One of my favorites actors.<br />He must be at the point in his career where he just plays bird-guys, now. <br />It sounds pretty good, actually!<br /><br />M.P.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142199900369238852.post-65200751849505976402017-02-01T17:05:50.697-05:002017-02-01T17:05:50.697-05:00M.P., if the Shocker is indeed having the Tinkerer...M.P., if the Shocker is indeed having the Tinkerer tinker with his fist units, he should probably ask for his money back!<br /><br />Colin, maybe we should count ourselves lucky--would you want to see some of the crazies we encounter on the road <i>airborne?</i> Egad!Comicsfanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10064955427593820783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142199900369238852.post-51315294386095000132017-02-01T09:47:52.244-05:002017-02-01T09:47:52.244-05:00We were promised flying cars but instead we get se...We were promised flying cars but instead we get self-driving cars :DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142199900369238852.post-67111947450627437882017-02-01T09:26:06.169-05:002017-02-01T09:26:06.169-05:00I assumed the Spider-buggy was inspired by, or an ...I assumed the Spider-buggy was inspired by, or an ironic comment about, the Mego toy, which was, er, a little spider-buggy you could put your Mego Spider-Man in, and have adventures.<br />I did not have these toys as a child, and that may be why I'm a neurotic mess today. If anybody out there is thinking real hard about what to get me for my birthday, this would be an acceptable gift.<br />I like seeing the Tinkerer again! I first saw him in a reprint of the early Spider-man comic, and, years later, in Captain America of all places! I thought, "Hey, wasn't this guy an alien?"<br />Nope, he's like your friendly neighborhood super-villain mechanic, who works under the table and off the books and will fix and upgrade your super-villain weapons at a reasonable price. I wonder if the Shocker gets his gear worked on by that guy. <br />I enjoyed this post! Cheers!<br /><br />M.P.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
