    Default Iron Man #27 *Spoilers*

    Iron Man #27, "Rings of the Mandarin" Part 5, by Kieron Gillen, Cliff Richards, and Joe Bennett. Out today.

    In this issue, Tony, Arno, Abigail, and Shevaun take on the Mandarin Ring team, invading their subterranean fortress and using a combination of magic and alien tech to hack their rings.

    Honestly, this felt kind of rushed. I've been enjoying the Mandarin Ring storyline, but it kind of feels like Gillen is compressing a bigger storyline in time to get it done before the Original Sin tie-in hits. On top of the general speed of the plot and the pair of artists, there are a few errors. Exotherm is mistakenly identified Exile in one panel. Eiffel saying something that sounds like it was supposed to come from Sixty. That kind of little thing. Still, there's a lot of fun stuff in here. Arno wearing a city-sized battlesuit. Abigail with a new fire-based armor (also, her reaction to Eiffel and her razzing Tony about his thing for redheads). The reveal of The Liar's identity.

    Anyone else pick this up?

    I'd already guessed the Liar's identity but it was still a nice surprise.
    Abigail's new suit is fun

    I wonder who will get the rings at the end of this arc.
