This 1997 Marvel volume's fifth issue presents a striking, moody cover penciled by Whilce Portacio — Tony Stark crouches in a darkened space, suit rumpled and head bowed in apparent exhaustion or anguish, while two massive armored forms loom on either side of him like silent sentinels. The contrast between the vulnerable, unarmored man and the imposing metal figures flanking him sets a compelling tone for "Inherit the Whirlwind." With Lobdell and Lee on script and Ryan Benjamin handling interior art, this Heroes Reborn era installment looks to dig into the weight behind the Iron Man legacy.
