[QUOTE=MichaelC;5207662]In-universe the characterization is dubious, but as a meta-commentary it works. Cantwell seems to be fudging characterization a bit to make a meta point about comics readers and writers general response to Stark. Periodically writers just want to use Stark as a villain because they like other characters better and don't like the idea of a rich former weapons inventor being redeemed. Which has created a general antipathy to Stark among readers, who think of him more as that guy who fought their favorite rather than a hero in his own right. So Stark is depressed in a way that is quasi-fourth-wall-breaking. Just with the in-universe public against him as a way to make it only quasi-fourth-wall breaking rather than outright fourth wall breaking.[/QUOTE]
How’s he using Stark as a villain or using him to prop up another character?

My bad. I should have read it instead of just browsing a few lines.

[QUOTE=Tony Stark;5207669]I hope he does what Matt asked him to in Daredevil. I can see we’re Cantwell is going with this and I like it, but completely understand if you don’t.[/QUOTE]
[COLOR="#000080"]I like what Cantwell is doing, I just don't think that Tony has some kind of martyr complex. I don't think anything major will come out of it either.
I like the variety of villains that he's bringing into the book too. :cool:[/COLOR]

I’m glad you’re enjoying the book so far. 2 issues in and I’m loving it.

I’m super excited to see what Cantwell’s planning for updating Tony’s older foes, as well as where he’s going with this Korvac story. Chapter one of the Books of Korvac sounds like it could be one of those big stories that’ll alter the firmament. Hopefully it’s not stretched into a crossover. I’ve had my fill of watered down events.

[COLOR="#000080"]Yes please. No crossovers or offshoot minis. Just keep it contained in one book.[/COLOR]

Agreed. I really want to see where this story with Korvac goes and how big it can be, but keep it in the book. Don't turn it into a big event that falls outside that perimeter.
