Iron Man Modern Era Epic Collection: Stark Disassembled

Description

One of the most beloved modern eras of Iron Man sees Tony Stark on the run and poised to lose everything - with an ending that must be seen to be believed!

He's outrun Norman Osborn and kept the database of superhuman secret identities safe and secure. But in doing so, Tony Stark has lost just about everything: his armor, his power — even his very mind. Now at his absolute lowest point, it will take Tony's last reservoir of will — and allies including Thor, Captain America, War Machine and Black Widow — to keep him from losing it all! But there's a competitor on the scene for Stark Resilient, Tony's new company — a mother/daughter team with a familiar name and their own armor called Detroit Steel! They've started a deadly game of international intrigue that will bring one of Iron Man's deadliest foes back into the fray, and Tony Stark will find out just what "resilient" really means!

About the Author

"How he got started in comics:In 1983, when Fraction was 7 years old and growing up in Kansas City, Mo., he became fascinated by the U.S. invasion of Grenada and created his own newspaper to explain the event. "I've always been story-driven, telling stories with pictures and words," he said.Education and first job:Fraction never graduated from college. He stopped half a semester short of an art degree at Kansas City Art Institute in Missouri in 1998 to take a job as a Web designer and managing editor of a magazine about Internet culture."My mother was not happy about that," he said.But that gig led Fraction and his co-workers to split off and launch MK12, a boutique graphic design and production firm in Kansas City that created the opening credits for the James Bond film "Quantum of Solace."Big break:While writing and directing live-action shoots at MK12, Fraction spent his spare time writing comics and pitching his books each year to publishers at Comic-Con. Two books sold: "The Last of the Independents," published in 2003 by AiT/Planet Lar, and "Casanova," published in 2006 by Image Comics.Fraction traveled extensively on commercial shoots. Then his wife got pregnant. So Fraction did what any rational man in his position would do -- he quit his job at MK12 to pursue his dream of becoming a full-time comic book writer.Say what?"It was terrifying," said Fraction, who now lives in Portland, Ore. "I was married. We had a house. We had a baby coming. And I just quit my job."Marvel hired Fraction in June 2006, thanks largely to the success of his other two comics. "I got very lucky," he half-joked. "If it hadn't worked out, I would have had to move back in with my parents.- 2009.Alex Pham. Los Angeles Times.
