COMICS: Marvel Once Again Asks, "Who Is The New Iron Man?"

Who is the new Iron Man? What can their new suit do? And what will happen to Tony Stark? All these answers and more beginning this May in "Long Way Down," a new story arc in INVINCIBLE IRON MAN from the Eisner-award winning creative team of Matt Fraction and Salvador Larroca!




So, who do you think is the new Iron Man? Marvel aren't exactly releasing a lot of clues, but we'll be sure to keep you updated as the publisher continues to tease this next big storyline in the pages of Invincible Iron Man.

I hate these kinds of story lines. A non-Stark Iron Man? A non Rich Rider Nova? What's next? Funky Winkerbean as the Hulk?

Maybe Rhodey?
(I really haven't been following up what happened to him. Is he still War Machine/Iron Man 2.0?)

I hope it's just Tony pretending that it's not him, when it actually still is. That way he wouldn't be as much under fire.

Not feeling this at all. Stark will be back in the red and good armor in about 2 months.

The thing I hate when they replace the person behind the costume is that it takes a lot away from the central character. It almost makes out that anyone can be Iron Man, Batman, Spider-man etc, but the reasons these characters have gone that extra mile is because what drove them to become heroes in the first place, just saying all you need to be Iron Man or Batman is to wear the suit, to be Spider-Man just need spider powers. It isn't as simple as that, it is their victories, tragedies and relationships that defined them, made them who they are, so there are 1 or 2 exceptions, but personally think it is always a bad move to replace the core character.

Maybe its an android/AI version of Tony Stark that he created, or a modified Ultron.

The black and blue ad white reminds me of Steve Rogers. Especially with those white lines coming from the center arc reactor.

Seriously though...why is this new guy even called Ironman. Doesn't look very iron to me.
