So did the Spider Buggy exist as a living character before, or did they just look at his last name and thought "gently caress it. We're making a pun out of this."

I believe spider buggy is the secret crime fighting identity of Speed Buggy.



What I need to know is, does spiderverse include Italian Spiderman?

Considering their history I'm surprised "Never team up with the Punisher,

or Deadpool" didn't make the list.



Then again, I don't think I've ever read anything with both Moon Knight and Spider Man

I'd like to think that secretly Spidey enjoys his time with Deadpool.

An R-Rating is the first step. Now if they can make it without Deadpool constantly taking off his mask and showing Ryan Reynolds un-horrifically-scarred face it might actually be good.

This gets posted a lot. It's from the end of the original Armor Wars (Iron Man 222-231) and it's chock full of weird 80s nonsense.

In between busting up armored hero's and villians, Tony attends lots of Hollywood parties with random name drops and caricatures of irrelevant 80's celebrities.




This guy is obviously supposed to be somebody specific but I have no idea who.




Don Johnson, Michael J Fox, but I'm not sure who the third guy is supposed to be.


It's important to remember that 18 year olds don't cry.


It's also important to remind everyone that Tony's not getting AIDS.

That's Larry Hagman, who played J.R. Ewing on Dallas, hence the "dream" bit.

You're right, it's gotta be Hagman, if you google image search him the top results are all him wearing cowboy hats with silly bands.



The guy next to Michael J Fox, must be somebody that was on the cover of People around 1987. Pierce Brosnan Maybe?

Cable is absolutely an Everyday Carry guy with a reddit account littered with wide-angle photographs of tables covered in dumb sci fi guns. And the knife kept up by his neck! And the little fringe of hand grenades on his giant pauldron! I don´t even hate it, you can tell the artist was having a great time piling on all this stuff.

I like the string of artillery shells on his left shoulder, despite all his guns having square barrels so they couldn't use them.

Leifeld gets a lot of crap but, but he obviously enjoyed drawing all that stuff.

He was already second banana in the book to a Brooklyn cab driver turned sidekick named Doiby Dickles, then a woman sidekick named Harlequin, and then his book got turned into All Star Western out of nowhere.

The Golden Age was wild - books changed concepts and titles on a whim. My all time favorite was Moon Girl. Started out as a fantasy title Moon Girl and the Prince for one issue, then suddenly changed to Moon Girl for 5 issues because superheroes sold better, then suddenly changed to Moon Girl Fights Crime! for 3 issues because crime comics were the rage. But romance comics sold even better, so it changed YET AGAIN to A Moon, A Girl... Romance! But it STILL wasn’t done because EC saw that horror comics were the big money seller, so it became Weird Fantasy with issue 13. 5 title and genre changes in 13 issues!!!

I don't know about DC and EC comics, but for Marvel (or whatever they were called back then) they were only allowed a certain number of books at a time. Which is why so many Marvel characters didn't have their own titles until like the 70s.

Honestly after trying to run down entire series for recent comics, I'd rather get a few issues of Streak the Wonder Dog instead of them constantly ending a book after 14 issues only to start it again 6 months later with a new number 1 which I then have to track down.
