Welcome to Chapter 16 – Invasion, Pt. 3: Secrets, Secrets Are No Fun. This promises to be a big, bold chapter taking us right through SF 500. You just know that one’s going to be HUGE. I can say no more right now.
Newer SuperFans may be unfamiliar with Soviet Sam’s story. He’ll be telling us his side of it for a few strips here, but if you’d like to see his first appearance and the events that set him on his life’s path, you can check it out right now, right here.

Who’s excited for Iron Man 3?
by Marc Lapierre on February 1st, 2013Greetings, SuperFans! It’s your Friendly Neighborhood Fogeys artist here. Another summer blockbuster movie season is fast approaching and one film I’m really looking forward to this year is Iron Man 3. Recently a new teaser poster was released which I think is heads and shoulders above most movie posters these days. If you haven’t seen it yet, check it out here.
My first impression of this poster is how it would make for a cool retro Mighty Marvel comic book cover. So, I tried my hand at drawing the classic Iron Man, worked some Photoshop coloring magic, added some Marvel-esque cover copy, and slapped on an old logo to create this parody mock up of the Iron Man 3 poster. What do you think?
Credit where credit is due, the logo, Comics Code seal, and corner box are originally from the real Iron Man #3 first published in July of 1968. I changed the month to May to reflect the movie’s opening date.
I’m a huge fan of the classic Marvel look from the 60′s and 70′s and creating this piece was both fun and educational for me. This piece serves as a little love letter to the Marvel Age of comics as well as to a great modern movie poster.
Here's a look at the original inks before all the Photoshop magic.

Aww, cheer up Sam! We love you!
Poor Sam, even I feel sorry for him.
All he wanted to do was be the hero, the very best he could be. Yet he still can’t do to the most simplest things.
Poor Sam.
Oh geez I just got the sinking suspicion Sam’s not making it through this chapter alive…
He’ll save someone’s life and go out smiling like a hero and I’ll spend a week sobbing disgustingly.
See, I just got that exact same feeling!
WHY WOULD YOU EVEN PUT THAT THOUGHT IN BROCK’S HEAD??
Don’t do it, Brock, you fiendish blackguard! Don’t you DARE!
Space Pig is like Jimminy Cricket for Soviet Sam. If anything happens to him Sam’s turning evil.
