• THE SCOOP: If this series hadn't been rebooted, this would have
been the 400th issue - so we're celebrating with a special double-sized
issue!
• THE STORY: At last, Tony Stark and the man called Temujin meet
face-to-face, as the web weaved by destiny draws them into an inevitable
conflict which can only end one way! And end it does -- with a status
quo-altering decision by Iron Man, in a second story both written and
illustrated by Mike Grell! Plus a special 400th issue gallery featuring pieces
by George Tuska, Sean Chen and Bob Layton! All this, and a cover by manga legend
Kia Asamiya!
• THE BUZZ: "In many ways, this seems like a Marvel Knights relaunch.
Even though the old numbering continues and the series carries the standard
Marvel logo, the moral complexities of the story introduce elements more
commonly found in the MK line. Artist Michael Ryan adds a sleek, sophisticated
look to the book; his fluid linework and detailed design seem perfectly suited
for Iron Man, as he is perfectly skilled with the technological and the human
sides of the story." -Comic Shop News
• THE FORMAT: 54 pages, with ads.
