The Shining Armor Podcast (AKA I Just Wanna Talk About Iron Man) Marissa Roberson
-
- Leisure
Hello, all! My name is Marissa, and this is a series hosted by a nobody and relative newcomer to super hero comics who loves all things Marvel and just wants to talk about Iron Man. Because apparently no one else wants to. We're gonna go through as much of the 60-year comic book history of the Armored Avenger as we can manage! If that sounds good to you or if you just also think Iron Man should be talked about more outside the confines of the MCU, then welcome aboard! Thanks for listening!

Episode 10 - Femme Fatale (AKA This Dangerous Beauty is Bad News for Our Hero)
We made it to the double-digits, y'all! Welcome to Episode 10!
Here we are re-introduced to a formidable foe, and we are newly introduced to deadly new enemy who keeps both Tony AND Iron Man on their toes, in more ways than one. Not the least of which being that SHE happens to play on all of his worst weaknesses...
Dangerous women are not to be underestimated...

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.
