Ah the 60s. When you could punch a coworker in front of the boss and get a warning. Also Pepper is completely unfazed by the violence that she immediately gripes about the lack of attention. Is Happy just punching everyone when Tony isn't around? - MB

We've got Magnet Sign!!! And this time it's Iron Man who is affected by the magnets though in past comics he's been immune to magnets. Maybe the new armor is no longer immune? Maybe the writer & artist forgot? Maybe I'm thinking about it more than they did? - MB

You ever try and karate chop somebody while wearing a big thick Jostens class ring? It’s a good way to jack up the rest of your fingers. The Mandarin does it with TEN of those mothers. Clearly he’s someone to be reckoned with. - LCJS

One of the backups in this issue is the second installment of "Tales of the Watcher." Sadly, like the Wasp backups in Tales To Astonish, these are just standard Twilight Zone style tales with the Watcher playing the role of Rod Serling. - JRW

It’s a tough, tough situation we find ourselves in. Just a reminder that none of us are in it alone. Take care of yourselves, folks. - LCJS
