Iron Man: Requiem #1

In "Framing Sequence," a wounded Tony Stark—Playboy industrialist and weapons designer—finds himself captured by communist forces in Vietnam. Trapped and injured, he must play the part of a willing collaborator while secretly constructing a battle suit to keep his heart beating and his freedom alive. Written by Stan Lee and Larry Lieber, with art by Don Heck and colors by Stan Goldberg, this issue marks a pivotal moment in Iron Man's origin, rendered with the bold, grounded energy of its era. The cover by Sean Chen and Sandu Florea captures the intensity of Stark’s desperate gamble.
