I'm sure most of you know by now about the teaser trailer for Iron Man the movie. I won't provide a link to it here. Google it if you haven't seen it. The footage in the teaser looks good, really good. I just hope they don't demonize Tony Stark all together, yeah, we know he's kind of a jerk sometimes, but that's not his core. At his core he's a hero.
I dislike the direction the comics have taken with the character recently, and only hope that a change is coming. I enjoyed immensely the way Iron Man is treated in the new Enter: The Mandarin comic series written by Joe Casey and beautifully drawn by Eric Canete. It's almost a throwback tale in more ways than one; we do get to see the origin and first meeting of the Mandarin and Iron Man, but also the return of a Tony Stark that isn't a creep.
While we're on the subject of comics. I picked up the new Amazing Spider-man with the One More Day storyline. Don't waste your money on it. I thought it would be a return to form but it was just another JMS debacle. Will someone please get him away from Spider-man. His Thor work is great so far, Spider-man, not so much.

yeah the trailer was pretty cool, although the use of "iron man" music was almost too much. haha. I think we will see him as an antihero, like Riddick, he is going to have to learn to be a hero once he realizes he has the power to stop evil.
