This review is from: Contest Of Champions II TPB (Marvel's Finest) (Paperback)

This is basically an Iron Man book.

The Heroes of the Marvel Universe have been basically kidnapped by aliens and brainwashed into fighting one another. Only Iron Man, due to his armor, is immune to their advances.

There are, of course, battles between the heroes. Most are disappointing.

Most of the plot relies heavily on Chris Claremont's earlier works in Marvel, namely the X-Men, so if you haven't read those, you might be lost. There are a couple of extra-dimensional guest stars, too, that are idiotic.

It's a flash in the pan, but if you like Iron Man, you might be interested.
