TALES FROM THE KRYPTONIAN

After starting the two posts about Joe Kelly and Doug Mahnke's iconic story Trial By Fire within the pages of JLA I needed a change of pace so I continued working on my two still unfinished RON FRENZ THORSDAY posts from 2023 and the following tribute post for Joe Kubert's wartime comic series. But since I saw that Today is Bob Layton's 73th birthday I decided to write a new post about his many runs on THE INVINCIBLE IRON MAN.

Now the last post I wrote about this subject was in January and longtime followers of the blog already know that usually I write them around his birthday. The reason why I wrote this post at a different date this time is that I could not write a post for Bob Layton in 2024 and to make up for that the post was supposed to be just one of many. Around that time I had started my series on DC Comics SWAMP THING and to avoid having eight SWAMP THING posts in a row - which can get quite exhausting for my readers as well as for myself - I made a few posts about different comicbook series and the first one was that Bob Layton IRON MAN post.

Like I said, that was supposed to be the start of an entire series but then I got side - tracked with a lot of material from Eclipse Comics and First Comics as I very seldom get to write about publishers outside of DC Comics, Marvel Comics, iMage Comics and other mainstream companies.

Coming back to the genesis of this post, with so many posts that I have written about this periods in IRON MAN there is not a lot of material I have not posted so we will cover stuff from Bob Layton's beginnings on the title all the way to his final issues. Attentive blog readers may notice that there are a few pieces of original art that I have used in my posts before but don't worry, I have gone over all of my old Bob Layton posts - three times - to make sure that even IF I am reposting something that it is in a bigger format of higher quality. Anyway, I am not going to write anything about the stories or the history behind it or the careers of the creators involved because quite frankly there is nothing left to write which I have not already touched upon and as frequent blog visitors can attest I just hate to repeat myself. So I am trying to wrap this post up as quickly as possible so that I can write a second Bob Layton post Today.

And if not Today then at least Tomorrow. In any case, that's all of me for now - don't worry there will be more in the bonus section - and I wish Bob Layton a Happy Birthday and Many Returns as he is travelling all over the world. I have no idea where he is currently and I kind of envy him a little bit as somebody who is stuck in a forced exile in a place I never made. But let's not dwell to much on my personal misery and enjoy the wonderful pieces of Bob Layton art I have assembled for this tribute.

We come to a rare YouTube find and one of the big heroes from my misspent childhood because Johnathan Hart is what I always thought a self made millionaire like Tony Stark a. k. a. THE INVINCIBLE IRON MAN would be without the fateful accident that put him on the path to be an ironclad crime fighter. Still fighting crime but without the armour and with an ultimate blow up sex doll like Stefanie Powers as a trophy wife.

She is best known as Jennifer Hart from the cult series Hart To Heart or like it was known in german Hart aber herzlich ( which means something along the lines of Hard but heartfelt ). Stefanie Powers was one of the biggest Sexbomben from my youth based on her role in that hit show.

With her hourglass figure and 36C - 23 - 36 measurements she was one of the MILFS I first had the hots for before the term MILF was introduced.

She was the perfect trophy wife with the pornstar body that everybody dreamed about and wore a lot of lingerie and negligees - mostly when she was in bed with Johnathan which probably were Robert Wagner´s second favourite scenes to film. His favourite scenes where without any doubt the more riskier ones like when they were in the bathtub - naked.

Not that the audience got to see much of it since the good parts were covered by foam but I´m sure Robert was all over every inch of her body.

They always said their relationship was only platonic but I can´t believe Robert dicktamed a living blow up sex doll like Stephanie not even once.

Speaking about absolute men milking machines, when I was watching the show I didn´t know how Jennifer and Johnathan met but because she had more curves than the Nürnburgring and her whole attitute where she would use phrases like " Hello, sailor. " ( granted, I had no idea what that meant but it sounded like something a bad girl would say ) I assumed she had worked as a prostitute for the rich, famous and well hung, the main attraction of a show like the Moulin Rouge or the Crazy Horse, a famous actress for porn movies or an exotic dancer who got naked in front of a crowd of drunk truckers in a seedy bar where Johnathan discovered her and fulfilled every guy´s dream : marrying a hooker, pornstar or stripper.

Well, I did some research and thanks to the internet I know that there are episodes that explore their backstory. Of course my phantasie of Jennifer earning a living by doing what she was born to do - get naked and slamfuck giant cocks six ways to Sunday until they are completely dry - didn´t turn out to be true. Instead Jennifer had a less honest job working as a reporter and their story started when Jennifer failed to get an interview with Johnathan. Which for me is even harder to believe than that she didn´t work as a callgirl or stripper because which straight guy in his right mind could refuse an interview with an ultimate men - milking machine like Stephanie Powers ? I mean, even if someone could resist her charms she would just wrap those endless legs around his neck and deepthroat the dickens out of him before relentlessly pounding his cock into submission. So according to my head canon IF Jennifer did not work as a hooker, porn film star or stripper - which does not rule out the possibility that she worked her way through college in these professions - she finally managed to get her interview with Johnathan by surprising him - completely naked - in his hotel bedroom taking oral dick - tation.

After a weeklong ejaculation sensation squirt orgy Johnathan married her on the spot because he knew that so well trained nympho sluts who are complete oral deepthroat sex freaks and well versed in every known position and can endure such rigorous drilling are very hard to cum by.

mike hammer

Speaking about ultimate sexbombs on Mike Hammer, longtime readers might recall that I very often mentioned the so - called Hammerettes which are women with a breast size that would have easily gotten them a feature role in a Russ Meyer movie but so far I have not seen any of them in the german episodes and I wonder if that is just bad luck or by design to avoid the usual YouTube censorship shenanigans. In any case it's tragic because the Hammerettes were one of the distinguishing features of the show who always made the episodes that much more memorable.

One I still vividly remember was episode six from season two of Mike Hammer called Bonecrush in which a 22 year old Janine Turner played a nymphomanic ( aren´t all women in this series nymphomanic, especially the buxom Hammerettes ? ) horny sexbomb which she had no problem pulling off thanks to Janine´s bonerinducing 40C - 22 - 37 measurements.

Every normal, red - blooded guy would have done her in a minute but as always in the show since Mike Hammer knew her for such a long time he saw her more like a little sister than a born for porn sexual partner. One of Janine Turner´s breast scenes is when she tries to get Mike aroused wearing a super ventilated red shirt. That shirt had so many cleavage windows that it was basically just a lot of thin stripes which only barely covered her spectacular breasts leaving not much to the imagination.

When Janine´s character didn´t manage to get Mike aroused she was - understandably - miffed so when Mike´s only remaining friend in the police department ... at least his only male friend. As he seems to have an unlimited supply of female acquaintances willing to do whatever Mike Hammer needs them to do in the hopes of getting a big taste of ye olde patented 150 percent satisfucktion guaranteed Mike Hammer meatpole.

Like the thirsty, big breasted real life Power Girl below played by none other than PLAYBOY´s Playmate Of The Month for March in 1982, blonde 34C - 23 - 33 blow up sex doll extreme Karen Lorre formerly Witter ( you can read more about the buxom beauty in the big finale to my Hugh Hefner tribute series from 2020 ) and whom regular blog readers might remember since she appeared in a few episodes of Mike Hammer, most notably in the episode Kill Devil with her famous picture album scene.

Sexy Karen also had bit parts on Trapper John M. D., Cheers, The Vineyard, The X - Files, Sabrina the Teenage Witch, NYPD Blue and Malcolm in the Middle. She also appeared in the movie Another Chance.

From 1990 to 1994 Karen had a contract role as the 4th Tina Lord on ABC´s soap opera One Life to Live, for which she was nominated for a 1991 Soap Opera Digest Award for Outstanding Female Newcomer in Daytime.

And to close the part about Busenwunder Karen Witter she later played Nemesis in Hercules : The Legendary Journeys, in the seventh episode.

Coming back to Janine Turner´s character, after Mike Hammer spurns her proposition to assume the position ( or more likely the positions since she intends to have sexual intercourse with Mike many positions in all night long ) Mike Hammer´s only remaining - male - friend in the police departement walks in and she blatantly asks him if his old friend Mike has some performance problems with his little Mike. Which is the only reasonable explanation for not slambanging Janine Turner´s brains out.

As my faithful readers know I am a huge fan of Northern Exposure, one of THE best tv shows that ever aired and subsequently of Janine Turner.

Sadly there are not a lot of clips from Northern Exposure on YouTube and the few I found have all been deleted. What is also difficult to come by are performances by Janine Turner where she can really show her stuff.

Another erotic highlight of her career is TAI PAN in which Janine Turner doesn´t wear only one, nor just two but at least three different dresses that show off her breast features. And when I say " show off her breast features " I mean expose her upper body completely while still managing to cover her nipples. It´s like she´s advertising motorboating and the only thing that is missing is a sign that reads " Best double breasted dick massages in town. Special offer : bring one friend and get a deepthroat blowjob for free. No age check. " I have no idea how the costume person got away with this or if it is even historically accurate and I don´t care.

Speaking of Janine Turner's mouthwatering mammaries, as far as casting her in a superhero movie - when she was in her prime of course - while it is not based on an existing comicbook she would have been perfect for the role of Majestic of the spoof series Society Of Virtue, especially if she would be wearing the original costume - which leaves nothing to the imagination so Janine could have displayed her flawless pornstar body here - instead of the prudish lame outfit Majestic gets in later episodes.

As for which episode I would adapt, it's either the one where Janine Turner gets plenty of screen time showcasing Majestic's breast costume - as well as her erection guaranteeing gazongas - from all angles or a new one. This would be a follow up to the episode called " XXX " in which the team surprises a group of actors shooting a porn movie parody of them and decide to take over to make the movie more realistic. As one might imagine this new episode would show the team actually shooting the porn movie and the main focus would - of course - be hot Janine Turner.

It goes without saying that as the director of this episode I would have insisted on rehearsing all the sex scenes before shooting and at Janine's request this would have taken place at a five star hotel at an undisclosed location as she knew that shooting a bonerinducing scene with too many people around always ended up with everybody taking turns at taming her. It's a dirty job but somebody has got to do it and I would not only have made the sacrifice to slam - bang Janine's brains out six ways - and six days - to Sunday during these gruelling sex scene rehearsal marathons I would also have taken the job of stunt cock to shield her from perverts.

As in previous posts we are having a hammer themed double feature : an episode of Mike Hammer followed by one of Sledge Hammer although I fear that this will be our last one since that was our last german dubbed Mike Hammer episode while I still have a plethora of Sledge Hammer in the german dubbing. In any case, this is a good one with Dori Doreau on a date with Adam Ant ( the older readers might remember him ) and Anne - Marie Martin is wearing one of these f - word me dresses that women wear to make sure their date is getting a huge boner. One of these black numbers where the cleavage is already a preview of the following nightly activities and where you know she is going to slam - fuck your brains out all night long and ruining you for all other women.

IF I WAS A HAMMER I'D HAMMER ANNE - MARIE MARTIN IN THE MORNING

One of the main attractions of Sledge Hammer - besides the humour and the gratuitous violence - is of course none other than longlegged Anne - Marie Martin who perfectly depicts Sgt. Dori Doreau, the hardbody of the law with legs for miles almost up to her chin, who really could've made a fortune as a real life hooker or at least working the stripper pole. We all dreamed of Anne assuming the position ( and when I say " the position " I mean of course all positions ) so we could give her a full cavity search.

The canadian blow up sex doll honed her Playmate Of The Year body as a horse riding world championship contender for the US so she is an expert breaking in wild broncos, taming horny breeding stallions ( her speciality is dicktaming two legged breeding stallions with an insatiable big third leg ), the oral preparation for natural insemination and dressage riding.

This comes in handy in my favorite episode, Model Dearest in which Dori Doreau goes undercover as a bikini model which thoroughbred stud mare Anne Marie Martin pulls off easily thanks to her bonerinducing bikinibody.

No wonder the horny sheik who " buys " Dori can't help but comment : " She will be a wife AND a mistress ! " when he sees her in all her glory.

Apropos Dori being auctioned off to become the love slave of a rich pasha, with Sledge Hammer's innate bumbling nature - remember that he almost blows her cover when he sees her model pictures at the fake model agency - I always fantasized about what would happen if Sledge would arrive too late and Dori would have been already shipped away to a future position of living party favour for the sheik's many horny guests.

Especially at the uninhibited sex orgies his business partners would be invited to where ultimate sexbombs with enticing stripper moves that would make even the most seasoned porn super stars blush performed steamy stripteases that made Salome's famous " dance of the seven veils " look like a Kindergarten dance apt for the whole family by comparison.

As a boob lover the sheik's personal harem - which is where Dori Doreau was supposed to end up - was full of exceptionally big breasted women who were pumped two times - first full of very potent illegal sex drugs and a second time by the huge monstercocks of the sheik's guests who were totally out of control ganging up on the women assaulting their holes up to four schlongs at the same time and stretching them out.

Now the reason why Sledge would come too late - no pun intended - to prevent Dori Doreau being shipped off as a penetration pleasure pet was that he and the task force he assembled stumbled upon the agency's secret underground " taming facility " also known as " Deepthroat High " where the unsuspecting models were " broken in " by the henchmen of the agency's boss ( who were the elite of the most brutal serial rapists around the world ) before getting special classes by phillipino prostitutes about how to spread their legs and milk schlongs dry until the last drop.

During their " taming period " the hapless girls were also used for " recreational purposes " by the model agency's male employees on their lunch breaks and after work who were encouraged to use this perk as often as they could since they were usually quite brutal and relentless which - according to the boss - sped up their indoctrination process.

To that end a lot of the girls where blindfolded and handcuffed to beds in a soundproof chamber so when Sledge Hammer and his fellow police men came upon these rooms with rows upon rows of beds that had naked exotic Busenwunders from every corner of the world that could easily triplicate the sales numbers of any adult magazine ( since the whole scam was to trap girls who could be Playmates Of The Year ) lying on their backs and being totally incapacitated while spreading their legs - who on top of that had just been hosed down and oiled up so they were ready to be used and abused in any which way - a few of the cops could not help themselves and started " sampling the merchandise quality ".

Of course Sledge would have none of that - although he was seriously tempted to participate in the impromptu fuck marathon when he came across a woman who looked like Dori Doreau's big - breasted younger twin only with longer legs and was so pumped up on sex drugs that she immediately started giving him a double breasted deepthroat massage.

After handcuffing her to a bed while he was on the brink of squirting like a fire hose he tried his best to prevent the cops from further using the already abused girls. But there were a lot of these rooms and he could not be everywhere at the same time so it took Sledge a while to bring things under control and by the time all the girls had been freed and put into busses that were supposed to bring them to the next police station the bad guys had already fled the country with dicktaming Dori in tow.

Although most of the cops drove them to the nearest subway underpass so nobody could hear the girls scream at the top of their lungs while the police men took turns slam - fucking the sluts senseless against the glass.

Needless to say that by this point Dori Doreau had already been gagged, hogtied and put on a freighter to the Middle East. Because the sheik was so smitten with Dori he took it upon himself to dicktame her and spent the next weeks relentlessly drilling every orifice of her body making her go through all of the positions of the Kama Sutra, the Ananga Ranga, the complete Tantra Sex Bible, Joy Of Sex and the vulcan Pon Farr sex guide.

Thankfully Dori Doreau had spend some time at the vice squad as bait for serial rapists and since her partners always " accidentally " arrived after the perverted perps had their way with her and she could not offer any resistance when the cops took turns sexually assaulting her for the rest of the night she managed to bear the pervert's powerful pussy pounding.

She even managed to escape by deepthroating the chef eunuch until she had successfully reversed his castration - which luckily was of a chemical instead of a surgical nature - and then slam - fucking him into a coma.

Speaking about wet sex dream Anne - Marie Martin's flawless body, there are sadly only a few episodes where she gets to spotlight it like in the pilot episode where she disarms a perp with an mindblowing high kick exposing her perfectly shaped legs or in episode 12 of the second season called Icebreaker where she has a date with Adam Ant in an incredible strapless black dress. Another one which eluded me for the longest time is one where she and Sledge go to a sauna to interrogate an informant and because of the hot steam their clothes shrink later. Especially Dori Doreau's long skirt turns into a micro skirt revealing Anne - Marie Martin's gorgeous gams. Boy, who said that she has legs for miles wasn't kidding.

But now I finally found it, it's episode 9 of the first season called Magnum Farce which is of course a spoof of the second Dirty Harry movie with Clint Eastwood titled Magnum Force and Anne - Marie Martin's short leg revealing scene is around the six minute mark.

I have mentioned Sledge Hammer - and especially canadian Sexbombe Anne - Marie Martin - a few times on the blog over the years but newer blog visitors might want to check out my Bill Ward tribute post in 2022 where you can not only find an episode of Ayer Nomas about the show but also more stuff about the Sledge Hammer comic by Marvel Comics.
