Iron Man 2005 #16 - back issue - $3.00

Tony neglects his official duties as director of SHIELD as he and Maya perform an autopsy on a dead ecoterrorist with cybernetic enhancements who killed members of Team Alpha. Karim tracks down Tem Borjigin in a psychiatric facility in China and offers him the ten rings of the Mandarin as he believes Tem to be the villain in disguise. When Tem refuses to respond and is threatened with a gun, he easily dispatches Karim and his men. Dugan gives Tony a lecture about the responsibility of a soldier who has men under his command.
