Review/plot:
It the Living Colossus is the sort of obscure character that Marvel Comics Presents was designed for.

It's creator, Bob O'Bryan, has learned that a former assistant, Otto Ranetti, has stolen his designs and built his own giant robot.

But O'Bryan's is superior.

During the fight, Ranetti reminded O'Bryan that his early movies were derivative (by the way, i would watch all of those movies; i almost think that i already have).

So O'Bryan takes pity on Ranetti for copying his robot.

Silly/cute.
