review 1: And now for something completely different. This volume contains four different stories collected together in one trade graphic novel. The first story is from an Iron Man annual edition and is about the Mandarin forcing an acclaimed movie director to make a propaganda film of his life. It was entertaining, but I was disappointed in the ending. The best story is Tony telling his tale at an AA meeting, but without revealing who he is and what he's talking about, though the great art shows us, the readers. Then there's a short interlude of how Howard Stark met his future wife Maria and stole her from Obadiah Stane. Lastly is a good story of Tony Stark talking with Peter Parker about a doomsday weapon that Stark designed before he lost his memory. The story is inner-cut with s... morecenes of a dystopian future where The Mandarin is Emperor of Earth and Stark's descendents must somehow defeat him and plunge humanity back into a new iron age. (get it?)
review 2: Yes, I agree with everyone, this was a let down compared to the previous work by these two, Fraction and Larrocca, ... but I was expecting something even worse after all my goodreads friends lowered my expectations so much, ...Yes the mandarin part was weak and it had weak artwork (especially compared to Larrocca) but some of the other stuff was awesome, ...So here's to hoping the next one picks up!:) less

The Mandarin story was alright, but the rest of this book was a mess. Disappointing.

Issue 500.1 is one of the best written single issue stories ever.
