ABOUT

A feud of epic proportions is growing amongst the world’s super villains - and Iron Man is caught right in the middle of it!
A feud of epic proportions has been growing amongst the world’s super villains. The mysterious Black Lama is pitting villain against villain and the prize is ultimate power. It puts the Mandarin against the Yellow Claw, M.O.D.O.K. against the Mad Thinker and all of them against Iron Man! It’s a saga like only Marvel makes them — “The War of the Super-Villains!” This Epic Collection also boasts the towering threat of Ultimo and Iron Man’s return to Vietnam to rescue a friend behind enemy lines. Meanwhile, NYPD Detective Michael O’Brien begins an investigation aiming to nail Tony Stark for the death of his brother, the Guardsman. Add to that the Blood Brothers, the Controller and a new incarnation of the Molecule Man, and Iron Man must defend himself from all corners or he’ll lose everything!

STANDARD, PRIMARY, DM AND VARIANT COVERS

Standard and Primary covers are widely available through general retailers. They often have higher print runs and can be cheaper, especially during sales.

In contrast, Direct Market (DM) and variant covers are primarily sold in comic shops. DM editions tend to have more limited availability and may be more valuable to collectors.

The main differences lie in artwork style, availability, price, and collector appeal. Ultimately, the choice between standard and variant covers depends on personal preference, budget, and individual collecting goals.
