...And it has my enormous Iron Man biography reprinted from the OHOTMU. I received a credit, but not a head's up. Buy it anyway.
I planned on buying this anyway for the Fraction/Kano framing sequence ( which was awesome as expected ), but it was good to see your Iron Man entry again; a laudable feat of research. You got Iron Manual writer Eliot R. Brown's help with this, right?
ReplyDeleteYes, Eliot contributed the full-page schematic of the Granov armor. He and I held a few conversations about the armor and he was rather bemused at some of the pseudo-science from the Ellis issues. He's an interesting creator to talk to, I recommend the recent Back Issue magazine interview with him.
