I continue to be impressed by Iron Man: Armored Adventures. The Nicktoons show employs some incredibly impressive animation. I wasn't sure I'd like it at first, but it turns out it's sensational. The animation techniques are beautifully done, with an amazing array of depth and texture giving the series a great look. The writing lives up to the art too, and I like the vocal cast a lot; they're not overdone the way some animated series can be. Iron Man's been paired up with Wolverine and the X-Men, another series I love. That's another series I wasn't sure about at first (I thought it was just going to be a tie-in to the Wolverine movie that didn't really pay respect to its comic background), but it's gone ahead and become so much fun, and so aware of its roots in the funny books, that I love it. Between these two, the Brave and the Bold series, and even Smallville, which has found some renewed vitality and energy this late in the game, my DVR's been working overtime. And that's a good thing.
