Tony Stark’s demo car running on repulsor technology has been hacked and hundreds of drones are ready to destroy it. Tony’s team cannot stop the trial run of the car from starting and they can’t tell Iron Man just yet for fear of having their communications intercepted.

There’s a lot of tension this issue but not much else. This story continues to build the Iron Man storyline about Tony Stark rebuilding his empire. It’s a long story that I hope will be completed soon. I don’t have any real complaints, but readers have to understand that it’s probably a better read as part of a compiled story instead of a one shot. Stories like these can suffer when read “out of context.” I wish the series would feature shorter stories and one shots once in a while. So far since this story has started, there’s only been two real storylines. I’d like to see newer things.

Visually, the issue is good. Larroca does racing track stories well too. The cover is weaker not because of the artwork but because the composition and the monotone colours fail to draw attention on the flying Iron Man.
