Penciled by DON HECK
Cover by DON HECK
Marvel’s Man of Metal makes his triumphant return to the Masterworks! Yes, it’s time to fess up and Face Front, True Believers: After a thirteen-year vacation, the iron-clad Avenger’s back with his sophomore effort at long last. But it’s guaranteed to be one harrowing homecoming!
This tome’s classic tales pit Tony Stark against a virtual who’s who of adversaries in the mighty Marvel manner that could only be brought to you by Stan Lee and the lavish pen of "Dashing" Don Heck! There’s the return of Iron Man’s arch-nemesis, the Mandarin, and said vile villain’s origin, followed up by the first appearance of the long-loved Avenger, Hawkeye -- but he’s not playing on the side of angels here. No, he’s teamed-up with the Black Widow against ol’ Iron Boots! And finally, Iron Man must test his mettle against no less than Captain America and his own Iron Man armor as the new Iron Man fights the old! It’s a slam-bang barrage of Marvel classics with drama galore and a little ’60s Russkie "Red Scare" that can’t be beat. Reserve your copy today! Collecting TALES OF SUSPENSE #51-65.
