Episode 10.1 - Hiatus (AKA Where the heck have I been???)

Welcome to Back to the Show, all!  That's right, it's not a dream/illusion/glitch - it's an ACTUAL UPDATE in your inbox!! (*gasp*) I know! I can't believe it either!! If you were wondering where the blazes I disappeared to for dang near 2 years, wonder no longer! I'll give a brief (hopefully) overview on all the tea - what happened, my heartfelt apology, a quick review session of the show so far and the issues and stories we've covered to catch us back up to speed, and where we're going next with good ol' Shell-Head! It's good to be back, all.  (Hope you like the shiny new thumbnail! I figured for a relaunch, simple was best. Don't worry; I'll still showcase my drawing skills when major upgrades happen in the story, but they'll be on individual episodes rather than series-wide.) ** Issue(s) covered: Tales of Suspense Nos. 39-53 (RECAP) ~*~*~ Chapter timestamps: 00:00:00: I'm back! What happened?? 00:01:18: Allow Me To Reintroduce Myself To You 00:03:28: Remind Me What This Is Again...? 00:08:52: What We've Covered So Far (AKA The Recap Section) 00:16:33: Where Do We Go From Here? 00:19:40: Outro ~*~*~ Intro and Outro theme - "Breakdown" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Transition interludes created by Marissa Roberson in GarageBand Hosted on Acast.

Episode 9 - Interlude (AKA This May As Well Be Episode 8.1)

All right, so the villain in this one is the Scarecrow. Yes, there is a "Scarecrow" in Marvel comics as well! And he is... nothing to write home about, as far as I'm concerned. But since he appears in a main series Iron Man story, we're gonna give him his due anyway.  As much as is warranted in any case...!  Pay closer attention to our lovely supporting cast in this one because they really get their moments! Everything involving Happy and/or Pepper is just DELIGHTFUL. ** Issue covered: Tales of Supsense No. 51 ~*~*~ Chapter timestamps: 00:00:00: Intro 00:00:57: Part I: On Today's Episode of "Create Your Own Villain" 00:02:06: Part 1a - A Night At The Theatre 00:03:22: Part 1b - Desperate For Attention 00:06:12: Part 1c - Home Invasion! 00:09:32: Part 1d - Hogan Vs.
