Preview: “World War Hulk Prologue: World Breaker” #1

Comic Book Resources has your first look at World War Hulk Prologue: World Breaker #1, due out in May from Marvel Comics.

From CBR:

Hulk is coming and no power on Earth can stop him from getting revenge on the Illuminati! What events have led up to the super-human battle-to-end-all-battles? As Hulk’s great stone ship approaches the planet, he prepares for the war on the horizon by reliving past conflicts with Iron Man, The Fantastic Four, Doctor Strange and the Inhumans. This is the perfect jumping-on point for this summer’s super hero-smashing, city-leveling, bone-crushing, Marvel history-making event!

I think this could be a pretty cool story. Hopefully it will wash the bad taste that the lackluster Civil War left in my mouth.

First Look: Dr. Doom from FF2: RoSS

CountingDown.com has posted the first picture of Dr. Doom from Fantastic Four 2: Rise of the Silver Surfer. Personally, I think it’s an improvement from the last film. I just hope they make the character as menacing as he ought to be this time around.

Iron Man Armor WILL be Red and Gold

I’m not sure if anyone was questioning this, but Jon Favreau has confirmed on the MySpace Iron Man movie group that we will see both the grey and the red and gold armor. He also talks about the recent USA Today picture of Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark and the teaser trailer.

From the MySpace page:

Let me confirm a few things: The movie will contain both the gray suit and the gold and red. The light you see in the photo on Robert’s chest in the USA Today article is the chest piece glowing through his shirt. He is in captivity and forging the mask of the Mark 1. Both suits have been built practically by Winston Studios and are busily at work as we speak. We are exploring ideas for teaser trailers, though no date has been decided. We are planning to attend San Diego Comicon. Bridges is bald and plays Stane. The movie is on schedule and could not be going better.

Personally, I think the first teaser trailer will be shown at the SDCC, but I have been wrong once before.

Picture of Iron Man Armor

I just wanted to add this as a follow-up to my post this morning about the first pic of Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark. The first picture of the original Iron Man armor from the upcoming movie was released on April 11, but there wasn’t all that much hype about it. I’m not sure if everyone has seen it yet so here it is for your viewing pleasure. Quite frankly I think it looks damn cool.

First look at Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark

The USA Today has posted an article about the new Iron Man movie directed by Jon Favreau. The article shows a nice picture of Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark. He looks the part even better than I thought he would.
