WAR MACHINE ON THE ALIEN WAR PATH

Wednesday, September 17, 2008 - Tom

IRON MAN: DIRECTOR OF SHIELD #33

IRON MAN: DIRECTOR OF SHIELD #33 - MARVEL COMICS

A must read Secret Invasion tie-in and a new path, as the lime-light shifts from Iron Man to War Machine. Christos Gage (Thunderbolts) and one of my favourite artist Sean Chen take over as Iron Man: Director Of Shield becomes War Machine: Weapon of Shield with issue #33. 


The Skrulls have stricken Iron Man with an alien virus that renders his armor and technology useless! But Tony Stark plans for every possibility...so it’s time to say hello to Tony's not-so-little friend—War Machine, weapon of s.h.i.e.l.d.! But can one man, even one as well-armed as James Rhodes, stand alone against a worldwide invasion? A major new chapter in both Tony and Rhodey's history begins here!

Other comics out this week


The man with the "power of a million exploding suns!" can be seen in Age of Sentry, a six part mini series that contains two silver-age tales - the first  we see how Robert Reynolds becomes the Sentry and the other we see the Mad Thinker teaming up with the Tinkerer to create a device that is capable of stealing the Sentry's powers. Story by Jeff Parker and Paul Tobin, penciled by Nick Dragotta and Ramon Rosanas.


DCU: Decisions # 1 (of 4) - Election season is arising in the states and the stakes have never been higher! An unknown villain is attempting to assassinate the presidential candidates and only the heroes of the DCU stand in the way. As Green Lantern, Green Arrow, Superman, Batman and more try to learn the killer's identity, they are faced with the difficult task of reconciling their own personal ideals with the mission at hand. Written by Judd Winick (Green Arrow & Black Canary) and Bill Willingham (Fables) ; Pencil art by Rick Leonardi; Covers by Stephane Roux.


From bi-monthly, Astounding Wolf-Man goes monthly with issue #8. Here begins a new story arc, as Gary deals with finding out who was responsible for destroying his home life. Also we see Gary become The Elder of the Were-wolves. This issue picks up right after Astounding Wolf-Man Vol. 1 left off. Highly recommended! From the creator that brought you Walking Dead and Invincible; Robert Kirkman with artist Jason Howard.


Trade of the week - Abyss Vol. #1


What if you found out your father was ABYSS, the world's worst super-villain? Eric Hoffman inherited more than a billionaire fortune... he also got a killer robot, a plot to destroy San Francisco and an infamous legacy to live down. Join the dysfunctional comedy adventure from the warped mind of Kevin Rubio, creator of parody film web phenomenon "TROOPS" and the creative team behind comedy smash Star Wars: Tag and Bink.
