Iron Man Anime To Premiere on Comic-Con This July.

The first episode of MADHOUSE's Iron Man anime series will have its world premiere at Comic-Con International, which will run in San Diego from July 22 to July 25. The Animax anime television channel has also announced that the anime will then hold its television premiere on Animax in Japan on Friday, October 1 at 10:00 p.m. Marvel Entertainment had previously stated that the 12-episode series would premiere during the second quarter (April-June) of the year. Marvel Anime: Iron Man and Marvel Anime: Wolverine were slated to air in the United States next year.

Marvel Entertainment had revealed in August of 2008 that it was working with MADHOUSE on four series with Marvel's stable of comic book characters. (The other two projects will center on Blade and X-Men.) Masao Maruyama, the co-founder of MADHOUSE, offered a video preview of its Iron Man and Wolverine work at Comic-Con International last July.


Originally, the Iron Man anime is set to premiere this Spring but they decided to move its premiere this Fall. Now I wish I have money to go to San Diego Comic-Con and watch the first episode of Iron Man! Oh well, I will still see it this October! To psych you up, here's the trailer of the upcoming Iron Man anime.
