The Outhouse - The Greatest Comic Book Forum

After co-writing last issue with Joshua Hale Fialkov, Nick Spencer rescues Will Pfeifer from whatever Amazons Attack Hell he was in and they combine for another strong comic book, I continue to enjoy seeing Rhodey use his new abilities, and the threat he’s facing is just so different from the norm that it’s very exciting. Ariel Olivetti’s art looked great too, I loved how there were blood stains on some pages to get across the violence, although at first I thought it was a printing error! It’s a shame this book is going to be cancelled because it’s been enjoyable, but I think maybe the Palmer Addley threat was a bit too esoteric to really catch on, people seem to prefer Iron Man to fight other giant robots rather than real technological threats.

Dropped like a hot rock once I saw Will Pfeiffers name on it.

I don't like, or buy, anything he's done, since he ruined Catwoman

What are Rhodey's new powers?

it is a slimmed down armor with no visible external weaponry such as shoulder miniguns or missile launchers. The armor's color scheme is gunmetal with black detailing and has two lines on the helmet's left eye area that glows according to the repulsor reactor's color. The armor utilizes upgraded technology such as an updated Chameleon Mode (previously a feature of the "Silver Centurion" Iron Man armor) for optical invisibility, holographic projection, and camouflage purposes. The armor also possesses Ghost technology to phase through solid objects, scanner invisibility to become undetectable to all targeting systems, and a Combat Mode that can deploy weaponry which is normally hidden and increase the size and bulk of the armor. But the armor has limitations such as strain of the armor's repulsor reactor, disorientation from the Chameleon Mode, and the inability to be both invisible and intangible at the same time due to a compatibility issue.

Unfortunatley with all those upgrades, it still lacks the ability to avoid cancelation.
