#8 SUB-MARINER: TARGET FOR DEATH!

Issue #54
Cover Artist: Gil Kane

From Marvel Wikia:
"The mysterious Madame MacEvil sends a satellite into orbit so that she can spy on Earth. She decides to perform an experiment upon the Sub-Mariner and sends a missile at an iceberg, so that it showers a nearby ship with ice.

The Sub-Mariner comes to the ship's rescue. In Seattle, Iron Man is headed to the Stark Industries facility, but pauses to halt a band of thieves. However, he suddenly loses control of his armor to Madame MacEvil, who sends him into a fight with Sub-Mariner. She hopes to take the Sub-Mariner prisoner, but Tony tries to fight off her control, sensing that the power controlling him comes from her ship.

Iron Man maneuvers Namor between himself and the ship then fires repulsors at him, deliberately missing and hitting the ship instead. Madame MacEvil loses her control over Iron Man and he quickly departs, although Namor vows vegeance. Madame MacEvil wants revenge as well. "

Your Comments:

I think people would've been less disappointed if you'd called it "top 10 Iron Man covers I paid less than $3 for." I can pick 10 better covers out of Tales of Suspense alone.

I think you made a lot of great picks. Demon in a Bottle is my favorite, but none of us would come up with identical lists. Practically any of your choices would be vying for 2nd on my list. Great job!

@ Le....

No problem man, I understand.

Any ways those links I posted all work and they show the covers I am referring to. But all covers are from the early 100's of Invincible Iron Man.

@SeekerMuadib: LOL! HeroClix World is not a forum! I actually disable links right now because it avoids a lot of spam problems! But I will take your suggestion under advisement. In the meantime, I hope you like the new AJAX controlled comment-posting system!

Ugh...sorry I was hoping those would appear as links to click on to view the image.

Forum fail.

My absolute favorite cover of all time of Iron Man. It just shows Tonies vulnerability.

For me this is the iconic image of Iron Man that I grew up with.

Just a personal favroite with Spymaster ripping the armor apart with his nunchuks.

I liked this one becauyse it shows the strength Tony has while in the armor. Most covers show him shooting something or flying. Simple I liked seeing him bending the barrle like this.

And lastly.....it is a huge part of Tonies past and is still to this day talked about or mentioned.

Yes all of these are from a certain time period in Tonyies history. But this was the era of Iron Man that I grew up on. So yes to me these are some of the more memorable comic book covers to me. I am sure all of you can toss in plenty more of your own.

I agree with you guys. Loads of great covers out there. Even if this list was only restricted to vol 1 there are still plenty of alternatives!
Iron Man 3 wasn't that bad!

I'm with JokerShark on this one. With all the possible covers I would have thought at least one Hulk, Thor, Cap, Hawkeye or another Avenger. And really no "Demon in a Bottle" cover? They made a statue of it, but not worthy of a cover?

Either Iron Man comics have some of the worst cover artists in comics, or that was just a pretty lame list.. No Mandarin? No Titanium Man? No War Machine? I could probably pick a number at random and come up with some better cover issues.. Sorry Iron Man, but it looks like your cover art is as bad as your movie sequels
