Iron Man 2: Did you just do that? (SPOILER ALERT!)
I think I have given enough time for all the hardcore nerds to see Iron Man 2 so here goes. Whilst diving into Tony Stark's problem with alcohol abuse a scene takes place in the movie during Tony's birthday where he is on stage in the Iron Man uniform and tells the crowd, "A lot of people ask me how i go to the bathroom in this thing(pause)...like that." Now this lame joke in itself could be a Marvel Mishap, but it's not. Tony Stark always has his machines bolt on the iron man suit while he is fully clothed so do the robots somehow pull off his underwear and replace them with a diaper every time he suits up or did he just piss himself? I'm going to go with the second choice. Not very heroic...and pretty lame.

From My Personal Collection:
What do Marvel heroes do when they're not fighting super villains? Combat the dangers of smoking of course! In 1982 and again in 1991 The American Cancer Society teamed up with Marvel comics to release a free issue where Spider-Man, Powerman, and Storm fight Smokescreen, a villain who is trying to get a high school track star to smoke. Turns out the Mob is betting on the next track meet and are trying to get him to smoke to rig it. And you were worried they were killing people and smuggling Cocaine into the country.

From My Personal Collection:
Marvel REALLY hoped you wouldn't find out about this
D.C. may have made a bad pilot they wanted to hide, but Marvel made a movie so horrible you can not buy it in stores. The holy grail of bad comic book movies, 1994's Fantastic Four. It features everything you would imagine. Bad acting, bad special effects, bad story, and a really horribl...e looking Thing. The only place to find this gem now is at comic book conventions and on the good ol' internet.
D.C. hoped you wouldn't find out about this one
Ghost Rider: The Movie
Need I say more? Well I will. This was the nail in Nick Cage's Career Coffin. So Horrible. Sam Elliot, why would you do this?? Oh and the two best features were Nick's air brushed ab's and chowing down candy. Your a !@#$ing demon! Drink Jack Daniels straight or something!!Candy?! Really!? Thanks Marvel.
From my personal collection: Stan Lee's Lantern
In 2001 D.C. comics thought it would be a good idea to let Marvel's favorite old guy write some stories for some of their characters. They could not have been more wrong. I thankfully only bought one of Lee's revamps of the DC cast, but understand that they are all equally... horrible. I bought the Green Lantern one and wow, it is bad. I haven't read it since after the first time and can not make myself read it again.From what I can remember Green Lantern is some douche professor, who gets shot, then gets magical powers from a tree and becomes G.L. In a letter to the reader in the beginning Stan Lee says, "Please don't think for one minute that this is an attempt to improve on any of the truly great characters that have become lege...ndary throughout the world." You can say that again.

From my personal collection: Justice Society
Even in the modern age of comics and even with a writer like Geoff Johns working on the issue, we as comic book fans still have to deal with bad stories. Justice Society of America #26 is an action packed story where the entire Justice Society celebrates Star Girl's... birthday......?? That's right! A whole issue of JSA in party hats, eating cake, and giving presents to the teen hero. Don't worry though fellow fans. The ending makes up for the rest of the story when the JSA accompanies Star Girl to get her braces removed...which she doesn't because they aren't ready. Why do you punish me like this God? Not even one SHAZAM in the whole issue??

From my personal collection: Howard the Duck
A lovable Character in a cracked out comic. How can you not love Howard the Duck? There are times however where the story gets taken so far it is almost unbearable to read. In issue 12 of Howard the Duck his current counterpart and one of the most annoying comic characters ever, Winda is placed in a Insane Asylum and on the last page of the issue her nightmares come to life in the form of the rock band KISS. Completely horrible. Excelsior!

Superman 2
In superman two, the Donner edition, Lois Lane tries to prove that Clark Kent is Superman by shooting him in the chest with a gun. It is then revealed that the gun has blanks in it...The Only thing that this proves is that Lois Lane is a f*&^ing psycho.
Dance The Night Away
Since Marvel has decided to put Chris Evans in the role of Captain America, I think it is only fair to poke fun at them this week by doing a Marvel Mishap. When I first thought to make this page the obvious jumped into my head for the first Marvel Mishap. Peter Parker Dancing in Spider Man 3. IT IS HORRIBLE! Why would ...you make a superhero dance!? Why even waste time on the film showing that when he should be out somewhere in costume kicking cocks off?!
