Iron Man (1968) #60
#normally when these comics get into politics it’s awkward and falls flat for me#I think partially because I’m not the expected target audience with regards to age#and partially because I’m not living and reading these comics in the era that they were created in#I didn’t have particularly high hopes for this storyline in that regard#considering how a few issues ago Tony was fighting against#how the Mandarin tricked a bunch of Tony’s employees into believing that he was a communist#and so protesting against him and going on strike and trying to join a union secretly run by the Mandarin#and Tony was talking about how he needed to stop the strike before it destroyed his company#and even the depiction of the pacifist versus violent radical conflict last issue was awkward#but I actually surprisingly really like this#obviously Tony’s reaction when he’s called out for creating weapons that killed a lot of people leaves a lot to be desired#but I actually like it#he’s being pressured on both his use of violence as Iron Man and the ramifications of his work at Stark Industries#which is more convincing than if they were just doing the Stark Industry stuff and not acknowledging Iron Man’s violence#and Tony not handling it perfectly isn’t story breaking for me because I don’t expect him to be a perfect person#and am just interested in him being an interesting character#marvel#tony stark#my posts#comic panels
