Memorable

It isn't often that you get a book like this...US War Machine almost has a slightly underground quality to it. It's definitely post modern and crude in its own way, but the black and white lines lends the book a stark, gritty edge (no pun intended). I came to the book not knowing the War Machine - but I knew the character Rhodey - still, that wasn't a detriment to appreciating the story at all. Initially, the black and white art put me off - but eventually, the story wins you through. Unique, violent but a overall, a nice piece of work. Would like to see more - if it's out there.

Worth a look at while keeping a few things in mind

What? Four stars? Is this guy crazy? Probably. But still, I think this is an interesting read, if you keep in mind that this is not, and does not have much a connection to, the 616 universe (main marvel universe). I agree that this is a more realistic view at Tony Stark and Rhodes. Yes, its gruesome, yes, there is nudity. However, its MAX and that's one of the reasons you are here reading about it! For the right price its a good book, and don't let the black and white pages turn you off (right away at least).
