Erush...I'm 42 and still remember reading Iron man from my younger days. I even remember the old cartoon show that was filmed like a comic strip...you know, actors spoke the script for the characters while a still picture was presented on screen and after a few seconds the picture changed. Really dramatic shots where when the camera was zoomed in, and turned slightly, onto the one shot to give the impression of movement. Each day it was a different super hero, Iron Man, The Hulk, Thor, Captain America, etc. Ahh, those were the days

I even rember the first suit of armour Ironman had, which looked rather, err cruddy

! Iron man was a ' dark hero' in those days, Frosty...is he still portrayed that way?
Sorry WW, Captain America didn't do it for me. When it came to comics, I was more the Thor (something about cracking skulls with a 30lb lump hammer instead of a super frisbie), X-men (the original series where you only had Cyclops, Angel, Dr X, etc, and they wore those really awful baggy yellow and blue threads) and Ironman type person. I did have a secret leaning toward DC comic's The Green Lantern, but that might have been because of the female character (Black Cat?) that was often drawn in them. Hey, I was a teenage boy then, give me a break[:0]
Thanks for bringing this one up Frosty. I love getting a little nostalgic.
