Iron Patriot #1

ryonslaught's Iron Patriot #1 - Unbreakable, Part I review

Dull and boring

The Good

Family- I enjoyed the moments between James, his father and his niece.

Black Hero- James Rhodes is back in the saddle but this time as the Iron Patriot.

New Mission- James is no longer on kill missions but is now a symbol of American peace. That’s cool I guess.

Opening- The best part of the entire issue was the foreshadowing that James Rhodes will have a close to death situation involving an enemy in a power suit. It set a dark and somber mood in the first few pages.

The Bad

Cover- Not feeling it on any level, if my supplier hadn’t suggested I try this book the cover alone would have sent me to the hills and away from this issue.

Art- Biggest problem has to be how young James Rhodes appeared throughout the issue. I don’t get this recent trend at marvel. First it was New Warriors 2014 and now Iron Patriot.

Boring- While the opening was great everything else was just plain dull and lifeless on every possible level.

The Ugly

I was eager to read this issue since its release had received no fan fare whatsoever and I was curious why. Having read the entire thing I must say it’s terribly dull on every possible level. Will I stick around? Hard to tell at this point, if things don’t pick up in the next four or five issues and in a major way I won’t be sticking around. This issue gets 2/5 stars

Iron Man and War Machine, now he down dons a new Red, White, and Blue suit as the Iron Patriot. I give the writers two thumbs up on my Hero's new series; I hope it's long than his previous series. Once and again, Rhodey will prove himself to others as a hero of military background but also to a Superhero level. I believed in War Machine, now I'm going to believe in Iron Patriot. I have hope that this series will be interesting. I hope that we see more of the characters develop out more into thi...

James Rhodes is certainly my preferred choice when mulling over the two heroes covered in armor suits in the Marvel line-up. Yet, we hardly get to see him beyond the occasional series that doesn't last long. And, sadly, this series doesn't live up to the hopes I believe many had for it.This book focuses on two major components of James' life; patriotism and family. Starting with the latter, we see a lot of interaction between him and his father and niece, presented as primary players in this nar...
