SDCC '09: Marvel Goes Anime

SDCC '09 has gotta be Marvel's playground. They're dropping the bombshell announcements as we speak.

According to Marvelousnews.com, Marvel will producing a plethora of new animated movies, shows, and anime... that's right, ANIME. Their animated stuff will compose of some of the best concepts and characters they have in their stockpile. From X-men to Blade, we'll be getting a kick out of the Land Of The Rising Sun's animation style courtesy of the folks from Madhouse entertainment - the folks who produced a many famous anime shows such as Trigun and Gungrave. Also, all of these shows will be written by Warren Ellis, so you can expect major awesome stories to come forth after giving fans so much to geek on about with G.I.Joe Resolute.

Starting things off with the upcoming Marvel Anime projects is a trailer on "Wolverine":




That one was ok... but ONE trailer I'm really happy about is this:



Damn right... IRON MAN goes ANIME, and it's in the vein of Mech Action meets Lupin III. I'm already sold for this, yessirree. It's fitting that Mr. Ellis is doing this, since he has played his hand with Iron Man back with the Extremis story arc a few years ago.Damn... I can't wait to see these shows already.
