Doctor Doom isn't up for making friends, so the two teams do what they do best - beat each other up. I just realized that some of the supervillains are missing their trademark capes. The Secret Wars were so mysterious. I also seem to recall the series introducing Spider-Man's much cooler black costume, which in turn ultimate introduced one of his most famous foes, Venom. Not sure if that happened in Secret Wars I or Secret Wars II, though. Don't really care, either. I just needed to fill out a paragraph. Blah, blah blah. You know. Yeah. Shoowop. It's like those two crazy yogurt spokeswomen say... 'that's 2-for-1 hosiery good.'
Doesn't Cap look like he's dancing in the background? Ah, the perils of still-frame storytelling. Iron Man tells the other heroes that he'll handle the problem, which is cool with them since dodging laser fire and huge mechanical octopus tentacles isn't high up their on their desire lists. Geez, they picked the weirdest spots to utilize these lick-and-stick stamps. Iron Man's leg? What's the point? At least give me a torso to lick.
Hey now, I didn't know Iron Man could do that! An image inducer - how novel! Oodles of Iron Men, but only one real Iron Man! Oh those silly villains, they'll be tricked for sure! If I was Doctor Doom, I'd just hold up a cardboard cutout of The Mandarin with a word balloon reading 'You're a twat, Stark!' The first Iron Man who runs at it with fists-of-rage and screams of 'HARYUKENNANUGET!' would have to be the real one. The rest are just yellow and red herring.
Thanks for the tip, Kang. I'm sure your buddies all thought that there were suddenly 1,500 different Iron Men who could materialize in other dimensions at will. Kang sucks.
Though Iron Man's plan was ingenious, it won't fool those dirty scoundrels forever. What will happen when the locate the real Iron Man? Only one way to find out, true believers...
