Invicible Iron Man news

There's been a lot of interviews with Bendis lately about his upcoming Tony solo (who else isn't over the news? I can't wait!).

The first issue will be out in October. Four months seems so long now.

What we know:
- he will be uninverted
- it will deal with SIM and the recent canon
- it will also deal with Gillen
- new supporting cast, new villains
- new armour which can adapt to be all the previous armours?
- Tony will be the central figure of the new Marvel universe
- ...probably something else I'm forgetting at the moment, tbh.

But the reason I'm making this post is this: a live chat with Bendis has just finished. And this is very relevant to all of us:
Bendis was asked if he'd touch on Tony's relationship with Steve. His answer?
"I like their relationship. I think they challenge each other in ways others cannot. With Steve's new status quo, there are new aspects to explore."



They have also posted concept art of the armour:

Of particular note, I like how in the first link, Bendis talks about his experience writing The Confession and how that reflects how he approaches Tony's character in a focused solo title rather than his usual team books (Avengers or GotG).

Steve's new status quo means Steve stays old and I don't read Marvel comics. I mean what the hell? Why? I am excited about Tony and all that goes with it. But why the hell does Steve have to be old? So no, I am not happy about that part at all. :(

I am so, so excited for this. I love Tony and feel like he's finally in good hands again. :)

I really like that armour design! Especially the faceplate. The faceplates on Tony's suit almost always look really odd to me when they're retracted, but this one looks badass whether it's down OR up! I like! (also that sketch of him in midair YAY man I wish I had an iron man suit)

yaaay~ *spins about happily*

Man, that morphing armor sounds really interesting. So much potential!
