Line 8:
One of the... less [[Stealth Pun|stellar]] cinematic endeavors by then-fledgling Lucasfilm, it is also the first [[Marvel Comics]] film adaptation to receive wide distribution, which may in part explain why they didn't try again until the late 1990s. Until the release of ''[[Blade]]'', this was the highest-grossing Marvel film property. Really.
With the appearance of an almost-identical Howard in the post-credits [[Stinger]] of 2014's ''[[Guardians of the Galaxy (Film)|Guardians of the Galaxy]]'', speculation is running fast and furious about a possible [[Remake]] set in the [[Marvel Cinematic Universe]].
Compare and contrast ''[[Theodore Rex]]''.

* [[Aliens in Cardiff]]: The movie takes place in [[Cleveland]]. Well, at least it's a change of pace from New York and California.
* [[Asteroid Thicket]]: Briefly seen when the narrator is talking.
Line 32 ⟶ 35:
* [[I Know Kung Faux|I Know Quack Fu]]
* [[Ink Stain Adaptation]]: This movie definitely stained Howard's reputation.
* [[In Name Only]]: The only things in common with the comics -- the characters of Howard and Beverly.
* [[Interspecies Romance]]: Howard and Beverly. He might need a stepstool.
* [[Mars Needs Women]]: While it could just be any human, the Dark Overlord still seems unusually focused on Beverly as a host for his comrades.
