In every Look Back, we examine a comic book issue from 10/25/50/75 years ago (plus a wild card every month with a fifth week in it). This time around, as September is a five-week month, our “wild card” look back sends us back to September 1963 for the debut of Iron Man’s red and gold armor. It’s important to note that when Marvel launched a superhero line of comics in 1961 with Fantastic Four #1, the company’s most popular comic books were monster and science fiction comic books that were filled with mostly done-in-one stories, with Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko likely doing a lot of the plotting of their respective stories in books like Strange Tales, Tales to Astonish and Journeys Into Mystery.One of the major examples of this is Iron Man, whose initial origin is excellent, but it doesn’t particularly work well for an ongoing superhero comic feature, until September 1963’s Tales of Suspense #48 got things back on track with a brand-new armor by Steve Ditko.
