Iron Man Armored Adventures Episode 46 Doomsday Review

This episode has a few minutes that appear to be missing from the Nicktoons Website version but I shall aim to do my best to review. This review will contain spoilers for Iron Man Armored Adventures Season 2 Episode 20 Doomsday.


Episode Synopsis.

Howard Stark and Gene Khan reach Latveria for the ninth ring guardian, the Grey Gargoyle, but Doctor Doom beats them to the ninth ring, which can open portals. Howard Stark gets captured, but the Mandarin and Iron Man have no choice but to team up, as Rhodey as War Machine and Pepper, now donning a suit of armor of her own, deal with the dimensional disturbance. Iron Man manages to get the rings and hide them from Doom but also refuse to give them to the Mandarin, weary of his past backstabbing.

After a false battle with a Doom Bot, The Mandarin and Iron Man find Howard Stark, who has been trapped. Yet it is a ruse, with Doctor Doom using them as a sacrifice to appease a demon, in exchange for the slain souls of his family members. Yet, the exchange was for pure souls, which the Mandarin appears to be not. Iron Man reluctantly gives Mandarin back the other rings and he transports them out.

The battle occurs, with a combined effort from Howard Stark, Iron Man, and Mandarin, Doom is trapped in the trap and taken by the same demon he tried to swindle his deal out of to parts unknown. Mandarin leaves, having nine of the ten rings.

Reunion with Howard Stark being officially alive and him vowing to take back Stark Industries.

Episode Review

Pretty good episode and really an episode that had a sense of forward moment. I still consider this Doctor Doom to be one of my favorites outside of the comics, with being below of the Avengers Earth's Mightiest Heroes version of Doctor Doom.

Doom bots, really had to do that at least once. And Doctor Doom just being an absolute boss in this episode. "KNEEL BEFORE DOOM!" General Zod has to be getting his legal team on the hoard for this blatant show of plagiarism.

Ending really was a nice moment, a happy ending for once. And the uneasy interaction between Iron Man and Mandarin was really a good point in this episode. Given what the Mandarin has pulled in the past, you cannot really blame them.

Some great action with some amazing visuals, leading to a pretty solid episode of Iron Man for what I was able to see.

Final Thoughts and Rating

8.5/10 for a good episode. You can watch Iron Man Armored Adventures Episode 46, at least in part, on the Nicktoons Network.
