Yes that pose!
Wondering if the cartoon first showed it or if someone like Ditko or Romita drew it first in the comics

Cei-U! I summon the great big hang-up!

I’m re reading ASM from the start now so I will find it I’m sure and confirm the issue and whether it’s Ditko or Jazzy John

I never, ever heard of Marvel Super Action; was this book is any good to read? Popular? and what extent this book brings to the reader?

Has Iron Man ever taken on Kingpin? Either in a physical encounter (I bet that wouldn't last long) or perhaps in a corporate sense as Tony Stark?
If not a battle (of any kind), has there ever been any kind of encounter between them?

If he has, it happened after 1986, the last year of Marvel's history about which I can speak with any confidence.
Cei-U! I summon the clash of the corporate titans!

You know how 1970s comics would say "Continued on page following" before running an advertisement? Was that some legal requirement? I can't imagine someone reading the book and seeing a page of ads halfway through thinking, "Oh, I guess the story is over." and then closing the book without turning any more pages.

I did that a lot back then and still do that today and that's annoyed me a lot and it's also frustrating to deal with.

No, it wasn't a legal requirement. I don't know the exact reason but if I had to hazard a guess, I'd say it had to do with so many ads in comics of the '40s, '50s, and early '60s being in the form of comics themselves (Captain Tootsie and the like). The notice probably began as a simple courtesy to avoid confusing readers and eventually ossified into a convention.
Cei-U! I summon the idle speculation!

Not a battle, but Fisk and Stark were co-owners of Damage Control in the original mini-series (Stark sold his share in the second, because he didn't want to be in business with Fisk).

Interesting ... and that's makes sense to me!

Probably this has been asked before, but is there a way to read any of the '70s DC implosion comics that were ready to be published but weren't, other than the photocopies/ashcans of 'Cancelled Comics Cavalcade' that is? I'd think they could've put out some of these for collectors at some point for Vixen #1, Mister Miracle #26, Shade #9, Ragman #6 etc. I do know I have what would've been Showcase #105 (Deadman) in a $1-sized Adventure Comics at least. I see b&w scans on a few blogs of just the covers like these on Dial B For Blog...

The story that would have been in Shade #9 (and then appeared in Cancelled Comics Cavalcade #2) is included in the first Steve Ditko Omnibus published by DC.

Some of them only had a few pages penciled and some had only cover mock-ups. The first collection had the finished stories, as I recall, and the second had more fragmentary books.
