Summary:  Overarching story dealing with Tony and JARVIS' (and the other AIs) relationship, and how it expands out to the rest of the Avengers over time.

Review: This story starts out with Bruce's entrance into JARVIS and Tony's inner sanctum, and a discussion of what it means to be/have/know about an AI that could theoretically change the entire world just by being discovered. From their the stories branch out to the issues of trust, being thought of as a monster, and what it means to be human. Issues shared by JARVIS, Bruce, and Tony. 

The series then takes a turn for the more dangerous with Silver Lining, which begins the next arc of the story. The one where the rest of the Avengers begin to learn about JARVIS and what he can do. This story has some really gruesome imagery, so do keep that in mind when preparing to read it.

After the events of Silver Lining, we begin to see JARVIS coming into his own, as he shows that while he supporting Tony is one of his prime directives, Tony only influence him so much. To take a few lines from one of the stories "This wasn't dealing with Stark. This was dealing with a fully independent being, allied to Stark. And, apparently, Banner. Which was ... a very different, and much more alarming, kettle of fish."  

This JARVIS is one of the most believable versions of his character I've read. Both alien in his way of thinking and human in his emotions. Definitely a series to read if your just getting into the Marvel Movie verse or if you want to get a better feel for Tony's robotic helper.
