Second Iron Man series from Bendis?

[laireshi]

Those of you following Bendis' tumblr probably saw his post where he said:

man, the launch of iron man is going so well, i might have to launch another!

Apparently he wasn't only teasing. An interview with Axel Alonso on CBR:

Moving to some Marvel news from this week -- Brian Michael Bendis broadly hinted on Tumblr that he may be working on a second "Iron Man" title. Can you confirm anything regarding that at this point?

Alonso: Brian and David are playing the long game with "Invincible Iron Man." When Brian pitched us, he said there was an idea for a sister-title that would spin out of the first germinating in his brain.

What does it say, to you, that Iron Man is a character that Marvel now has enough faith in to handle two series from a top writer? Clearly, he's become huge over the past few years, largely due to the Marvel Studios films, but within comics, it' still surprising to see him at a Spider-Man or Batman level in supporting multiple titles. What convinced Marvel that Iron Man merited a second book?

Alonso: Brian did. [Laughs] I can't say much, but I will say this: The reveal on the last page of "Invincible Iron Man" #1 is big enough that it might need an entire series just to deal with. Retailers -- plan accordingly!

What do you think? Are you excited?
