Spencer Ackerman on Writing Iron Man

Is Tony Stark a comrade? Spencer Ackerman, award winning national security journalist and author of the book "Reign of Terror: How the 9/11 Era Destabilized America and Produced Trump”, brings his knowledge of geopolitics, corporate power, and deep Iron Man lore to writing the new Iron Man series. 

This podcast is for folks new to the character as well as long time fans. We open with an overview of why I loved this series and a discussion of Spencer’s inspirations before delving into spoilers of the first three outstanding issues.

We’ve got: 

• Busting anti-union thugs

• Boardroom Warfare

• Feats of engineering

• Survivor guilt 

And some amazing pulls for bad guys that will please Iron fans and X-Men fans alike.
