Iron Mullet and Flat-top Machine! He’s not in the shot, but Jarvis used to rock zooba pants and a rat tail.
I absolutely love that we can look back at the fashion in comics and face palm the same way we can with movies. That’s a special thing. Someday our children will watch the RDJ films and say “What is he wearing?”
And Tony has the silver centurion armour on. The hair styles, the costumes, everything was better in the eighties. Everything.
“You’ve been more than a pilot for some time, Rhodey…”
It is statistically likely that there’s some slash fic out there on the internet somewhere right now that begins with this exact sentence.
So 90s its funny

That hairstyle and stache will never look dated! Especially not when they are complemented with those awesome shoulder pads.

Hair in old comics is one of the best things ever
I loved that old silver centurion armor. And Tony spent his fortune on Soul Glow.
I move that iFanboy begin a regular feature: “Great Moments in Comics Hair-story.”
