James Rhodes is Iron Man!

War Machine classic vol.1 this breakout book let’s James Rhodes really shine a must have for any war machine fan.

A little better than I remembered but still it's just the average fluff that was abundant during the 90s glut. Benson and Kaminski write better when it's James Rhodes than they do Rhodes as War Machine. War Machine's dialogue is like any other third rate hero of the time. But it was cool to see the dark side of the character.

[Nick Holden]

A mildly fun but outdated series of stories about one of my favourite Avengers characters.

[Devero]

Purtroppo quando la Marvel decise di dedicare una testata personale a War Machine, armatura particolare di Iron-Man, guidata da James Rhodes, uno dei personaggi secondari MArvel più interessanti, a mio avviso, prede la pessima decisione di affidare i testi a Benson, scrittore senza idee chiare sul personaggio.
Fece poi di peggio facendola disegnare a Gabriel Gecko, ispirato ai peggiori fuoriusciti dell'Image, ovvero Rob Liefeld e Jim Valentino. Davvero, non si poteva fare meglio? Secondo me sì e di molto.
