Once again my inner nerd is screaming. With days left before the much anticipated Iron Man 2 release, nerds around the world are celebrating, waiting in line on opening weekend,getting their Iron Man masks on, but some fans go even further. One dedicated fan went as far as making an Iron Man arc.
If you haven’t seen the comics, cartoons or even the movie of Iron Man, the arc is basically the heart of Tony Stark, who is Iron Man. The arc is located in the middle of the chest area and most of the time is light up.
Looking at the arc, I want one. But some people might question why I would be going around with a lit-up circle in my chest area. This arc is better suited for guys than for girls.
