“The tone of this movie will feel as unique as when you saw Iron Man, X-Men, or Batman Begins for the first time. Continue reading FANTASTIC FOUR Reboot Compared To BATMAN BEGINS

Iron Man is missing from the Marvel August previews. Writer Kieron Gillen announced via Tumblr he’s leaving the series.

 

“Basically, the situation is this. An enormous opportunity turned up.

The new book Marvel was offering was so utterly irresistible, I knew something had to give – and I realised that I was actually in a good place to bring my run to a conclusion. I realized the ORIGINAL SIN story would be a damn good climax for everything I’ve done, and between all I’ve put in play with the Mandarin War, Iron Metropolitan and where the HULK/IRON MAN story ends up, there’s a mass of toys for the next writer to play with.

For your consideration:

 

With a leading man in James McAvoy (Wanted, The Last King of Scotland) maybe it’s time to see some of the women in Professor X’s life in X-Men: Apocalypse or perhaps a spinoff starring Charles Xavier?

Moira was an America CIA operative played by Rose Byrne in X-Men: First Class. Perhaps Moira can have he telepathic blocked memories rekindled for a sequel that reunites her with Charles.
