IRON MAN KING-SIZE SPECIAL #2 |
|
|
(Nov., 1971 -- all stories are
reprints) Cover
art: Sal
Buscema.
-Tales of
Suspense #81 -- "The Return of the Titanium Man!"
Script:
Stan Lee. Art: Gene Colan/Gary Michaels.
As Tony Stark prepares to spill his dual identity secret to Senator Byrd, Titanium
Man lands in our nation's capital, spoiling
for a rematch!
-Tales of
Suspense #82 -- "By Force of Arms!"
Script:
Stan Lee. Art: Gene Colan/ Frank Giacoia.
The battle continues (but does not conclude), ending with Pepper as T-Man's
hostage!
-Tales of
Suspense #91 -- "The Uncanny Challenge of the Crusher!"
Script:
Stan Lee. Art: Gene Colan/Frank Giacoia.
Yet
another Red Threat surfaces, this time washed up from a Cuba-esque island in
the form of the bruiser called the Crusher!
Weird ending leaves the Crusher
apparently buried alive! Notable as the issue that reveals Happy and Pepper's
off-screen marriage!
Overall, a
disappointing collection, as the concluding Titanium
Man story is not reprinted, but rather the
corny villainy of the Crusher.
Colan art boosts this one an extra half-repulsor.
xkot's Recommendation: 
1/2 repulsors!
