Marvel, stop trying to make Greg Land happen. He's not going to happen.

Hurray, last issue of Greg Land!

Will a new creative team take over after this issue? So far this series has been terrible!

The series has been pretty bad, and I actually LIKE Land's art (I genuinely believe that the entire Marvel Zombie phenomenon never would have happened were it not for Land's work on Ultimate FF's Crossover storyarc -- he made comic book zombies cool again).

Also, what's with Marvel taking so many liberties with Iron Man's armor? It's like it doesn't even matter if it looks anything like him anymore, as long as it's red and yellow. Careful, Marvel. Iron Man is very hot thanks to Robert Downey Jr. and gaining new fans with every new movie -- this is not the best time to start straying too far from the brand. Repetition = Remembering.

The point of the armor was to look different. I believe it was issue 5 or 6 where Tony states he went with this design so there would be zero chance he would be reconized on his journey. that backfired obviously. but the reason for the look is valid. Also there is no indication that this armor is going to replace the black and gold armor he is currently wearing on earth

I actually have found these issues to be infinitely better than Fraction/Larocca since World's Most Wanted ended. And that was over three years ago... I guess I like issues where things actually happen. And no knock on Larocca because he's a good artist, but man I don't think Iron Man's helmet has ever looked any worse or inconsistent. Not to say I support how Land does his art, but if nothing else it's a breath of fresh air.
