MARVEL PROUDLY ANNOUNCES
SUPERIOR IRON MAN!
New York, NY – July 17th, 2014 – Marvel is proud to announce the release of
Superior Iron Man #1 by series writer Tom Taylor (Injustice: Gods Among Us) and series artist Yildiray Çinar (Supergirl). Beginning in November 2014, Tony Stark will give into his ego and return to his billionaire playboy roots of
self-obsession and superficiality.
Senior Editor Mark “Panic” Paniccia says, “What’s fun about
Superior Iron Man is we get to see Tony Stark in a different
mode. He’s very much like he was before Iron Man’s origin, before Tony
became a Super Hero…a narcissistic, selfish profiteer. And Tom Taylor is
having a blast with this personality, giving
us an Iron Man that is bound to ruffle some fans’ feathers but will
secretly—I think—find to be a guilty pleasure.”
“He’s self-obsessed. Cunning.
Superficial. Superior,” explains writer Tom Taylor. “He has given
Extremis to the people. Extremis can now be downloaded as a mobile app
through any smart device in San Francisco and this
creates Tony’s idea of a Utopia, which he is very happy to be at the
heart of. But not everyone is buying Tony’s Paradise.
Superior Iron Man will also feature recent “City by the Bay” transplant – Daredevil!
“Daredevil may be blind but he
can see the cracks in Stark’s Brave New World,” says Taylor. “In a way
this is all an allegory for the technology that now rules our lives. The
corruption that comes from this technology
and the dependence we each have on it.”
