Re: Hey, help a sister out

I'd almost like to see him break, honestly, because the tension he's ratcheted himself up to is horrible. But the only person he could rely on to put him back together is dead, so... I heard that. I remember reading Tony Stark's speech in World War Hulk and started to weep for him. It's when he says to the Sentry that sometimes you have to play God when there's millions and billions of lives depending on your choice... and not choosing is still a choice. Not many men can do it... blah blah blah. Man, that's just... man.

I've thought of doing a proper epic on Tony Stark from 2000 up to Civil War, but when I did the outline, it was looking at 100k words. Oh heck.

Those panels are from Civil War: Frontline #11

Crap. I read the frontline torrents, I only have the first trade... so I guess it will be in the second. I guess I'll get it... eventually.

Hey, I'd never noticed that about the asking for help thing. That's...dreadful, in a poetic way.

That's the thing that first jumped out at me, when everyone was all, "Tony Stark is a fascist and a dick!" and I'm like, "Dudes, he was crying to Cap for help. He didn't want to do this. Three times he asked Steve, three times he was denied. All you needed was a rooster to crow! Cotdamn."

Ugh. There is none so blind...
