Invincible Iron Man is currently the only title I'm reading involving Iron man. Haven't bothered with an event since Siege. I rather like the fact that contrary to the title he's NOT invincible in this series. He's not even the same guy you remember due the the consequences of Most Wanted. He even has Rand technology in him. He should be getting his ass handed to him physically and mentally IMO because of such limitations that I would hope one would suffer after recovering from being labotomized.

I love Iron man, and there's few things I enjoy more about my favorite characters than watching them suffer and struggle only to see them triumph later. "never pays off"? Story isn't finished yet. I thought the pay off of past arcs were great. Doc oc was filler much like the deathlok nation story was for uncanny X-Force. Stark belittled the hell out of Doc OC throughout those issues, and i thought Doc OC's motives were befitting of his character.

You definitely seem like you just want Iron Man to kick some ass already. Been there seen that. Sure he'll get back to it again. All other marvel universe stories aside with Tony in bleeding edge armor, I love the character direction that fraction has taken.
