Why The Vision Is Radder Than You Think--Chapter 2

I continue to contend that the Vision is radder than you think.

Now, there is one very good reason that you should acknowledge that the Vision is considerably more rad than you may have previously believed...

Excuse me??


Yes, the Vision once took over the entire Earth. Let's see Red Tornado do that...And he did it all while lounging in a comfy chair!!

Plus, he made different holograms of himself to converse with different Avengers...He's a lover:

He's a fighter:

He's Tiger Woods on a day off:

Bonus reason the Vision is so rad?


HE REACHED INSIDE HIS OWN HEAD TO PULL OUT A MALFUNCTIONING CRYSTAL!!! That ain't ripping off no band-aid, folks.

So now, 100% of you must admit, the Vision is radder than you think. To be continued...

The Vision ruled the world in Avengers #253-254 (1985). Ah, those were the glory days your grandmother tells you about...

BONUS RADNESS: The Vision is SO rad, Jim Shooter couldn't even decide how to describe him. On the cover of Avengers #254, he was:

On the title page, he was:

What, no Essential Vision? Masterworks Vision? Showcase Vision? Archive Vision...?

Here's one for you: even the Avegners: United We Stand cartoon could keep him from being cool. He didn't even need the armor suits they were all passing out. (Then again, neither did Tigra, and only Paul Tobin has used her properly from what I hear about non-Tobin writings.) Nobody else can say both of those things.
