"It's kind of amazing that I hadn't read this yet. I've read a good bit of Iron Man canon, and a lot of Iron Man in the 12413531251325 recent books he's been in, but for some reason I'd never gotten around to "Demon in a Bottle." Now that I've finally read it, I'm so glad I did. It's a bit heavy-handed, sure, and full of the flaws that all socially-conscious comic books of the 1970s had, but it's a solid story with surprisingly subtle characterization and a truly kickass female lead (where has Bethany Cabe gone in the comics?). I'd recommend this to anyone, with any level of Iron Man knowledge, particularly movie fans looking for a place to jump into the comics."
"Pretty good... I like the inner conflict spin. I'm thinking that flying around in a robot suit fighting crime and monsters would totally drive me to drink. So, I feel for Tony Stark. It was pretty bold that they let him really fall apart, I think."
"'70s-era Iron Man, in which, you know, it's hard out there for a man with a pimp haircut and 'stache like Tony's. He's got to deal with the Sub-Mariner, who looks like Mr. Spock in a Speedo but has way fewer social skills. And there are a bunch of lameass villains with lameass superpowers he has to dispatch. Plus, he has to address the problem of his alcoholism in a single issue that reads much like an Afterschool Special. Can you feel the excitement from here?
No, that's just me still cringing about Tony's hair. Egad!"
