Actually, yes, as it's the original Legion club house which was gifted to the Subbies when the Legion moved to a new headquarters.

Akane and Makoto are witches, and they're traveling back home to visit their parents. Their cat familiars are coming with them, but since cats aren't allowed on trains, they're pretending to be plushies, by staying really still whenever people are looking at them.

It looks like that basically any portion of his armor that's gold colored and needs to be flexible is the stuff he's talking about in that panel. They seem to do that every once in a while in order to make it so that Tony can carry the armor around in a suitcase.

Losing that, and the Tony Stark’s bodyguard thing, really helped rehab Iron Man as a character. Even as a kid, I didn’t buy the skin tight parts of the armor.

It's what the movies lacked, at least the latter ones. Once MCU Stark had nano-technology armor there was nothing stoping him from becoming catsuit Iron Man.

It's one of those things that was shown in the comics a bunch early on, like even the whole armour would sometimes be depicted as flexible and stuffed into his attache case.

Personally I think it eventually stopped being depicted or mentioned because no one is satisifed with how it looks, and then other, later armours are either more explicitly hunks of metal or made of nanites or whatever..

God Stan Lee fuckin loved transistors. And I always loved when there was a scene where Iron Man had to recharge so he would just straight up plug his armor into a wall socket.

I can understand the first panel where you're thinking about what you're doing, Tony, but in the rest of these, who are you narrating to?

I loving love how he says it takes microseconds for this to happen, and yet is talking as normal, so I can only assume he is speaking like Alvin and the Chipmunks on helium.

I'm going to let you in on a little secret: that stuff was accurate!


Okay, not really. But it showed that someone was reading science magazines and incorporating that stuff into their comics.

Transistors can be used as amplifiers like they were in the early Iron Man stories. But it's more like a tap on a faucet than... whatever it was they were doing with them. Tiny changing to the control input can be reflected as large changes to the output, but eventually you turn the tap on all the way and that's all you're going to get out of it.

Keeping in mind that transistors were a new technology in 1963 that people were just figuring out, I'd guess that someone (probably Larry Lieber) was reading articles on them and misunderstood a bit about the amplifier effect.

FWIW, this was probably a reference to Morton Downey Jr., a talk show host at the time who got a brief spike of infamy for being especially trashy. I think by the time the nineties rolled around, he was effectively forgotten.

He's probably most well known now for being the namesake of Morton Koopa Jr., one of the Koopalings in the Mario series.

Morton's the one with the star on his eye.
