If Only the Other Quasars Could be This Cool...

From Iron Man (Vol. 1) #79, courtesy of Mike Friedrich and George Tuska, here's......QUASAR!

Watch him "punk" Iron Man!

Have you ever seen such a cool Quasar before?!

Wendell is cool. But I like the sound effect 'PUNK'. It should be used more when somebody hits iron man.

Neat, but why was he called Quasar? Would Bobo not be more appropriate?

Despite the flak he's taken elsewhere, I think Vince Colletta was a great inker for George Tuska.

There's something funny with Quasar's teeth in this picture, though.

Not even close. This Quasar is cooler: http://flickr.com/photos/16313300@N00/172166387 .

Also since the temperature is directly proportional to the mass of the quasar PKS 0405-385 is the coolest quasar that I'm aware of, though if someone has found a cooler one I wouldn't be shocked.

I believe Quasar #42 has a subplot where anyone who ever took Quasar's name would retroactively become a primo badass. And look like the Absorbing Man with Thundarr's teeth. try it: start calling yourself Quasar. you'll turn into this guy.

Or a lesbian, I guess.

OK, I concede. This guy would be the coolest, Quasar from the Shi'ar Imperial Guard comes in second . . . after that I draw a blank.

Here's his first problem: quasars aren't from the future.

Love Tuska. Every now and then I come across some little turd talking trash about his work, but I just remind myself there's no point getting angry at someone whose testicles have yet to drop...

The head aside, anyone can see that crappy scan is from a Marvel Masterworks or other crummy reprint because half of Vinnie's lines are lost.
