This installment of Marvel Comics cartoons features the invincible Iron Man. In The Death of Tony Stark, a laser beam emitted from a mysterious satellite orbiting the Earth destroys the home of wealthy industrialist Tony Stark. Iron Man's alter ego has obviously dodged the strike but cannot disprove the rumor that Stark is dead until he confronts the culprit, the Mandarin. In The Crimson Dynamo, Iron Man faces Soviet electrical genius Professor Vanko, who has designed his own suit of crimson armor in order to defeat Iron Man as the first step to destroying the ultimate capitalist, Stark Enterprises. These stories, rather dated in their cold-war depiction of the Chinese and the Soviets, are each divided into three six-minute serial-type segments. The animation is minimal, restricted mostly to camera zooms and moving limbs and mouths, punctuated by Batman-style sound effects ("Wham!"). Other heroes in this series include Sub-Mariner, Spider-Man, Captain America, the Hulk, and Thor. --David Horiuchi

Rating : - 'Old Skool' Iron man
This is a blast from the past. It's amazing what parts of culture are recorded in film, even in cartoOns. Yes, the USA had a cold war era. Ironman brings this out. He's a pure American.
John Vernon is great voicing Tony Stark. Sure the animation is basic, but the story sort of makes up for it. Before 'Dr.Evil', there was The Mandarin! Yea, he's a bit exaggerated, especially when he says he's a Karate' master (altho him being Chinese, I would think the Mandarin would say 'Kung Fu Master' instead.)
Iron man was charging up 'energy' anywhere he could with wires, LONG before USB cables. heh heh
