Thank you for remembering Friday. One of the cutest, funniest little A.I.'s in Marvel history, and no one remembers her. Thank you. :~)

Cute, perhaps.

Funny, certainly.

But little? Only when she wasn't at home in her smartship body. :)

Was that the same Friday?

Possibly not. I was thinking of the one from Power Pack. Was there another?

Between issues #53 and #74 of Iron Man volume 2, Tony had a little A.I. named Friday. She replaced Jocasta as his majordomo-slash-assistant when she finally got a body. Friday was, sadly, a minor character, mostly used a visual gag (she'd look like secretary when taking notes, einstein when doing math, etc.) for the book.

I'm assuming that system:starkwire.com (aka "Fri") is that Friday.

Ahhh... I was not reading the book then.

I guess he finally ran out of classical writers (HOMER, PLATO, VIRGIL...)

(I hope this isn't going too off-topic...)

Sadly, I wasn't reading the book back when he was using HOMER -- aside from the Iron Man #300 back issue, I only know HOMER from the cartoon -- or those others.

I only know HOMER from the Iron Manual :)

As I understand it, PLATO & VIRGIL were used in Force Works, which I never read.
