American version of Kid Icarus Cartridge
Eventually, I'm going to scan my own cartridge and replace this image with a better one.
Asian version of Kid Icarus Cartridge
Thanks to site reader Sloppy Joe for pointing me in the direction of an ebay auction where I found this scan.
Game Boy version of Kid Icarus
This is Kid Icarus: Of Myths & Monsters for Game Boy. Apparently, the Canadian version, but the American version has the same exact artwork. This game wasn't released in Japan.

Nintendo Power Top Secret Passwords Guide: Kid Icarus
Password Guide Page 1
Password Guide Page 2
This is where I got those level passwords in the "Codes" section of this shrine. (Sorry that Page 1 is crooked, but it's extremely difficult to flatten this book out enough to scan it and I don't want to damage it.) I have a ton of my own passwords from playing the game, but I was too lazy to plug them in and figure out what passwords went to what levels at the time I originally made that page. Eventually, someday if I figure out where I put my passwords, I'll scan them all and put them up.
Kid Icarus: Of Myths & Monsters Nintendo Power Review
Nintendo Power Review Page 1: Intro
Nintendo Power Review Page 2: Level 1-1
Nintendo Power Review Page 3: Level 1-2
Nintendo Power Review Page 4: Level 1-3
This is Nintendo Power's original 4-page coverage for the Game Boy Kid Icarus sequel. It contains complete maps of the first three stages as well as artwork of Pit and the Eggplant Wizard that cannot (to my knowledge) be found anywhere else.
Nester's Adventures: Kid Icarus: Of Myths & Monsters Episode
Nester's Adventures Page 1
Nester's Adventures Page 2
One issue after the review, Nintendo Power did a Nester's Adventures comic based on Kid Icarus: Of Myths & Monsters. I had described this on the "Other" page of this shrine, but because the site was originally made for Geocities, I could not at that time upload the entire comic (mainly because of file size issues). Here, finally, is the complete comic. Kind of cheesey as Nester often was, although that harp joke did make me laugh out loud. Also of note, this would be the last Nester comic that was two pages long. After this one, they were reduced to one page.
Nintendo Power Club Trading Cards

Kid Icarus: Of Myths & Monsters Card Back
Kid Icarus: Of Myths & Monsters Card Collector's Edition
Because I was subscribed to Nintendo Power years ago, I used to get these trading cards with each monthly issue. There was a card for Kid Icarus: Of Myths & Monsters, although there was never one for the NES Kid Icarus. I also somehow got a "Collector's Edition" version of this card. The only differences are that the Collector's Edition has those words printed in "shiny gold" letters and the letters in "Super Power Club" are shiny gold, too. Unfortunately, my scanner cannot pick up on the shiny gold color and it turned out black, but you get the idea. The card is also slightly thicker than the normal trading cards. The back is identical to the normal card, so I didn't bother to scan it.
