The famed "Daredevil" and "Scarlet" team of writer Brian Michael Bendis and Alex Maleev will collaborate on "Infamous Iron Man," CBR can exclusively confirm, a fall-debuting series starring Victor Von Doom -- best known as iconic supervillain Doctor Doom -- as the new Iron Man. "Infamous Iron Man" will take the place of current series "International Iron Man" in Marvel's publishing schedule, also from Bendis and Maleev.

This move is an extension of storylines in the current Bendis-written "Invincible Iron Man" series, which has seen Von Doom seek rehabilitation, following his physical transformation at the end of the 2015 "Secret Wars" event series. It also raises plenty of questions -- like how will "Infamous Iron Man" interact with Bendis and artist Stefano Caselil's new "Invincible Iron Man" series, announced earlier this week and starring Riri Williams, a new character recently introduced by Bendis and Mike Deodato. "Infamous Iron Man" also pays off part of the Deodato-illustrated "Divided We Stand" teaser, which included Von Doom holding an Iron Man helmet.

 

[Shadow_Lord]

Superior Spider-Man style?

 

[Mr. Poolman]

More Doom = Yay!
Bendis = Boo!

 

[BlastProcessing]

Hmm... always pegged him as a Hulk guy.

 

[Coffee Dog]

Bendis on Doom is as tragic as Slott on Ock, and somehow this is even more out of character.

Also, I feel sorry for RiRi fans as she's getting overshadowed immediately. Here's hoping she doesnt become a Young Avenger and then killed.

 

[Hagi]

Not a big fan of this idea it seems small scale for Doom to be taking over from Tony especially coming off from Secret Wars.

this. right here. ill pass on this too. id be interested if this was anyone not named bendis

 

[Lord Frieza]

Hmm... always pegged him as a Hulk guy.

This is poetry

 

[PhoncipleBone]

Ditto.

Why would Doom lower himself to this level?

 

[Sou Da]

He got the sonning of a lifetime from Reed, he won't try anything like that again soon.

 

[Alienous]

Wait, Doom is a black woman?

 

[Scarecrow]

Hmm... always pegged him as a Hulk guy.

What was on the back of the shirt?

 

[Sinatar]

Bendis writing Doom is just gross.

Doom wearing Stark Tech armor is just hilarious.

 

[Sinatar]

[excelsiorlef]

Bendis writing Doom is just gross.

Any guarantee it's Stark tech?

 

[WrenchNinja]

Why would Doom sully his reputation by associating himself with Stark trash

 

[Sinatar]

Any guarantee it's Stark tech?

Bendis.

But no, though the promo image for Marvel Now 2.0 showed him with the current suit's helmet and the cover art also has that.

 

[Tatsumaki Senpuukyaku!]

This makes no sense.

It's so far out of character for Doom that I almost want to read it just to see how it's justified.

 

[Volimar]

Iron Man suits seem like a step down for Doom.

also...

which has seen Von Doom seek rehabilitation, following his physical transformation at the end of the 2015 "Secret Wars" event series.

What happened?

 

[EchoChamber]

Not like this doom not like this

 

[excelsiorlef]

Bendis.

But no, though the promo image for Marvel Now 2.0 showed him with the current suit's helmet and the cover art also has that.

Could be designed by Victor but moddled after Stark.

Just pondering


I like that they are just trying all kinds if weird new things.

 

[SalvaPot]

If they had showed the back of the shirt I'll had bought it in an instant.

 

[Sinatar]

What happened?

His face was cured.

 

[RecRoulette]

That's hilarious.

 

[The Kree]

Iron Man suits seem like a step down for Doom.

also...



What happened?

He saved the multiverse from extinction and nobody appreciated him for it.

 

[Fuu]

If they had showed the back of the shirt I'll had bought it in an instant.

The follow-up ad actually did.

 

[Hagi]

He got the sonning of a lifetime from Reed, he won't try anything like that again soon.

That shit was amazing and post that we are left with Vincent Cassel trying to be best buds with a serial underachiever in a book where everyone talks like they're in an early 2000 Ryan Reynolds film. I can't.

 

[googleplex]

His face was cured.

By Reed Richards of all people via the Molecule Man.

 

[Toa TAK]

Oh man I want this so bad.

 

[Dali]

So if Dr doom is now iron man does that mean they can put dr doom in the Marvel movies and just call him Victor so as to not make it overt?

 

[The Silver]

That is incredibly beneath Doom, must be a Skrull.

 

[gpn]

What was on the back of the shirt?

I had a T-Shirt of that when I was little. The other side is a rear-view of the Hulk and he's pulling a rabbit toy on wheels.

Edit: dammit, beaten.

 

[Mudcrab]

Bendis writing Doom is just gross.

Doom wearing Stark Tech armor is just hilarious.

 

[SargerusBR]

Waaaaaaaaaaaaat

 

[Tatsumaki Senpuukyaku!]

I might have to buy this if Mary Jane is Dr. Doom's personal assistant.

 

[The Kree]

So if Dr doom is now iron man does that mean they can put dr doom in the Marvel movies and just call him Victor so as to not make it overt?

No. Why would it?

 

[DeathoftheEndless]

So is it assumed that Tony Stark dies in Civil War II? Or else it would be weird to have two Iron Man books without him.

 

[Rhaknar]

Will he be part of whatever, still unannounced, Avengers team/book to be released at the same time? That would be great if only for the weird team dynamic

 

[Dalek]

It sure seems that way.

 

[Sinatar]

He got the sonning of a lifetime from Reed, he won't try anything like that again soon.

Said sonning gave me one of my favorite comic panels of all time.

Fuck I miss Hickman.

 

[The Silver]

he doesn't have to die, he could just hang up his armor and focus on being a rich prick

 

[Slayven]

Somebody check on Tony, Doom has a bad habit of wearing people

 

[Apharmd]

...

What the fuck happened to a black young woman being Iron Man?

I guess that lasted only two days. Or one.

He'll probably do or witness something horrible that makes him reconsider his life

...

Two different books.

 

[Mudcrab]

...

No? There's going to be two Iron Man titles. Invincible and Infamous.

 

[Kevinroc]

...

That comic is still happening. This is a second Iron Man title.

But expect everyone to focus on this one because Doom.

 

[Slayven]

Remember when Reed was tapped as Dr.Doom?

 

[Apharmd]

No? There's going to be two Iron Man titles.

So they're both Iron Man. This is annoying.

 

[Fandangox]

...

uh, its really common for comics to have multiple people have the same hero name at the same time, like the 3 spider man currently running about, or the two Captain Americas.
