The centerpiece of Marvel's 70th anniversary celebration turns a deadly

Super-Soldier Experiment... and while the Torch learns what it means to
be both human and a hero, Prince Namor arrives in New York looking for
nothing more than vengeance! Things really heat up this issue as
award-winning creators Ed Brubaker and Steve Epting bring you the
definitive in-continuity origin of Marvel!

IRON MAN: IRON PROTOCOLS
Written by ROBERT VENDITTI
Art by NELSON
Cover by ARIEL OLIVETTI
Deep within a secret government base beneath the arctic tundra lies the
“Ark”: a vault containing the genetic codes for all life on Earth. But
there’s a problem—a rogue Artificial Intelligence has decided that the
best way to protect the samples is to eradicate every living creature!
Only Iron Man has the knowledge to stop the machine—and he’s only got
an hour to do it! Join Robert Venditti—creator of The Surragates, now a
major motion picture—and fan-favorite artist Nelson (X-FACTOR) as the
fate of the world hangs in the balance!

DEADPOOL #900
Written by JASON AARON, MIKE BENSON, CHARLIE HUSTON, JOE KELLY, DUANE SWIERCZYNSKI & FRED VAN LENTE
Penciled by KYLE BAKER, SHAWN CRYSTAL, SANFORD GREEEN, ROB LIEFELD, CHRIS STAGGS & DALIBOR TALIJIC
Cover by DAVE JOHNSON
Special SUPER-sized, ACTION-packed 104-page special to commemorate
Deadpool’s historic 900th issue! ... Wait, has it really been
nine-hundred issues...? Who cares! If this collection of octane-infused
stories by some of comics’ hottest talent doesn’t make you want to
genuflect at the Altar of Wade, nothing will. Thrill as the Merc with a
Mouth squares off against probe-happy aliens, trigger-happy mimes and
one seriously unhappy fanman – and that’s just half the book! Wince as
Wade bares his soul (and lots more) to a shrink who’s got major
squirrels in his own attic. Thrill as he travels around the globe and
then some to settle a childhood bet. And chill as C.S.I. investigators
at a blood-splattered crime scene attempt to piece together why this
particular “unsub” needed battery cables, Crisco oil, three stacks of
adult magazines and a live chicken to pull off the hit.
