ROLLER SKATES

I felt that what today really needed was a picspam of Iron Man's roller skates:














I couldn't find any screencaps of Tony using the roller skates in IM:AA, but here's a video clip.

Yeah, I've spent a lot of thought on this. They all seem to be either very... Human; driven by greed or ambition, or very damaged. It's interesting to note that all the sympathetic villains on the show are victims of child abuse (I cried at the end of the Living Laser + M.O.D.O.C episode. LEGIT TEARS).

Which really makes me more curious about Justin Hammer's background in S2, because so far he's really behaved as a batshit insane homicidal brat. O__o

I haven't gotten to S2 yet, but I'm curious to see, myself.

That second Living Laser episode was really good. There are several points in S1 that made me misty. (Including that one scene with Rhodey's mom and Tony.)

:D S2 has some great stuff; admittedly also some weak episodes and some things I'm less excited about, but still great stuff. The rest of the Marvel universe starts to become truly integrated with AA!verse in the shape of a bazillion references, Tony is being... Tony (the two-part first episodes of the second season are... Incredibly, painfully IC) and also did I mention Armor Wars? Because there is Armor Wars. And Doctor Doom. And Hawkeye and Black Widow. Basically AWESOME.

The Living Laser is... One of those characters I never thought I'd cry over, lol. This cartoon, what has it done to me. I found the S1 finale positively heartbreaking as well, in a "LOOK AT YOUR LIFE GENE, LOOK AT YOUR CHOICES" kind of way (Gene Khan gives me feeeelings, I could probably write a mini-essay on his role in this cartoon).
