber/Don Heck creation, 216 pages is a `small' look at a massive history. ... Read More
