Iron Man

During its 12-issue run from 1998 to 1999, Panini France’s Iron Man series brought together a powerhouse creative team—including writers Jeph Loeb, Jim Lee, and Scott Lobdell, with art from Whilce Portacio, Terry Shoemaker, and Ian Churchill—to deliver a compact, high-energy take on the armored Avenger. This French-published series stands out as a unique international imprint of the character, offering a self-contained story arc that captures the era’s bold, dynamic style without the sprawling continuity of the main Marvel line. A fascinating artifact for collectors and fans of late-90s superhero comics, it showcases top-tier talent in a focused, standalone adventure.
