Marvel Anime

Marvel has announced that they are partnering with renowned Japanese animation studio Madhouse (Paprika, Tokyo Godfathers, Vampire Hunter D, Death Note, Trigun). There will be four all new anime versions of classic Marvel Super Heroes. On Friday, July 24, the Marvel Animation Panel will give an exclusive first look at the official teaser trailers (Iron Man and Wolverine). What is interesting is the panel will be hosted by Warren Ellis. The series is expected to begin appearing on the Animax channel in Japan in spring 2010.

Umm...fail?

Who knows.....i''l wait for a trailer before i judge it.

Could be good if Marvel has no input and just give the studio free reign with certain characters. It would be interesting to see a japanese / anime take on them and not just the animation style with the same old recycled story lines Marvel love to use.

Japanese comics are far more entertaining than American. I'm excited to see how this plays out.

facepalm

I'm interested. I've always wanted to see what would happen if something like this would happen. as long as they keep the marvel heroes (and maybe villains) the same in terms of who they are and their powers, then it should be okay.

now that I think on it, Hulk in comics doesn't cause as much destruction as I always him causing, so maybe in the anime (if he's in there) he will.

I like how manga is just one long story, each to their seperate universe, instead of all around changes in continuity and retconning and alternate universes and everybody appearing in everyone else's comics.

Arale in Dragonball? Those are two separate universes entirely. It's like you're saying that people who live right down the street from someone, should never be seen. They all live in the same world and they all have common enemies so why wouldn't they appear in each other's books?

Oh christ dude. Relax. That's not what I'm saying at all.

There's plenty retconning and changes being done in various Manga. Nor is there that much of it in comics. But I'll gladly take a few logical changes when it comes with vastly superior art and storyline.

You guys dont have to defend american comics, I wasn't insulting them.

I just like one straight-forward story.
