Iron Man #223

In "Counter Force!", Iron Man faces a moral crossroads when the reformed Force seeks redemption, only to be hunted by his former employer, Justin Hammer. With the new Blizzard, Backlash, and the Beetle forming a dangerous B-team, can Tony Stark’s ingenuity and armor hold the line? Written by David Michelinie and Bob Layton, with dynamic art by Mark D. Bright and inks by Layton, this 1987 issue delivers high-stakes action and a compelling twist on redemption. The cover by Bob Layton captures the tension perfectly.
