The Sinister Scarecrow
This month we see Iron Man battle it out with Scarecrow, a performer who decides he's had enough of pandering to his audience and decides instead to use his talents to become a really good burglar. This is fine, except, his reasoning for choosing the guise of a scarecrow is a little beyond me. There's some justification in amongst it all that links the performer's nimbleness to that of a scarecrows? But that makes as much as sense as a flying shark. So what we're left with is something of a half-baked villain story and some side-story that repeats the same old jokes we've read in behalf of Pepper and Happy a few times before. It's nothing too offensive, but it's not exactly one to remember either.
