Iron Man 2: Fist of Iron #1 Synopsis by Julio Molina-Muscara

*** An Iron Man 2 movie tie-in ***

Tony Stark is in Germany to meet with executives from Gorani Insurance, a company that backs most of Stark's foreign factories, to discuss the new rates. Pepper Potts is worried that Tony will arrive late... which he does. But in the interim, he helps a beautiful woman who was stranded in the road with a flat tire (she was vice president in the insurance company), and helps police capture a group of thieves who recently stole valuable paintings from a museum (insured by Gorani Insurance). Because of his good deeds, the owner of the insurance company assures Tony that the new rates will be quite pleasing.

Iron Man 2: Fist of Iron #1 Review by Julio Molina-Muscara (May 7, 2010)

A fun short comic (only 12 pages); I wonder why it was drawn by 2 different pencilers. This comic is a clear Audi advertisement: Tony drives his white Audi Spider-8 sports car, and mentions that it takes 19 seconds to open the roof. Iron Man does not appear in this issue, however Tony does wear an Iron Man forearm and hand to shoot and defeat the thieves. His playboy manners toward the vice president woman are obvious and fun to read.
