Wong, H. Candelario, M. Pennington.
Tony
Stark and the Sons of Yinsen
are captives of IM's
very first enemy -- the evil warlord Wong Chu!
Pretty lame explanations as to how Chu survived all his past tribulations,
especially the fact that the Mandarin
had turned him into a beetle and squashed him flat. This, and what exactly is
the deal with why Chu is rotting on one side of his body -- and all those human
bones around him? In other matters, we find out that the other originator of the
IM armor, Professor
Yinsen, did not die at Wong Chu's hands
back in TOS #39! The rest of the ish is the S.O.Y.
and IM taking
apart Chu and his goons, and the revelation that Prof.
Yinsen's brain has been kept "alive"
all these years. Tony departs the S.O.Y. on good terms and after his leave we
see the S.O.Y.'s flying fortress approaching the island where Tony buried his
defeated "sentient" armor
mere issues ago!! Hooooo-boy! Lame art at the beginning, but Paul Ryan saves it
by doing the latter half of the ish.
