House of M: Fantastic Four/Iron Man Paperback – January 1, 2006

Awesome book!

The house of M stories have all been consistently interesting. It is one of the best story arcs put out by Marvel in the last two decades. Unfortunately. I’ve always been a Marvel fan, but even I have to admit their quality has plummeted since Disney took over.

The Ironman storyline is so so. BUT, the Fantastic Four story line gets a BIG thumbs up. Wouldve really like for this story line to have been longer and more in depth. The Thing aspect needs rsolution to me.

This title was only OK. I have just started getting into comics in the last year or so and I've been playing catch up to get in on some of the more important story lines. This might be my least favorite, it is worth a read for keeping up with the Marvel universe. The House of M spin off titles I do not recommend at all they were pretty weak.

Good, but disappointing compared to other House of M stories.

Good stuff. exactly what I wanted as I am trying to get through and caught up in the series.

I really enjoyed Marvel's "House of M" event, so I picked up a few of the crossover trade paperbacks. This particular volume contained 3 issues of a Fantastic Four story, and 3 issues of an Iron Man story (both set in the "House of M" alternate reality). These stories had few redeeming qualities, and I wouldn't recommend them to anyone unless they were really invested in the "House of M" storyline.

Eh, okay... this wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either. This installation of the House of M series shoves two story arcs in one binding. The first is the Fantastic Four alternate universe that they must live in Wanda Maximoff's altered mindscape and the other is Iron Man's.Suffering a severe mental break that winds up altering the entire world, Wanda Maximoff has affected every mind on the planet to believe that they are living in a different reality without knowing they are in a different reality with the exception of tiny nuances that peep through. The Fantastic Four is now the Fearsome Four and their leader is not Dr. Reed, but rather Doctor Doom. He is at the mercy of Magneto, since he's not a mutant, and must take orders from the infamous House of M. Unfortunately, Doom doesn't really like this idea and with the three other members that are supposed to be The Fantastic Four, he plots to tear down Magneto's rule and usurp his place. Truly, the most felt for character in these additions is The Thing, or "It" as he is called in this alternate verse. Otherwise, the story is mediocre at best.Worse, though, is Iron Man. A human and not a mutant, he and others like him are gladitorial fighters for mutant amusement while also still living some semblance of their former lives. Although Tony Stark is still one of the most successful businessmen in the world, he is constantly under the scrutiny and the "disappointed" airs of his father, Howard. The story is, well... it's... bland. The art isn't even all that great, which is a shame.I make it sound like both of these installments aren't worth your time, but thankfully they are short. It doesn't overlap the second mental break that Wanda eventually succumbs to, but only the first where the House of M rules. Good to include in the collection, especially for the fancy binding spelling that it will create if you collect all the paperbacks, but otherwise not worth much of a revisit.

Great product good shipping

Dieses Tie-In zu "House of M" setzt Kenntnis des Hauptbandes "House of M" voraus, aber nicht die anderer Tie-Ins.Zwei Storybögen in einem Band, die recht unterschiedlich sind. Der erste, der sich um die Fantastischen 4 dreht, ist top: eine interessante Drehung der Charaktere. Super Charakterisierung, spannend und kurzweilig erzählt. Die Zeichnungen passen sich diesem hohen Niveau an.Der zweite Bogen ist weniger gut, vor allem die Zeichnungen sprechen mich hier nicht so sehr an, da sie fast ins mangahafte fallen. Aber auch hier wird eine Geschichte erzählt, die einen netten "Twist" weg von der altbekannten Marvel-Charakter-Historie bringt.Auch hier, insbesondere bei der FF-Geschichte, zeigt sich, dass die Tie-Ins zu House of M locker dessen Qualität erreichen, wenn nicht sogar übertreffen.
