Iron man has the most underrated runs in Marvel,long before writers just made him RDJ
When reading O'Neil's pedantic and realistic portrayal of alcoholism in his superb run, I always knew it came from personal experience of the author, even before I read interviews with him where he said he himself was a recovering alcoholic. That's when the best superhero stories are made, from something the writer lived himself.
Great video, i’ve always felt that Denny o’Neil’s work at marvel was so underrated
Yeah, I've heard from a few people that he's a better editor than a writer. I'd have to disagree, I think he made plenty of great editorial decisions but I always look to this run as one of the single greatest changes made on a character. I don't know if it's on par with his Batman or Green Lantern/Green Arrow stuff but it's still pretty incredible.
Best work by Dennis O'Neil on Marvel.
Hard agree, this was one of the earliest comics I remember reading as a kid and it's left its mark on me since then.
This run not being collected in an omnibus is criminal. Denny's Iron Man doesn't get the love it deserves. In my opinion, Iron Man #200 is the single best issue of Iron Man ever written.
Amazing work covering one of the most iconic moments in Tony Stark’s history. I’m so jealous of your editing skills. Every frame has something interesting and dynamic going on.
Thanks, Diego! Coming from you that means a lot. I've gotta give a lot of the credit to McDonnell's art for the edit though, his layouts are incredible.
I remember reading this particular era of Iron Man when I was a lot younger. The stories were amazingly written, the artwork and penciling solid and on target. What I took away from this was big falls can happen to anyone, even very charming and brilliant technologists like Stark. He's after all human, and that means fallible. Same goes for Rhodey.
This run as well as the Camelot trilogy as the best 80s iron man stories as well.
I absolutely LOVE Doomquest as a story. The Michelinie/Layton/JRjr era had such a cool b-movie sci-fi tone to it and I'd love to cover that sometime in the future.
@@ForEveryKindofGeek yes do it as well as Christopher cantwell recent iron man run
@@ForEveryKindofGeekyes do it
Even though Demon in the Bottle is one my favorite stories, I really like Dennis O'neil arc with more realistic approach to the subject of addiction, showing Tony going through a self discovery journey and slowly come to accept his flaws and deal with them in order to become a better man. While Iron Man movie may be what made Tony such pop culture icon, his late 70s/80's stories were the first steps for Iron Man's evolution into one of Marvel best heroes.
I've never really been a fan of Iron Man, but man, this really makes me want to go and read this run! It's not every video that has the ability to make me want to go and read comics, so I see that as a testament to the quality of your fantastic work!
Thank you so much! This was one of the first lengthy runs I read for the character, and it really gave me an appreciation for everything that came after and built on it. Hope I did it justice!
Me: Okay Doug’s convinced me there are some good Iron Man comics out there. No way there are more.
*sees this video*
Me: Damn it! Doug’s a genius
Haha I'm telling you, if my videos get more people into this version of the character I'll be really happy.
This was interesting since I own some of the comics in this run but not all. So while I know most of the beats, there are stuff I didn't know like Rhody's arc. Neat.
Renewal or reforging if you will, has always been at the core of Tony's character. He wants to be better from who he was. I really don't like how Iron Man's writers have him just be RDJ now. That feels like who Tony was at the beginning of his arc: Arrogant and prideful.
Issue 182 was included at the end of the second volume of Superior Iron Man. Seeing Tony on the street broken and alone and saving that baby, I was immediately invested. I own two of the Iron Man by Denny O'Neil Epic Collections and you just reminded me I should get around to reading them. Thank you for the insight!
Amazing how such a small channel can produce such high quality videos, from the editing to the research to the narration and voice overs. Outstanding.
Thanks so much!
Phenomenal video, and such a wonderful look into this run. I hadn't heard of this run until a year ago and now I see I should have. It sounds amazing, and this video really makes me want to read this in Omnibus format.
I'd really recommend it. I think most of it is still available through the Iron Man Epic Collection, but I agree that an Omnibus of the entire run would be a welcome addition.
Writers back then had way more restraint and talent. Nowadays if a writer doesn't like a character is they ruin them and insert characters to belittle and strawman abuse them like the garbage that was Tom King's Batman run, Hellcat Ironman, and Ta-Nehisi Coates' Captain America.
(While writing it just realized the pattern in the character they target)
Only just found this channel! What a hidden gem! Excellent video and very professional editing. Doomquest is my personal favourite Iron Man story.
Out of all the Denny comics, there are 2 runs I want to read. Denny's run on the Question and his great run on Iron Man. The impact his run has on Iron Man is huge and I wish Marvel would collect this series in an omnibus already. It is just too good!
THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it
Denny O'Neil is one of the most underrated writer in comics this run ad well as his batman run ( which you should cover) his question run as well as his green lantern green arrow run( another run you should cover) are his masterworks
I just found your channel and I appreciate the fact you chose to tackle this run, as it’s one of my personal favorites! Lots of people have covered O’Neil’s groundbreaking work on Batman and Green Arrow, but very few mention his Marvel work, in particular this Iron Man run, which is incredibly strong and deserves more attention. (And proves my point that you don’t have to like a character but if you write them with integrity it shows in the work).
I don’t see a lot of people talking about Iron Man’s comic books history in general, which is a shame as I think he’s great for a whole lot of reasons! He is one if my favorite super heroes and definitely my favorite Marvel hero! 💛 You’ve earned yourself a new subscriber, my good sir ✨ Well done! 👍🏽 I’m looking forward to checking out more of your work in the future! (Your video on Hickman’s FF has caught my attention so I think I’ll watch that one next 😁)
The original "Born again"!
Really close but I think this might have come right after
Another stellar video, my friend! Always amazed at how well you are able to dissect the themes of the work you cover while leaving so much for us to discover as readers. Thanks for asking me to be apart of this, a pleasure as always buddy!
Wouldn't be half the video without you, my guy. And thanks so much!
Thank you for making a video about my second favorite Iron Man run and Rest In Peace Denny O’Niel thank you for making incredible stories we still remember to this day.
Please keep making these comic vids, they’re fucking awesome
Thanks! I'm planning for more variety next year but I've still got a lot of comics stuff in the works!
Happy we’re getting more marvel stuff out instead of just x-men. Would be cool to see Gwenpool or guardians of the galaxy on the future
Hot damn, man. You really know how to hone in on the elements that make a story special and effective. Such an amazing video and I hope you are as proud of yourself for making it so well as I am.
Absolutely loved this!
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it

Your channel is awesome and the fact that you don’t get views is a crime
I like your videos a lot man, I follow very little comic channels here on YT, so I'm glad I stumbled upon yours.
Great video man on Denny o Neal iron man run.
Thanks!
@@ForEveryKindofGeek your welcome ;)
Great video, algorithm got something right for once
Thanks so much, glad you liked it!
Love your videos.
Glad to hear it, thank you!
Awesome video!
Thanks so much!
I recentley read this run and I didn't realized Rhodey was addicted to the armour!
wow this is what im talking about please more Iron man and cap america thanku so much new sub
Thanks so much, glad to have you aboard!
@@ForEveryKindofGeek your welcome thanks for having me
Well I really wanted to read something by O'Neil and this sounds amazing, so I'll probably grab the epics now! My wallet hates you now FEKOG.
I feel your pain. I'd say you can't go wrong with these, though!
Subbed. Check out Michelinie and Layton's return on IM. Stark Wars, Kathy Dare, Gray Gargoyle. So good.
I’ve been looking to jump into a full run on Iron Man and thanks to this wonderful video I know where I want to start.
#IronManSweep
if he didn't think a hero should be a jerk, why did he ruin jim rhodes by bait and switching him from a hero into an unworthy, psychotic thug?
I find it incredibly strange that you can look at Rhodey’s mirroring of Tony’s experience and think that it makes him unworthy.
i find it incredibly strange that you can mark off mindless destruction and betrayal/attempted murder of a friend who gave him everything as "mirroring tony's experience".
@@plasticweapon I don’t have to mark off anything. O’Neil writes it out there in plain text. Both heroes lapse and have to build themselves back up. Tony’s lapse with alcoholism didnt diminish who he was, and neither does Rhodey’s psychological trauma.
@@ForEveryKindofGeek and his blaming it on rhodes being "a poor black kid from south philly" is insulting to black people.
@@plasticweapon so now that you've been proven wrong, you're insisting what you saw was O'Neil's intention? After four weeks, you're going to have to come up with something better than that.
Check his white privilege? I’m out… with a thumbs down to your woke-ness👎🏽
aw shucks, I don't see how I'm gonna make it in this business now
@@ForEveryKindofGeek we see how your gonna make it in this business, it is on the bended knee. I bet you think men can get pregnant now too. You’ve given yourself over to the leftist ideology that didn’t used to exist here. That’s how we know. That’s how you are seen.
Lol lmao
@@T.R.R.Jolkien I don’t know who I’m supposed to be bending the knee to, but I do every step of this from picking the project to interpreting and editing the essays. If that’s how I’m seen, then I know I’m doing my job. I’d rather be someone with genuine opinions that people might disagree with than someone who says anything for a quick buck.
@Nestor Munoz I actually really like what Cantwell’s run is doing for that reason. Tony’s had decades of stories since the O’Neil run so it’s great to see how far he’s fallen while showing how much more mature and nuanced he’s gotten. I think Iron Man’s character has always had a cyclical kind of progression and it looks like Cantwell’s writing a story that actively confronts that, sort of asking “what does it take to actually grow as a person?”
