In the most recent issue of Iron Man:

Tony Stark is introduced to the 27-year-old daughter of a rich Japanese
businessman.  She's stunningly beautiful, but then *all* women in comic
books are stunningly beautiful.

Indeed.  

Anyway, at the time of introduction, she's wearing a T-shirt.  In the
center of the T-shirt is a baby chick.  Above the chick are the words
"Piyo Piyo".

(puts head in hands)  Oh dear...

Her name is Rumiko.

The purse looks familiar, too.

And I thought Star Trek had a bad way with anime puns...

Just thought I'd mention it.

Just a thought: Where is everyone anyway?  Things have been damn silent
over here of late...
