Review of

Marvel Secret Wars 1872 number 3, Duggan et. al. 


Five out of five stars

 When I spotted this comic in the local used bookstore, the cover snapped my eye to attention. It contains what looks like an amalgam of Iron Man and an old steam locomotive as well as a man brandishing a sixgun and another wearing the standard clothing associated with the American west.

At first it appears to be a fairly standard western story where the oppressed are going up against the greedy and wealthy barons that are building a dam on the river. However, characters known for being in other times and place are present. They are Tony Stark, Steve Rogers and Dr. Banner. It is an interesting twist on a well worn western story and this comic is the third in the series, so if you have not read the first two, some aspects of the plot are confusing.

 However, I enjoyed it so much that immediately after finishing, I began ordering the other comics in this series.
