I'm really kind of at a loss to figure out just where Tony Stark, or Iron Man, are going to be able to go from here. Matt Fraction has diminished this character so much . . Tony has been going to each of his hidden bases, and is using repulsor generators to delete all the information that's locked in his noodle. Tony runs into the Crimson Dynamo in Russia, and after explaining himself, Dmitri has a good suggestion . . "Why not just jump into volcano? Entire brain vaporized in instant." Unfortunately, any allies he may have . . all of his friends have been dragged down right with him. Maria Hill helped him by retrieving a hard-drive that he was looking for. The problem was, the Controller has taken over the base, and Maria suffered some serious damage in the process. We still don't know if she's ok or not. Currently though . . she's hiding in New York City. Well, maybe hiding isn't the right word. It appears that she's trying to make contact with Natasha Romanova. Tony also gave Pepper a modified Iron Man suit. With the power source that he'd implanted in her chest, she can operate it almost as efficiently as he did. But it's only a defensive suit. HAMMER had her in custody for a little while, but Norman Osborn let her go. Now that she's figured out that Tony is in Russia . . she's going to lead them right to him. You'd think she'd be a little smarter than that. By the time she comes across Tony she's got 2 problems. First Madame Masque is already there and she's staring them down through the scope of her high-powered rifle. Secondly . . Tony has degraded so much that he doesn't even remember Pepper. I don't know how much lower this guy can go. I'm pretty sure he's scraping the bottom right now. So . . where does he go from here. Well . . only Matt and Salvador Larroca know. And they ain't tellin'. I really like this book. I'm left every issue wondering where we're going from here.
