I see.
I wonder if Spidey ever dated Spider-Woman.

So far Peter's never dated any of the Spider-Women, Marvel are keen to keep him as the "everyman hero" balancing a superhero life with a normal job and girlfriend (or wife depending on what continuity you follow), dating a superhero would make him "unrelatable".

I actually really enjoyed Season 1 of IM. The 2nd half was full of good background on the characters.
A few questions I had which didn't make sense to me.
1. If Stark was injured by one of Hammer's robots (before he was IM), why did he show no sign of extreme pain with the shards in his spine?. I figured the attack and injury would have caused more physical damage if his spine was affected.
2. The Doctor that dressed like a lion part was pointless. I didn't understand why he was in the coffin and dressed like that in the first place if all Mandarin wanted was for them to work together to make the armor since Stark couldn't do it on his own.
Those are the only 2 things I need cleared up.
I did notice some similarities between these origin eps and the Iron Man movie (again, the only 2 continuities I follow is Animated & Movies).
So yeah, enjoyed this season so perhaps I am in for a nice treat with Season 2. I am hoping I get some origins on how Rhodes became War Machine as well.

He is alright. I noticed Uncle Phil/Shredder ain't voicing him after a few episodes into season 2.

So Fing Fang Foom and the 4 other Dragons double crossed Mandarin by making him think they'd serve him since he had the rings but then blamo... Mandarin got fucked but not as bad as FFF in the end.
Sad to see Force Works disbanded but I did agree with the reasons why they did it. Atleast Spider-Woman & War Machine stayed. The new opening theme is 100x better than the previous one. Infact it falls into my favourite with X-Men's.
Tony magically has the thing in his chest now and not in season 1?, again was it from the attack on him from s1's Origin of Iron Man flashback?.
So AIM took Stark's dad for an experiment, Fury found out but told tony that his father died?. AIM fucked around with HOMER to make him tell Tony that SHIELD traded tony's dad for another captive shield agent so Iron Man would defect from SHIELD and most likely destroy eachother.
That fucked up but the revelation in the end with his dad's mind actually being transfered into the clone and dieing was awesome. Man, this is like a soap opera lol.
Diggin' the phobia and backstory on Rhodes past as a child almost drowning.
Why did AIM try to take credit for blowing up the school in China if it wasn't them and was Dearborn?.
Mandarin is far more entertaining this season while on his quest to reaquire those rings. But I take it that AIM is a far bigger threat to Stark this season than Mandarin.
This season took a much darker turn, awesomeness.

Was it explained exacally how Mandarin got ahold of the Heart of Darkness?.
I thought the finale was pretty damn good, probally the best next to Spider-Man's at this point. I was shocked to see Mandarin even turn on his own goons to use the natural mutant abilities along with Force Works.
Some serious language in season 2, I noticed words like Son of a, Crap, Stick it. I was shocked that Mandarin ended up getting his hand chopped off, that was just awesome. The Iron Man Armor in the finale was bad ass looking as well.
Only minor complaint for the finale was War Machine should have been used in the final fight as well.
The team up with Hulk was cool. I wasn't too fond of the little changes they made though with Bruce trying to save some random dude and NOT saving Luke Perry on the bike. But it's understandable since this season aired before Hulk did. The Leader was MUCH more cooler in this episode than in Hulk, sadly.
Having Force Works return was great too, I really liked that team. Good to see Hawk Eye clear some air between himself and Machine & Iron, finally. I wonder how this will play out in the Avengers movie.
Overall I did enjoy this series alot. Probally the best next to Spidey & X-Men.
I figure if there was a 3rd season we would have seen more of AIM, Tony's clone father, and probally some more team ups too.
I also watched THE INVINCIBLE IRON MAN animated movie, I thought it was alright. Nice plot twist with whats-her-name being the host for the Mandarin.
So now I am onto The Avengers: United They Stand, followed by Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes, and then for finale of Marvel time.... The X-Men!.

has left HJU. Not coming back.
I got Thor: Tales of Asgard DVD from Walmart last night. Plan to watch this tonight after I get off from work.
Also, before I went to Walmart, I finally saw Thor in the theater with closed captions. It was freaking awesome. I loved every moment of this. Stan Lee's cameo was hilarious.

Anyone able to answer any of my Iron Man S2 questions/comments?.
Enjoying Avengers so far, Ant-Man is pretty cool. I'm pumped for the Iron Man & Thor team up episodes. I like the theme song and this series is easily the Super Sentai/Power Rangers of the MAU at this point. But this is just really a filler and prep for EARTH's MIGHTIEST HEROES!!!, w00t!.
