“Whipsaw!”

In "Whipsaw!", Tony Stark faces a high-stakes mission when he agrees to rescue MODAM from Omega Red—after returning stolen nuclear material to his own company. Just as he’s about to step into the field, his team throws him a surprise party, adding a personal touch to an already tense situation. Written by Len Kaminski and brought to life by Kevin Hopgood’s art, with inks by Steve Mitchell and colors by Ariane, this 1993 issue captures Iron Man at a pivotal moment—balancing duty, legacy, and the unexpected warmth of a moment meant for celebration. Cover by Kevin Hopgood and Steve Mitchell.
