Ecocomic Recession Watch: Ultimate Armor Wars Edition

Ultimate Armor Wars #1 by Warren Ellis and Steve Kurth (2009)

Let it be known that you can always count on comic books to show you just how much worse life can get. While real-Earth is suffering from a global recession, the Ultimate Marvel Earth is dealing with the after effects of a large-scale attack by Magneto causing the complete destruction of Manhattan and the death of millions of people in addition to an economic collapse. I kid you not, things are so bad that Tony Stark is down to his last hundred million dollars. Stark Industries is all but gone. What ever is Tony going to do for money in this dark and dreadful age?

The answer may shock you...

That's right. The situation is so dire that Tony Stark has resorted to podcasting his thoughts (which in this book are mostly amusing drunken ramblings) in order to make a little extra cash.

It's actually pretty brilliant. I'd pay for them all.

  1. I think a reality dating show called "Iron Heart" would net him a ton of cash. Women could compete to find the heart beneath the man beneath the iron.
