Friday Night Fights: Take It Outside, But Be Nice.

Before Civil War, there was Avengers (vol. 1) #168...

Listen to Iron Man, Cap! He's all about "personal privacy" and secret identities!

And that's just the page 7 undercard. Much like Road House, that early action is just the shrimp cocktail in a Five Course Dinner of Beatdown. I won't bore you with the blah blah blahs leading up to Starhawk confronting Michael the Enemy at his house, except to interject that Starhawk comes dressed to rumble and Michael never gets out of his tennis instructor gear.



See? Just like Road House! Starhawk/Swayze's going to take this fight "outside" while never leaving the den:

Unfortunately, carrying your wife around in your subconscious is just asking for a punch in the teeth, and sure enough...



Then it's all over but the finishing move (or in this case, the obliteration/conversion/shredding move):



But then, with a twist Dalton couldn't pull on Jimmy's torn larynx, Evil Tennis Pro makes Starhawk all better.



Be nice, indeed. Next time, Starhawk, leave your missus at home. Bahlactus doesn't dole out the do-overs.
