It’s only a matter of time until Marvel NOW! launches, and it looks like the first look we’re going to get into the new playground is in the form of the formerly invincible “Iron Man.” Written by Kieron Gillen and illustrated by Greg Land, the book sees an all new vision take over the book with all new suits, all new locations, all new villains and all new problems. And you know what they say about all new problems.
So to keep the Marvel NOW! ball rolling, Marvel has released a sneak peek at the first three pages of Gillen and Land’s “Iron Man” #1, featuring a new suit, a new way to get it on and a bit of violence to keep things fresh. Take a look below:
