Marvel.com has posted an interview with writer Greg Pak about “War Machine” #6, which hits comic book stores on May 27. Here’s an excerpt:

“A pretty big chunk of the Marvel Universe is probably willing to turn a blind eye to War Machine’s extreme, extralegal interventionism as long as he’s poking around overseas in places like Santo Marco and Aqiria,” Pak remarks. “But once War Machine picks a target on American soil, conflicts with the Marvel heroes who defend the country become inevitable.”
The new storyline will also feature the return of Rhodey’s mom, a character who Pak describes as “a tough, unsentimental, church-going lady who did her damnedest to raise her kids the right way in the mean streets of South Philly. But as we’ll learn, her son may have learned some of her lessons a little too well.”

Timothy Callahan has reviewed “War Machine” #5 for Comic Book Resources. Here’s an excerpt:

Manco is a fascinating choice for this type of comic, because he can pull off the sensitive character moments and the big, ultra-violent action sequences, but he covers it all with a layer of grit and grime that makes it all seem sad and painful. This is an issue which opens up with Ares, the god of war, raging with glowing red eyes and decapitations occurring left and right. That’s all on the opening page, by the way. And the comic escalates from there.
