I didn't know if anyone had seen my CAF additions so I thought I would post the sketches Ryan and I got at Free Comic Book Day. Ryan got Michelangelo from Sean Forney. I got Mandarin from Darryl Banks. I know I said I wasn't going to but Shane convinced me.

Iron Man 3

I just got home from seeing Iron Man 3 (Who new they had 9 p.m. showings the day before the opening?) I had been looking forward to writing a review but now I don't want to ruin it for you. I will say that if you are an 18-24 year old who only knows Iron Man from the recent movies you will probably like this movie (The majority of the audience applauded at the end). If you have knowledge of Iron Man Comic history before the year say 2000 (maybe even much later) then it may be a toss up. I will end this post with one positive and one negative. The positive:  I enjoyed Don Cheadle's performance as Rhodey much more in this movie than in IM 2. The negative: I am so upset about how The Mandarin was portrayed (Nothing against Ben Kingsley. He did the best he could) that I am not going to have Darryl Banks draw him for me Saturday as I had originally planned. There is a lot more I would like to say but I will save it for a few days until everyone has had a chance to see the movie.
