iron man – Captain Neverever

I just informed @armsplutonic that I would not be getting this for her for Christmas or her birthday.

Captain America: Civil War Iron Man Life-Size Foam Statue

It’s only $1149.99 so it’s a steal, even it’s coming out in April.

(Can be found here if you want to know the gory details.)

Who is Tony in Avengers Assemble Planet Doom?

In Planet Doom, the heroes are a mash-up of villains and in ult universe costumes. So my question is: who was Tony mashed-up with?

Tony is Dr. Stark, member of the Brain Trust. And he’s looks like this:

Yeah, that’s Bruce (Scientist Supreme get up)

Other avengers looks like this:

I’ve been racking my brain to figure out Tony. Any suggestions?

Today in obscure Marvel cartoons, I present – Shell Games from the Fantastic Four World’s Greatest Heroes.

Tony says hi!

Shell Games is episode 22, season 1 – you can find it on youtube. The cartoon came out in 2006 – it’s standard definition and there were interesting coloring choices.

The cartoon is also before MCU so we get a very 616 Tony here – black hair, blue eyes, tall, sarcastic but not quippy, cares about his employees at Stark Enterprises, and all that. It’s pre-Avengers. And there’s an interesting plot point that Iron Man is known to be Tony’s bodyguard.

I bet this happens so many times during Stark Enterprises Board Meetings that it’s an agenda item (1 pm – Attack by supervillain or ally; 1:30 – R&D reports; 2:30 Break and medical check)

The episode is standard in that the Fantastic Four are attacked by Iron Man armors commanded by Dr. Doom. They need Tony’s help; Tony wants to retrieve his armor alone; they have to team up and beat Dr. Doom and Tony sees that working with a team is good thing. Hooray. Featuring: Johnny saying that Tony is coward for running away in a fight (to get the Iron Man armor), a really terrific Dr. Doom, and Herbie going on strike.

Does this have armor porn? Of course!

(They show All The Armors and an empty armory too!)

Reed of course finds out that Tony is in fact Iron Man because he’s Reed and it actually makes sense.

Most of the back half of the episode is FF and Tony fighting and beating Dr. Doom in front of his gothic Latverian castle/skyscraper.

Since it’s pre-MCU, we don’t get the HDU display and we have this eye-burning confusion with Tony trying to control the armor.

It all ends well and Tony goes off to continue being Iron Man and Reed goes off to work on Herbie.

Here, have a happy Tony in the Iron Man armor, since Tony is the rockstar of this episode!

sheronm replied to your post “@sineala X-men Evolution went all in for Logan remembering Steve from…”

Is it only one episode? or are there others that features Steve and/or Tony?

Steve’s in an episode of X-men Evolution (Operation: Rebirth) and in one for X-men: The Animated Series (Old Soldiers). X-men Evolution is definitely pre-Avengers but there’s a visual reference to Tony with the appearance of Stark Tower.

For really obscure, how about the Tony episode from Fantastic Four: World’s Greatest Heroes that came out after the 2005 movie? They had one episode involving Tony (Shell Games).
