There were some REALLY enjoyable moments throughout the volume, but it felt very disjointed and incredibly weak for the end of a run. I get it's all set up for the Civil War 2 event and the new Iron Man series, but I wish the volume felt a little more coherent and conclusive. This run started strong, so it's a little disappointing to see it end kind of flat.

Particular story twist that's so Bendis: finding out that Tony has another set of parents.
Particular aspect that makes it unsatisfying: It's not clear how it was heavily part of the Civil War II storyline.

I appreciate the interactions between Tony and Carol in this, as well as the flashbacks to Tony's love for Rhodey. I'm still mightily disappointed in the outcome of Tony and Amara's relationship, though. They could have done so, so much with their story and what it could mean for Tony's character. But I believe the whole event plot for Civil War II took over and all the wonderful groundwork set up in the first 5 issues kind of lost their way in the final tally, unfortunately. *tries not to get mad about Amara*

Trataré de ser lo mas objetiva que pueda con la reseña de Invincible Iron Man Vol #3
De entrada diré que toda la trama de Civil War II no fue de mis favoritas, pero agradecí mucho que este numero tuviera una platica entre Tony y Carol fuera de una reunión de Alcohólicos Anónimos (ha sido una de las mejores que he visto desde que comenzó todo este evento); ese puro encuentro hace que la calificación de este cómic no se desplome a una estrella.
Mi verdadera queja es esta: Esta compilación reúne 5 ejemplares pero en vez de mostrar el desenlace de los eventos en este misma compilación, Marvel solo agrega 3 ejemplares de Civil War II y agrega 2 ejemplares de Mighty Avengers del 2007.
No me malentiendan, esa historia de Mighty Avengers de hace 12 años fue divertida (mas que la parte de Civil War II, siendo franca) pero no debía estar aquí. Fue una maniobra para poder vender un Invincible Iron Man 4 posteriormente, pero a costa de que los fans que compramos esta edición nos sintamos un tanto estafados.
2.5/5 estrellas

Well, here it is. The final book in my huge project to read the entire Civil War II in trade paperback form.
And – what a surprise! – it was a huge disappointment.
It’s a disappointment mostly because Invincible Iron Man: Civil War II feels like a ripoff. I thought I was going to get explanations, a bit of a wrap-up for Tony, and a natural mantle hand-off from him to Riri (the new Iron Man). Instead, this book only has three modern issues. The other three included issues are TEN YEARS OLD. Can you imagine spending $25 on this book, only to get no resolution and only three modern comics?
Once again, I’m left asking myself – am I not supposed to read this event? Because I am a “patient reader” – I get my comics in trade form and from the library – am I not supposed to be able to read or enjoy events? That’s a tough sell when Marvel has been spending more and more of their time forcing their characters to tie-in with events. Do I just need to spend six months of the year not reading and enjoying Marvel comics, because those are the times they’ll be incomprehensible without reading all of the tie-ins in the prescribed order?
(And about that – the whole point of this Civil War II project of mine is that I did read all of the tie-ins. And…they still don’t make sense.)
Also, I appreciate that the artwork in this book is stylized, but for me it’s so muddy it just makes the story hard to understand.
For me, the final panel is just a perfect finale for the entire Civil War II project Marvel has put on: it’s a cliffhanger. A cliffhanger you can only read the resolution of if you buy the tie-in books. ಠ_ಠ

The book that launched a thousand Cap/Iron Man shippers.

And here this permutation / arc endeth; of course, because of the interference of the crossover, this doesn't work - there is no coherent ending, and there's no payoff on the Doom/Tony thing, at least not here. The AA Carol/Tony interaction is sweet and honest and inspired, but that's really the only high point here. Everything else is in service to Civil War II or laying the ground for Ironheart.

Great addition to the story. I really feel for Iron Man. Still siding with Captain America though. I do see his point. Art was great. Story was even better.
