All-New, Overworked Avengers #59 – ‘I Want It That Way’

Posted on August 17, 2022September 19, 2023 by phil.wrede
War Machine, Domino, the Falcon, the Black Widow, Rage, and Thor stand on the landing platform at the rooftop of Avengers Tower, looking up into the sky. The title of the comic strip, “All-New, Overworked Avengers Presents… ‘I Want It That Way’,” is visible at the top of the image.
The Avengers discuss their plans for the future, once Stark has retaken control of the organization.
Iron Man lands on the pad, across from the waiting Avengers.
Iron Man deactivates his armor, revealing Tony Stark beneath it, and is greeted by his fellow heroes.
Stark breezily reassures Domino and War Machine that everything with the organization will be all right, and soon.
War Machine tries to make Tony understand things from his point of view, but Stark retreats to a line about his association with the Avengers and increased public trust.
Domino tells Tony that she doesn’t want to just go back to how things were, but rather, make improvements and progress!
Tony blows past all the waiting Avengers on his way to his meeting in the tower.
Inside the building, Tony Stark is a little surprised to be greeted by the royal family of Wakanda: King T’Chaka, the princess Shuri, and the prince T’Challa. With them is She-Hulk.

It’s been a while since Iron Man proper last showed up in the Phil Wrede Marvel Action Figure Comic Universe – just about 14 months, in fact! Tony Stark took a real vacation, at least from super-heroics, even though he’s made some appearances via StarkComm video meetings.

Ever the showman, Stark’s making his grand return to Avengers Tower in his armor (and hopefully, for his sake, he switched off his armor out of the view of any inquisitive cameras – Iron Man’s secret identity is supposed to be, you know, secret). He clearly has a plan to regain some of the trust the public has apparently lost in the Avengers, even though he’s not shared the particulars of it with any of his former (soon-to-be-future?) teammates. When Tony Stark has a plan, sometimes the best anyone can do is dive out of his way!

It’s nice of Domino to show up to greet Tony, even though she’s technically resigned as an Avenger (again), isn’t it? It’s like something a real politician would do.

Welcome to PizzaRat dot Net, where I (Phil Wrede) post my toy comics!

The Idea

Comics, but with photos, instead of drawings.

The Process

Using stock photos as backgrounds, and digitally pasting photos of action figures over them. Graphic design software enables the lettering.

The Point

To make comics, to share stories, and to retroactively justify all the money I've spent on action figures over the years.
