Kieron Gillen has started off writing an enjoyable Iron Man series. Not that I had any doubts. Gillen brings back Extremis as a weapon being sold to the highest bidder to create super soldiers of their own. Gillen writes Tony Stark with a great sense of humor, without being overbearingly snarky.
As stated in interviews, he has begun to explore Tony's beliefs and expose Tony to some ideas that he might find uncomfortable. I'm not sure where this book is headed yet, but I am sure I will be along for the ride.
Iron Man may be the perfect book for Greg Land. I don't have a ton of respect for Land's "work" but with Iron Man, at least the characters should look a little posed, and have that porn star look Land is known for. Luckily Iron Man has no facial features when in the armor, so hopefully we will see him in armor most of the time, instead of a phototraced celebrity.
