Summary: Iron Man vs Dr.Doom; Nuff Said
Review: Collection of stories in this tradepaperback from the acclaimed David Michelinie/Bob Layton run writing IRON MAN, in which the Golden Avenger clashes with the metal madman from Laveria and end up going back in time and then to the future with King Arthur and the wizard Merlin. Great reading for Iron Man fans and one hopes they make an Iron Man film someday as the character could make an easy transistion from comics to film.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Past and Future!
Review: Hey -- if David Michelinie and Bob Layton are doing Iron Man, you can rarely go wrong! This TPB features IM and Doc Doom being transported to the past -- King Arthur's time -- and then to the future of the year 2093. (The original comics were Iron Man #149-150, and then #249-250.) The tales are wonderfully woven, script and art both.

You may also want to check out a Marvel "What If?" that detailed Iron Man's adventures if he was *stuck* in the King Arthur past.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Damn Good Work
Review: Stellar art, intrigueing plotting, and a story that isn't mired in too much continuity made for an excellent read. Both characters are handled extremely well. Perfect examples being the first story's use of Doom's obsession with his mother and the second's forcing of Iron man to reluctantly use magic.The book also made excellent use of playing two characters with many intrigueing parallels off one another.
The second story suffers slightly because it comes of as a slightly more light hearted sequel of the first, but the encounters between the Doom, Iron Man and their respective counterparts in the future more than make up for it.
