"Crash" marks a pivotal moment in Iron Man’s post-Armor Wars journey, as Tony Stark strives to prove the new Iron Man suit isn’t another weapon of mass destruction. With Ant-Man stepping in to thwart a sabotage plot orchestrated by Edwin Cord, the stakes are high for both Stark’s reputation and the future of his technology. Written by David Michelinie and Bob Layton, with art by Jackson Guice and Bob Layton, and a cover by Bob Layton, this issue captures the tension and uncertainty of a hero trying to rebuild trust in a world that fears his power.
