The New Captain America/Iron Man Slashy Moments List

[muccamukk]

In for the last two years, this list has been maintained by the totally awesome crimsonquills (original here, with reposts here and here). Ze has, however, migrated to another fandom, leaving the comm. I have volunteered to maintain it from here on in.

ETA: The list has been moved. See the sidebar of the comm for details as to where. All scans hosted by me are taken down. A big thanks to everyone who helped me put together and maintain the list over the years.

It's been a marathon comic-reading weekend...
Captain America v.1 #112: The entire issue is Tony reliving Cap's glory days in a sort of eulogy... but this in particular: Tony nearly breaks down upon hearing of Steve's death.

[muccamukk]

Okay, how many funerals has Steve had? There's that one, the one in the late four hundred run of volume one, one during Heroes Reborn, and the one after CW?

I... think that's it. More than Tony Stark and less than Duncan McLeod.

[penumbren]

ROFL! I love the analogy there. I'm not sure if he actually makes it to a funeral with this one -- I won't be reading the follow-up issue until tomorrow. Tony rambles on and on and on and on about Cap's adventures while he's "closing his file"... after the moment I posted up above.

Somewhere, I hope there's someone who makes a living just out of making gravestones for superheroes. They'd be rich. Seriously. "What, Mr. Stark again? That's the second one this year..."

[muccamukk]

I wouldn't dare spoil what happens at in the next issue, save that it's hilarious and awesome.

I think when I did the sweep through the early stuff that you're doing now, I wasn't looking for slashy moments, then when I was I could never find anything again. I appreciate the time you're taking to pick them out.

[penumbren]

Ooh, now I'm tempted to stay up too late reading. Again. Darn you. :)

I'm having a blast reading the early stuff. I'm fairly OCD about new obsessions interests, so a few months ago I managed to acquire the original Tales, Iron Man, Cap, and Avengers volumes. Now that I've figured out ComicRack enough to sort it all by year, it's going a bit quicker... and in between fits of giggling at the dialogue (oh, lord, the dialogue....) it's been great fun seeing all the little 'moments' these two have had.

[penumbren]

You're right, the next issue was hilarious and awesome. I absolutely love the image of Cap on his motorcycle, coming up over gravestones... XD

I'm not sure that this counts as truly slashy, but I wonder if it's not worth putting up there anyway: Tony wasn't the first one to recognize him, but his was the first voice Cap actually heard. (Avengers v.1 #4) It's certainly a nice setup for any number of flashback lines in fic... :)

[penumbren]

Avengers v.1 #82: Even in a room large enough for eight Avengers and Daredevil, Steve can't stay away from Tony.

Avengers v.1 #93: What personal space? (And where exactly is Iron Man's other hand, anyway?)
Same issue: Cap tries to raise Iron Man's spirits while supporting his weight.

And a change of pace. (These ended up kinda... big. If you want them differently, I can redo them. :)
New Avengers v.2 #1: Steve tries to convince the New Avengers to officially reform. Tony has his back. (And the NAs can't have Tony.) One Two

[muccamukk]

I actually already added that one.

[penumbren]

Oh, nice. :) I just read it last night and laughed the whole way through that conversation.

Would Tony Stark limp and lifeless in his kidnapper's arms and Cap leading the interception squad (http://i972.photobucket.com/albums/ae203/ghostsundermybed/damselindistress.png) count? The other Avengers are there, but Cap's shield in that panel personally made me gleeful <3 (It's in Avengers #69)
Also, the people making this comic apparently have one hell of a kink for Tony Stark limp and lifeless in someone's arms. They're not that different from the Fandom that way.

From the same issue: Thor and Steve rushing to Tony's hospital bed (http://i972.photobucket.com/albums/ae203/ghostsundermybed/hosto.png)
And from the next: sure, we'll save the world, but release Tony Stark first (http://i972.photobucket.com/albums/ae203/ghostsundermybed/sparehislife.png)
(not sure if they count, since that's the sort of thing they do for everyone, but hey.)

I nominate a total married moment from Spider-Man: The Other! Weird things are happening around Peter. Tony wants to run tests, Cap agrees with Tony, Peter is Not Surprised. (http://pics.livejournal.com/dictionary00/pic/0000s3p0)

[dictionary00.livejournal.com]

Whoops, meant to add that it's from Marvel Knights Spider-Man #22. Though that entire arc is love, minus the creepy-beating-on-Peter bits. And I adore the art in Friendly Neighbourhood Spider-Man.

[pindrops.livejournal.com]

Also from Invincible Iron man 26: Steve sends Tony his old armors. (http://i783.photobucket.com/albums/yy113/fanlurk/InvincibleIronManv5026-019.jpg)(good thing, because transport couldn't have been cheap)

[pindrops.livejournal.com]

These are all from Execute program, just before Civil War.

Steve and Tony have an arguments over methods (http://i783.photobucket.com/albums/yy113/fanlurk/capironman/iim9-1.jpg). Staring ensues. That's Invincible Iron Man 9, then in the next issue Steve stops Tony (http://i783.photobucket.com/albums/yy113/fanlurk/capironman/iim10-1.jpg) from overusing his blast and Tony nearly chokes him (http://i783.photobucket.com/albums/yy113/fanlurk/capironman/iim10-2.jpg). Unconfortable staring in different directions ensue.

Then more stuff happens, generally bad. And then Tony dyes his hair blond.

Tony is calm until he sees Steve in danger (http://i783.photobucket.com/albums/yy113/fanlurk/capironman/iim12-1.jpg). The solution (again) is to stop his heart (http://i783.photobucket.com/albums/yy113/fanlurk/capironman/iim12-2.jpg)to save (http://i783.photobucket.com/albums/yy113/fanlurk/capironman/iim12-3.jpg) Cap. (these last three from Invincible Iron Man 12)

[pindrops.livejournal.com]

Also from Invincible Iron Man 21: Hologram Tony talks about how Steve and Thor were important to him (http://i783.photobucket.com/albums/yy113/fanlurk/capironman/iim21.jpg)

[pindrops.livejournal.com]

And finally, from Avengers Prime #1: Tony and Steve start their first serious discussion since they both came back from the dead/coma. Steve is not sure if Tony should be trusted with the armor (http://i783.photobucket.com/albums/yy113/fanlurk/capironman/ap1-1.jpg) (this particular scene ties beautifully with the moment I linked from IIM 26, apparently whatever happens in Avengers Prime is enough to convince Steve that Tony can be trusted with many armors. or two comics that a month between them, I'm sure this was planned). Tony and Steve get start shouting (http://i783.photobucket.com/albums/yy113/fanlurk/capironman/ap1-2.jpg) at each other until Thor tells them to play nice or leave (http://i783.photobucket.com/albums/yy113/fanlurk/capironman/ap1-3.jpg).

[pindrops.livejournal.com]

Okay, the right link for that scene should be: http://i783.photobucket.com/albums/yy113/fanlurk/capironman/InvincibleIronManv5026-019.jpg

[penumbren]

All pre-Nomad (barely):
Avengers v.1 #125: Cap's cleared of murder charges and Iron Man can't stop touching him.
Avengers v.1 #126: When Thor gets upset about Cap's brooding, Iron Man tells him that Cap's been hurt worse than the whole country.
Giant-Size Avengers #1: The earliest hug-and-fly?. (This is immediately after Avengers #126.)

Post-Nomad (Finally!!):
Avengers v.1 #131: Tony thinks Steve's new Nomad costume looks great. (*still snickering at said costume*)

[muccamukk]

Oh, Christ, that costume. It's one of the many reasons that I pretend that 85% of Englhart didn't happen.

[muccamukk]

I think I'm going to hold off on the Avengers Prime stuff until they get to the kissing and making up bit. There's just too many scenes of them yelling at each other.

[muccamukk]

Thanks for all the links. I'll update when I get a chance (seems to be working out to once a week or so).

[penumbren]

It's like a walking ad for 70s gay porn. Bad 70s gay porn.

[muccamukk]

I maintain that when he grew in that awful moustache in CW, he should have switched back to this costume as well. Just to complete the image.

[penumbren]

That would definitely have settled any doubts that Tony might've had about him...

[penumbren]

Avengers v.1 #145: Even the villains know how protective Iron Man is of Cap.
Avengers v.1 #148: Iron Man feels really good because he and Cap make such a good team.

Marvel Adventures: Avengers v.1 #5: No need to discuss things, just fly-and-cuddle.
Marvel Adventures: Avengers v.1 #18: Cap always knows what Iron Man is up to. One Two
Marvel Adventures: Avengers v.1 #23: Does sharing the "Avengers Assemble!" cry count?

Ultimates v.1 #10: Not entirely sure about this one, but... Tony's the first person Steve thinks of when he realises a bomb's about to go off.

Ultimate Iron Man v.1 #2: He grew up on the run and in hiding, but Tony still had posters of Cap.
