How interesting! They found a way to "re-invent" Iron Man! Sweet!Iron Man: "Smallville" co-creator Miles Millar recently spoke to Sci-Fi Wire about how his and Alfred Gough's work is progessing on the comic adaptation - "We're about halfway through the script. We spent, I guess, seven months developing the story. So we're happy. ... It's faithful [to the Marvel Comics series], but it's also very different from the original. And it's updated....I think we found a really cool way, actually, to reinvent the suit, make it very high-tech, make it very cool visually...It's going to be a very different suit. But, yeah, it will be a gold suit". Millar also confirmed the Tony Stark character's drinking problem will remain a key element in the New Line film. Thanks to 'Antoine' & 'FanHalen'.
Nice!
Hey, makes you wonder why they even bothered to spring for the FUCKING LICENSE, but no, seriously, that's great! You're doing fantastic work, Miles! That Superman-as-a-member-of-Party-of-Five thing! Aces!
By the way, you heard it here first: regardless of whether or not it's a "gold" suit (how about gold and red, jackass) there will not be an opaque mask to the thing.
...
... Actually, you probably didn't hear it here first. I mean, that's a pretty obvious comment to make. But nevertheless! You did in fact here it here! And any message which quotes this one! Excelsior!
