Hey, kids! What time is it?
Time to get a new watch!
Return with us now to those glorious days of yesteryear, when comics came out every Wednesday, there was a new car in every a garage, a chicken in every pot, and a pot calling the kettle collect! When the review pile gets high enough to fall over, it’s time for Rapid-Fire REVIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEWWWWW  OOOOooooOOOOOO!
Or – “What Iron Man Really Looks Like…”

I have to go on record as being very unhappy with the current state of Iron Man’s armor. I hate the “evening gloves and hip boots” thing, and I really dislike the almost-simian shape of the butt-ugly new mask. I guess everybody has their favorite version of various characters, but mine will always be the red-and-silver, big shouldered Centurion armor from 1987 or so. As drawn by Mark Bright and others, it was always visually impressive, and really made the character stand out among the rest of Marvels’ finest. Some said it looked too much like a Transformer, but for me, it’s one of the few looks that Shellhead has ever had that actually LOOKS like armor… What does this have to do with the issue I’m reviewing?
Not a thing, folks. Welcome to Major Spoilers, restrooms are right over there…

Or – “What Happens When I Continue To Fall Behind On Everything?”

What’s the scraping noise? Looks like the raccoon done busted out the heavy weapons, which means it’s time for another look at some of the comics that were too esoteric, too weird, or too numerous to look at individually: RAPID FIRE REVIEWS! BRAKKA BRAKKA BRAKKA! Make sure that the release lever is elevated, and that the debris shield is down, put on your safety goggles and PREpare… to REview!
