• War Machine: Weapon of S.H.I.E.L.D. Part 1 · 22 pages

  As Tony Stark is taken out of action in the Savage Land, he contacts James Rhodes and asks him to take on the Skrull invaders as War Machine. Rhody contacts Suzi Endo and learns that his War Machine armor is immune to the corruption of StarkTech that has taken place all over the world and he may be humanity's last stand against the Secret Invasion. Rhody links up with a space satellite to transform into a giant robot to fight the Skrull fleet.

Publisher’s description

The Skrulls have stricken Iron Man with an alien virus that renders his armor and technology useless! But Tony Stark plans for every possibility...so it's time to say hello to Tony's not-so-little friend--War Machine, weapon of s.h.i.e.l.d.! But can one man, even one as well-armed as James Rhodes, stand alone against a worldwide invasion? A major new chapter in both Tony and Rhodey's history begins here!
