EPISODE REVIEWS
Taking away Tony's core life-support reactor adds a great layer of survival tension. It forces him to rely entirely on raw engineering and improvisational tactics rather than a shiny suit. The dialogue exchange about weapon mass-production is peak Warren Ellis cynicism.
You know it's Chatterbox's stunt double when he doesn't have a speaking role. The resourcefulness of Tony in this episode is on full display. Our photographer's skills would make Peter Parker proud. Pepper Potts must be regretting letting Tony out of her sight. I believe the event in this episode foreshadowed important information that will be integral to the plot.
Another rather slow episode, especially at the start. However, it becomes more and more action-packed toward the end. Not much to say about this one, but there's really nothing to complain about either.
