Another great-looking Iron Man trailer. Interesting to see another suit of armour revealed (I guess Tony decides he needs an emergency more portable suit) and we see a little more of Black Widow (but not much). Most interestingly we see Whiplash’s involvement in the main plot and Hammer recruiting him.
Line of the trailer is either [...]

So the post-Dark Reign landscape of the Marvel universe is slowly starting to take shape, and with the latest solicits on IGN there are a few surprises.
The Heroic Age Magazine #1 cover presents an interesting line up. Some are obvious. We’ve got Black Widow (currently appearing all over the Marvel Universe for several months – [...]

This weekend, we got a look at Iron Man’s upcoming revamp, following on from the events of the last year.
With the revelation that the Skrull virus had nuked Tony’s Extremis upgrades, rendering his current suit a nightmare to control, and now his self-inflicted lobotomy (and the idea of him rebooting his brain from an old backup [...]

The official Iron Man 2 trailer is now up on Apple’s site or around the net.
Looks superb. Seems to have exactly the same tone as the first film and the cast once again looks amazing. And, of course, there’s War Machine
Also interesting to note that Tony’s clearly in a new suit at the [...]

Its a big week for fans of Iron Man. Not only do we get the latest part of the Stark Disassembled storyline, but we also get the final issue of the current series of War Machine. Its worth noting that War Machine should be read before Iron Man, as Iron Man will spoil the finale [...]

After 12 issues, the strong of Tony Stark being on the run from Norman Osborn and H.A.M.M.E.R. has finally come to an end.
I must admit. As much as I really enjoy Fraction’s work on this book, I’m unsure how I actually feel about this conclusion at the moment. The run has been filled with great [...]

A while back I blogged on the trailer for the upcoming Iron Man cartoon, basically saying it looked terrible. Having now caught some of the episodes on Jetix though I feel an update is required.
Its not terrible. In fact, I’m really quite enjoying it.
Obviously, the show plays really loose with the Iron Man mythos. [...]

Dark Reign rumbles on in the Marvel Universe, and it still sucks to be Tony Stark, as he’s quickly shot down after wandering into Russian airspace on his way to the latest of his private facilities.
The person doing the shooting turns out to be Tony’s old friend, the Crimson Dynamo who’s unimpressed by this person [...]

While I’ve by no means been buying more than a fraction of Marvel’s Dark Reign titles, I’ve still been enjoying what I’ve bought a lot, so I figured it made sense to do a more general catchup than focus on specific issues.
Iron Man I’ve talked about in depth on the blog before, so I’ll not [...]

Some good new comics this week along with Flash: Rebirth, the first of which is the long-awaited Power Girl #1.
Its no secret I’ve been looking forward to this. Power Girl’s been a fun character for a while, probably shining most recently in her pre-Infinite Crisis mini-series, that re-established her Earth-2 origin.
The series picks up [...]
