Cannot believe I gotta comment this. Please before you comment going “wow I can’t dislike Ironheart wow wtf you’re calling me racist” please for the love of god and all things holy listen to what I said. I don’t even like Ironheart in the comics. All I said was if you dislike a character for being “SJW woke” or “she’s a black woman” you’re dumb. I stand by that, those are bad reasons to hate a character. If you feel the need to argue when you hear the statement “don’t hate a character cus “woke sjw” or w/e” that says a lot about you lmao. Or keep commenting and boosting the video in the algorithm. Your call
I mean, I don't read much comics but killing off a long standing beloved "white male" character to replace him with a black teenage version of him does seem the kind of moves "SJW" would pull. Now I can't claim for a certainty that that was the reason for the character's genesis but I can see why some people would see it that way and I've heard some pretty well constructed arguments about it. The way you present those complaints seem very defensive and disingenuous to me. Your kind of behaving like you accused them of behaving. That said, I'd love to hear your more elaborated take on those arguments. Like I said, I don't read much comics, I mostly just watch the Comics Explained channel, so I have no way to know how informed those opinions are. She did kind of in Black Panther 2 but I won't hold that against her, everyone kinda sucked in that movie. I'm so sorry Namor, you deserved better.
@@h0ll0w0ne Tony did not die. She was even introduced before he entered a coma. She did replace Iron Man in the main Iron Man comic run for about a year and a half but this isn’t anything new. As mentioned in the video Rhode took over as Iron Man and replaced Tony for two entire years in the 80s and again for a few months. Hell Tony didn’t even really go away, again as mentioned, his AI counterpart was a regular part of the series. Ironheart isn’t Tony Stark or a replacement for him. She never was. Did they introduce her in a poor way? Yeah I’d argue they did. Regardless of all of this if you hate a character because “she woke” you’re dumb
I'm black and I absolutely hate iron heart! She is just an unbelievable character even for a comic book! No way she is smarter than Tony Stark! She was the worst thing in wakanda forever ! And they're going to give this dull character a TV show!
One small thing you got wrong on the Civil War bit is that you don’t actually need to reveal you identity to the public just register to the government. Spider-Man only did that to show his initial support for the act. But it is a very common misconception on the internet.
@JakeSpacePirate E sorta. He fills in one of a few main character roles, so he had a bunch of character driven stuff in which he transitions his beliefs from Iron - Cap
iron man armored adventures was my favorite shit as a kid, i would watch it religiously when it came on nicktoons and the theme song has been stuck in my head literally forever, the costume designs are also so unique and looked sick, so glad that it still gets recognition and has fans.
I think a Daredevil iceberg would be fun (and if you do end up making one please include Death-Stalker, he's a forgotten villain from the 70s but he has such a cool design and powers that I'm shocked he hasn't been revived in the almost 45 years since he was killed off, outside of a brief return in a one-shot crossover with Captain America and a female version only appearing in the Villains For Hire miniseries), also as someone who grew up with my dad's Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe issues from the 80s it's fun already knowing about some of these obscure characters.
Hell yeah! You're the premier iceberg and comic book RU-vidr I've seen! Nothing better than just listening to hours of rich comic history and fun superhero stories! Well done man!
Let’s go. Another day made by pigpen! Thanks for all the work you do. These iceberg videos are so nice to have, I learn a lot through them and can’t recommend them enough to anyone interested in the topics. Thanks again Pigpen!!!
A possible alternative to the Iron Man nose is that Stan was critiquing a newer artist's profile of Iron Man. Saying his face was way too close to the face plate which would not leave room for a nose or anything..or at least that's what he intended to say when asking "where's his nose?" Implying this new faceplate would be cutting it off
I really hope the MCU incorporates Iron Lad soon since they’ve already introduced Rama-Tut, Scarlet Centurion and Immortus. He’s one of my favorite characters in Marvel and actually a really tragic and sympathetic one at that. He’s just an adolescent who just trying to advert his fate, but has to accept it.
It is always a good time for a pigpen video. Good delivery and tons of information. Personally, it's the bits of yourself injected every so often that take it to the next level. Personality goes quite the ways.
3:36 I loved this version of crimson dynamo as it was one of the first opponents tony had to push his only armour to its limits as he had to protect the Pegasus leader who caused dynamo to go lunatic and Demented in the first place by stranding him on the surface of the sun for years . If dynamos wife and child didn’t show up at the end then tony would have died. I still remember that scene where the dynamo crushed Ironman to the ground. The choreography was crazy
Woo! Been looking forward to this. I'm not super into Iron Man outside of the movies so this will be a cool way to learn more about the character and his mythos.
Me about to get on a 3 hour coach ride: damn I wonder what I’m gonna do for the next 3 hours :/ Pigpen: 😎 Can’t wait to watch, absolutely love your icebergs!!! Hope you have a lovely day :3
I really needed a long video to watch as I eat today. I know your probably made this thinking of me specifically, but thanks, man. Thanks for the great content!
I just think it’s very sweet that Tony Stark finds a hyper fangirl building her own Iron Man Suit and goes “Oh cool let me help you!” Instead of what some supers might say, “Fly Home, Buddy, I work alone.”
@@timbirdie8180to be fair, Buddy kept interfering in crime scenes like what happened with Bomb Voyage and could have gotten hurt or worse. Mr. Incredible didn't meet him just in public and saw him being a normal fan, Buddy became painfully obsessed (he even had his own Mr. Incredible themed room with a giant portrait of him).
What I appreciate about Iron Man's corner of Marvel is how characters actually tend to stay dead when they die. Many exceptions of course, but you'd be surprised what heavy hitters are still six feet under.
@@Pigpen_YT hey man I noticed that you forgot to mention that the creator of Riri Williams is a total creep because he named her after a Japanese porn which was made years before the comic. It's also very insulting and very very creepy that he named a underage female black superhero after his favorite jack off material. Nothing about how her character is in anyway original not even her superhero name
@@mariobadia4553You mean nothing to with her and her name is as more unique than Ironmans... If u had a actually legitimate complaint it wouldn't involve using some random shit u made up
I grew up with iron man armored adventures and it really is a great show. Some of my favorite armor designs and stories, and unarguably the best mandarin design. It really holds up.
I'm surprised you didn't talk about the time Iron Man's armor was hacked, taking over his mind & morphed Tony's body into Ultron-19 in the form of Janet for a few issues. Pretty crazy story with a fun gag they did with him after he was returned to normal. Or that time during the Darkhold run where it explored a dark alternate universe where Tony turns mad & his flesh is literally consumed & replaced with his suit. That was some heavy nightmare fuel.
Before the MCU, Iron Man is an underrated comic book character that everyone forgot. Since RDJ embodies his role, it seems like everyone knows about him. He’s basically Batman in Marvel, but that makes him even a better hero. *Thanks for making this 3+ hour iceberg*
Alright, I’ve seen these comments before, and although I was born in 2003, can you put this “Iron Man’s lack of popularity” into perspective? I mean, from what I can gather, he had a two-season cartoon hosted on Fox Kids, a 2007 animated movie, the Civil War storyline, a decent rogues gallery, and some of the coolest brains and tech in all of comic book fiction. Sadly, by the time I was fully aware of Iron Man, the movie had already been a hit, so I could never experience any Iron Man stuff before 2008, his breakout year. But yeah, I’d like to know how barren he really was in the grand scheme of things regarding his popularity and how Marvel used him.
Your icebergs are the best, really liking the obscure wacky entries of these hero ones. Alternative universes are really just excuses to have writers insert their “interesting” ideas. And can’t wait for the call of duty one next month 👏🏻
I love how you’ve doubled down on using Bionicle pics to censor things 🤣 Fantastic video man! You’ve straight up got some of my favorite content on all of RU-vid!
I had no idea Rhodey wears 3 different suits in Endgame, the dark colouring of that final battle rlly does mute a lot of the colours which kinda sucks, I understand it from a VFX standpoint but if the just gave them an extra few months to make that fight look like its actually set during the day that would've been nice hell I'd even take a special edition Star Wars style if it meant the vfx artists get to go back and spend time polishing up the CGI, lighting etc
i was just listening to your dead space iceberg today. And right as I was gonna listen to the Batman one again until I saw this video. Funny how news things come out when rewatching or playing video again
What's really stupid about Civil War is that no, secret identities did *not* need to be revealed to the public. Just the government. Yet Cap says his main issue with it is jeopardizing secret identities as if everyone had to do it like Spidey did.
Seeing the background of the iron man 1 game brought back waves of nostalgia. Flying, ripping helicopters, throwing missiles, charging that unibeam, and adapting to the situation with where I route my power system was so hype. I got iron monger to bug out and get stuck flying into a roof top
The thing about Ironheart is she could be so much more. So much of a stronger character...but the writers pissed away so much of her potential. There was no real vision for her as a character and how she could fit into the world of Iron man. This could be Tony's actual apprentice...which would be a very cool direction. She could be the ONE person Tony ends up trusting with his tech and effectively the technological bleeding edge of the future should anything happen to him. There was always tons of story potential there and I just don't think they quite see it.
They keep trying to give Spider-Man ice villains and none of them stick. Though I like Coldheart out of all of them because her gimmick is at least a little more unique and Spidey needs more female villains.
I hope your X-Men iceberg mentions "Mutants" first appearing in an Agent Woo comic. Even mentioning they look similar in appearance to any ordinary person.
2:45:15 Can I just point out that this is wildly out of character for Doom? Mephisto literally stole the soul of Doom's mother, Doom hates the guy. I could buy this if he was trading Tony Stark for his mother, but this? No.
I'm just waiting for Tony in a comic line to build a Universe Buster armor that acts as a vacuum and sucks everything up in the universe into his suit and afterwards he just standing in a white nothing background like Bugs Bunny or Daffy Duck in those Looney Tunes shorts and he's like "Finally, Peace" and just sits in the nothing white background. So there, there is my pitch for the stupidest comic book idea ever. (Outside of Superman at Earth's End) 😂😂😂
While there were a small subset of people that probably hated riri Williams because she was black, that's not the main reason she was so hated, if that's true, then miles morales should be just as hated, anyway it's most likely because they flat out replaced Tony stark with some random new character they created only roughly a year earlier who was far less popular, they gave her his series, his role, his armour, tbh I fully understand why those people were mad, I personally feel they should have just given her a solo title of her own, that way she can build a story for herself instead of just hijacking someone else's. After all they did the same thing when the classic ironman was replaced by his younger self when Tony turned evil, just think about it, tony stark was basically changed drastically and so a far younger child prodigy character with a very weird armour design of their own was brought in to replace them as the new ironman, and that wasnt popular either, although at least with the teenage ironman, it was just a younger version of himself replacing him, and not random character with mo affiliation to tony stark, so no, most of the criticism levied again riri Williams was not from racism, it's because people have a pretty emotional attachment to ironman and didn't like seeing them replaced. Also before anyone tries call this a hate comment, it's not, it's just me expressing my opinion on the whole iron heart situation, I feel a lot of people were labeled racist for not liking iron heart simply because that's what the media usually does when a diverse character isn't warmly recieved
I for some reason thought the song Iron Man by Black Sabbath would be on this iceberg (even tho the song has nothing to do with the character at all), but still a great video! (Tho I am late on saying that.) Can't wait to see more icebergs!
2:18:42 this was an experiment in using POSER®️ software to make comics; POSER®️ was first OTC 3D software that could be easily used create and pose 3D figures/characters; it’s been popular with hobbyists for over 2 decades; for the first few issues, it was used to create character models and panel layouts, which were then drawn over; for the last few issues, it was used almost exclusively to create fully rendered panels; this is why the books look so radically different; as someone who has been using the software regularly since before the books were published, I have to agree that the work looks rushed, even by the standards of the time…
Pigpen, as usual, dropped an absolutely awesome video. Keep it up! I love seeing the iceberg and comic content! You make the best iceberg videos I’ve ever seen. The chill, nonchalant style makes your videos some of my favorite to listen to while gaming
Surprised that there’s not even a single mention of Iron God. It is an armor that Tony Stark use when bathing in the energy of the the Power Cosmic in order to defeat Korvac.
Iron Lad did start the dark path in Avengers: The Children's Crusade. He killed Young Vision out of jealousy after he found out he and Cassie Lang (who had just been killed by Doctor Doom) were in a relationship, and then escaped into the future. Then he returned as "Kid Immortus" in Matt Fraction's Fantastic Four, if I can recall.
