NYCC 2025: Iron Man Relaunches With New Ongoing Series This January 2026

 


Tony Stark will make you feel he’s a cool exec with a heart of steel anew, as Marvel Comics has revealed during their “Next Big Thing” at New York Comic Con that they are relaunching yet again a brand new volume of “Iron Man” - with DC Comics superstar writer Joshua Williamson taking on the writing reigns and Carmen Carnero handling art duties!

The new series will launch this coming January 28, 2026, with Tony sporting a new armor in the Mark 75 and also featuring the returns of Pepper Potts and Madame Masque to the Iron Man mythos. Here’s more of the synopsis of the new ongoing series and issue #1 below c/o Marvel and Bleeding Cool: 




“Two of the industry's most celebrated creators join forces for an era of IRON MAN that's engineered to be a hit! The new run kicks off when Iron Man's plan to shape his legacy is twisted into an opportunity to weaponize the next Tony Stark. It's a clash of genius as a new archenemy is born, familiar faces—including a shocking comeback—return, and Marvel's most innovative super hero shines more brilliant than ever! See what's in store by checking out the main cover by Ryan Stegman, a special promotional variant cover by Adam Kubert, AND an advance lettered preview of the debut issue! The unapologetic Iron Man is a once-in-a-lifetime hero – but the beating heart behind the armor is a once-in-a-century genius. Years ago, Tony Stark was knocking on death's door, so he created the Iron Man armor to survive! What happens the next time death comes calling? What weapon does he create then? What if…someone else creates it first? These questions have haunted Tony for years, a ticking time bomb inside of him waiting to explode. Femme fatale Madame Masque has also asked these questions, and with the power of Advanced Idea Mechanics behind her…she's ready to create the next great weapon."

Today marks the Battle of Earth and Iron Man's Sacrifice in Avengers: Endgame

 


If you're a fan of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the films Marvel Studios has created, then today's date is significant as it marks one of the most important events in cinema history.

On this date in the fictional MCU timeline (October 17, 2023), the "Battle of Earth" takes place and the victims of Thanos' Snap/ The Blip are restored to life thanks to the Avengers -  culminating in an epic battle against the time-displaced Thanos and his armies that sees the villain defeated and Iron Man sacrificing his life to make that victory a reality.



To think this film eerily mirrors what we went through with the pandemic the past couple of years and coming back from it after isolation for a few years. Celebrate by rewatching "Avengers: Endgame".

Iron Man 15th Anniversary: Reminiscing About the Marvel Studios Film That Started the MCU!

 


“I Am Iron Man”! 

15 years ago, “Iron Man” was released in theaters - and it was the Marvel Studios movie that not only made Robert Downey Jr. into Tony Stark and the Armored Avenger, but jumpstarted the Marvel Cinematic Universe as we know it today! Directed by Jon Favreau, this superhero movie was instrumental in turning the then B-list Marvel superhero into a household name, and with his own solo film began “The Infinity Saga” - which played out in three phases that lead to the formation of the Avengers and introduced more heroes that converged to fight against Thanos as he wielded the might of the Infinity Stones!

As someone who saw it in theaters when it opened in April 30, 2008 in the Philippines (it opened on May 2 of that year in the US), I can’t believe we’ve come this far with the MCU and how this film has stood the test of time and remained one of my favorite superhero movies! I’ve collected toys, books, souvenirs, and yes even the poster from the film - and it remains timeless parts of my collection to this day.

Check out my TikTok video reminiscing this MCU film that started it all: https://vt.tiktok.com/ZS8wMoq7c/

Happy Anniversary, Ol’ Shellhead!

Hasbro Unveils “Marvel Vs Capcom” War Machine Marvel Legends Figure


For those who played the first two Marvel Vs Capcom games and remember playing the character of War Machine, Capcom reused the sprite of Iron Man from Marvel Superheroes - giving a color scheme similar to James Rhodes armor as well as adding a few new moves like the super move “War Destroyer” to his arsenal of attacks. This version is well remembered by fans of the fighting game series, and it comes as no surprise that Hasbro Pulse is releasing a recolor of their Modular Armor Iron Man - featuring that War Machine color scheme and red energy props that collectors can use to recreate those iconic poses from the games.





This is the third MvC War Machine action figure that comes after ToyBiz released a 5” action figure and a Face-Off Marvel Legends figure that was a variant in a two-pack alongside The Mandarin.


As revealed by Screen Rant, the new figure will retail for $24.99 and will be released some time in February 2023. Unfortunately there is no Proton Cannon or War Destroyer prop, so you’ll have a regular basic Modular Armor repaint in Rhodey style colors.
