Hi? Iron Man 500?

Umm.... So since there isn't really a Tony Stark community out there and I really really need some input on this. Help, guys?

I just read Invincible Iron Man #500 and apparently it's gone into reprint and everyone is really pleased with it. Umm, what did you think of it? Did you think he got Tony was right in what he would or would not do? Do you know anything about Fraction's future plans with Tony and what are your opinions about them?

Because I just read the issue, and... I can't get over it. I don't want to lead witness or whatever in the post so I'll put my opinions in the comments, but please, I really really need to get this off my chest. Thanks.

It doesn't actually seem that stupid to have comfort/goodbye sex with someone who was the road not taken for you. Sure, he wasn't entirely together. It wasn't clear just how out of it he was. Yes, I know Tony ~almost dies~ every damn week, but as far as she knew Tony was trying to kill himself.

And I'm pretty sure, that no matter what a loved one does, the correct response to them getting to live where you thought they were going to die, is to be really really happy. No matter what they do.

Actually it's also pretty normal to be angry, and upset, at the emotional turmoil. She's been under a hell of a lot of strain. I'm not saying her anger is completely justified; I'm saying her anger is understandable and doesn't make her a bad person.

Eh, I'm guessing the reactor and the suit are kind of symbolic of regaining her old life. Also, remember while it's been ages for us, it's been a much shorter time in-canon.

My impression is that within IIM, it's really only been about 3 months at most. I could be completely wrong, though. I think they mentioned they only had 6 weeks to design and build the Resilient car before the expo thing.

So basically, just like TV.
