Iron Man: Armored Adventures provides action like only Iron Man can
Iron Man: Armored Adventures is one of the leading animated series out this year.
TV Guide writes: “This new cartoon based on the Marvel Comics superhero focuses on the adolescent years of Tony Stark. It tweaks some of the details of Iron Man’s history by having Tony create his famous suit of armor and become Iron Man as a teenager, not as an adult.”
During the first two episodes of the series – now available on DVD – young hero Tony Stark faces a life changing personal tragedy which leads him to transform into the Iron Man that comic book fans will already be familiar with.
“While trying to unravel some mysteries,” TV Guide continues, “he quickly learns there is corruption he needs to battle – as only Iron Man can.”
This series makes Iron Man accessible to a younger audience, but still maintains the elements of the movie and comic book series that hardcore fans love.
Says the show’s head writer Christopher Yost to Comic Book Resources: “We wanted to see Tony Stark, the Tony Stark that comic book fans and now movie fans know. We wanted him to be recognizable even though he is a teenager. So based on the premise of teen Tony going to school in high school our goal was how do we make it as much like the Tony Stark that we know and love as much as possible? Every episode and every story we really approached it like that.”
The CGI animated series has been so popular that it is now set to air on televisions around the globe. The first six episodes of the show’s first season are currently flying from shelves, and the upcoming second disc of the DVD series is likely to sell just as well.
