Back in the day, Marvel’s “The Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe” went remarkably in depth in the technical detail department. The Marvel Universe’s armored heroes and villains were my favorite entries.

IIRC, one dude did all the maps and technical details.

The amazing Eliot R. Brown!

<Fifty-Five> It’s fun that every menu option in Andromeda is slowly bugging, one after another, until they all permanently say there’s something new on them even though there isn’t.
<RulerBulon> One might say it’s a regular house of buggin’.
<Fifty-Five> No one anywhere would make a reference to House of Buggin’.
<RulerBulon> Well I just did, what are you gonna do about it?
<Fifty-Five> Regret knowing you?
<RulerBulon> Yeah, that’s what usually happens.

*this* is the Captain America we need to be hearing from right now, not ‘fascism made edgy for plot-twists’

I’m pretty sure that this is the “Surrender? DO YOU THINK THIS A STANDS FOR FRANCE?” Captain America…

No, this is original recipe Cap, from Rick Remender and Carlos Pachecho’s Loose Nuke storyline. It’s a few issues before his Super-Soldier Serum got neutralized and he handed the reins over to Sam.

(He briefly had an MCU-inspired lightly-armored costume, which…did not look great.)

• Question: can you pls resurrect freedom ring? thank you - Anonymous

  IIRC, he got his powers from one of the Mandarin’s rings. Since the Mandarin has them all, he would have no powers.
  

  Not exactly - he had a “wishing ring” made from Cosmic Cube fragments, which was passed on to the Skrull hero Crusader. Although Crusader fought on the side of Earth during Secret Invasion, he was shot by the 3-D Man who believed him to be one of the invaders; dying, he wished things had turned out differently, and disappeared. So the ring’s location is currently unknown.

I got a Spiderman question.

Who is Hammerhead and is he J. Jonah Jameson, and if so, why is he evil-er now.

If not, why does he look like evil J. Jonah Jameson.

he’s a mook, a Dick Tracy reject who fills that weird in-between space of not quite a supervillain, not quite an ordinary criminal.

IIRC he’s an older Spidey villain from the early Silver Age, when they were still working out exactly what Spidey was going to be, enemy-wise.

He’s a surprisingly late addition to the rogues gallery - he didn’t show up until 1972, after Spider-Man had been around for ten years.

He’s kind of a throwback - both to Spider-Man’s early gangster enemies like the Big Man and the Enforcers, and to Dick Tracy’s grotesque villains. He’s also a throwback in-story, as he was a criminal who suffered a massive head injury, only to be discovered by criminal surgeon Jonas Harrow slumped against a brick wall beneath a poster for an old gangster movie - after Harrow saved him by putting a steel plate in his skull, the amnesiac criminal based his Hammerhead persona on the poster, the only thing he still remembered.
