Avengers Age Of Ultron: 10 Outrageous Comic Moments That Won't Be Used
2. Iron Man/Black Widow Sex Tape
A number of comic book storylines over the years have referred to there being some sexual chemistry between Tony Stark, aka, Iron Man, and Natasha Romanova, aka, Black Widow, but in the Ultimate Universe, Mark Millar went ahead and actually paired the two off until Natasha betrayed the group and was killed by Hawkeye as revenge for murdering his family (see No. 6 on the list). Still, up until that point, these two consenting adults were clearly engaged in a romantic and physical relationship, but any actual sexual intercourse was just implied, not explicitly shown. That changed during the opening chapter of Jeph Loeb and Joe Madureiras Ultimates 3 series, when reader sees Tony and Natasha getting it on as part of a sex tape that has been released to the media. While one could argue that comics stopped being marketed to children years ago, it is still a bit of a shock to see such mature content so unashamedly put out there as part of a superhero series. The same could be said for these movies: they might be rated PG-13, but theres no chance they would ever feature such mature, adult content as a sex tape involving two of the main characters since a fair number of children are still part of the films core audience.
