Original Sin #3.3/Hulk vs. Iron Man #3 (HERE BE SPOILERS!)

This series so far seems to just be repeating the same story again and again, as Tony tries (but fails) to prove that he wasn't responsible for the accident that created the Hulk.  We get another fairly unbelievable bit of technology meant to reconstruct the events of that night to break through Tony's alcoholic haze, and, this time, it not only proves Tony's guilt over creating the Hulk but also for some other crime that he committed against Bruce.  The only new twist this issue is that Arno implies that Bruce's use of the Extremis virus to merge his consciousness with the Hulk's body has some sort of side effect, but Hulk immobilizes him before he can reveal what it is.  I think that next issue is the last one, so all will, presumably, be revealed.  But, if Tony is as guilty as it appears, you do have to wonder how it could all possibly be resolved...at least without the Hulk smashing him to bits.

*** (three of five stars)
