CURIOUS

I made the following for a friend, to help clear her mind of bad art. It got me curious. The art is different for every arc, so we get a different Tony and a different Steve every few issues, but most people who read fic, or even just think about characters while they aren't reading comics, have a picture in their head that is their own representation of the character.



alright I decided to change them to links since they're stretching the screen and I hate that :||

Tony in my head collage. I thought I preferred Tony with a more long/lanky/angular look but uh lol apparently not!

Steve in my head collage.

Steve didn't surprise me at all, I am very aware that I like him to look like a fucking tank. xD
I was gonna be more comprehensive but life D:



Who is Tony and who is Steve in your head? What are your favorite looks? There are so many different variations of these guys, I'm really curious to see what some of you picture when you write and read!

In my head he plays Half-Life and Gears of War and likes yelling at the screen when they get they get the science wrong. And watches just a little bit too much Mythbusters. (There is no way that Tony's not a closet geek like that.)

OMG YES THERE NEEDS TO BE FIC ABOUT THAT!

POSSIBLY WITH EXPLOSIONS AND A DISAPPROVING JARVIS!

Oh man there's no way he's a closet geek, he wears that shit proud. He makes everyone who's anywhere near the living room come in and sit down when Mythbusters is on, and makes bets with them over which myths will be busted and which will be confirmed. And he is so triumphant when he's right despite the fact that by that time, everyone but Peter, who's actually interested, and Steve, who's too amused by Tony's excitement to leave, has escaped. He gloats to them later about his being right, and they don't even remember what he's talking about.

Dude, I feel like those two need to spend more time watching science TV/playing video games. 8D

And Pym, who will absolutely take those bets because he knows SCIENCE! too!

Only they always end up agreeing on how it'll come out, because they're too smart for their own good.

And then they start geek-talking, and everybody else runs for the hills when they break out the mirror-lasers to test for themselves because Mythbusters GOT IT TOTALLY WRONG!OMG!

Except Thor, who wants to watch because he thinks he could totally get the dwarven smiths to build that s***.

LOL YES Tony and Hank are the reason they have myths revisited shows. They talk about all the mail they get complaining about their experiments, but what they don't mention is that it actually comes exclusively from two whackjobs at some place called Stark Tower.
