Ho-Ho-Homicide!

There's nothing I don't like about this 1990 Iron Man cover:

You'd think Santa shooting some sort of laser gun at ol' Shellhead would be great enough, but then they top themselves with "Ho-Ho-Homicide!" at the bottom!

Excelsior indeed!

Here's a quick synopsis in case you're as confused as I was:

After undergoing a grueling, deadly elimination competition at the Taskmaster's Academy, the survivor is named the new Spymaster. In order to graduate, Spymaster must steal the top Christmas ornament at Tony Stark's party. In the attempt, Spymaster encounters and battles the Invincible Iron Man. In order to preserve personal safety of his guests and children present, and perhaps in the spirit of Christmas, Stark allows Spymaster to leave with the bauble.

Merry Christmas, Spymaster!

The boy loves superheroes! But most of the comic books out there are much too mature for his little eyes.

A while back Marvel started a more kid-friendly line of superheroes and villains, Superhero Squad, that he adores, and I very much appreciate.

So I Saw Iron Man 2

Quick review: pretty good, but no Spidey 2. Got to see drunk Tony, War Machine, and lots of hot robot on robot action.

Oh, and Thor’s hammer after the credits:

Thoughts on the Iron Man 2 Trailer

Casting Shandling? Awesome!

Ironman2-2.jpg

Why is she kissing the mask’s chin?

Love this entrance! (Dig the lit up dancing girls!)

OK, I dunno what’s going on here.

I want a vote on expletives for Jackson to say in this movie too.

Ironman2-6.jpg

Is this War Machine? Or some sort of robot?

Ironman2-7.jpg

I hope Rourke can pull of this villain without being too Moo-HA-HA-y.

Ironman2-8.jpg

Love seeing the two together here. But, again, in the background, guys or bots?

Hope this movie is as good as the last.

 

Saturday Morning Cartoon

This is so great!

Some more info:

IRON MAN takes on TITANIUM MAN in the classic 1966 Marvel comics cartoon. The feature is barely animated, but it uses panels from real Iron Man stories drawn by Gene Colon and Don Heck. Written by Stan the man Lee, it's the hi-tech Cold War smackdown of the century -- "Fight On, For A World Is Watching!"
