New Iron Man title

Iron Man will have two solo books. I don't see it lasting more than 25 issues as Iron Man has not traditionally been able to carry more than one book and has struggled with just the one. [Link]
Marvel Comics announced today the creation of “Invincible Iron Man,” a new monthly series to be written by Matt Fraction (“Immortal Iron Fist,” “Casanova”) and illustrated by Salvador Larroca (“Amazing Spider-Man,” “Newuniversal”). The series, which will run concurrently with the existing "Iron Man" monthly title, is set to debut in May, the same month the “Iron Man” film is released in theaters.

"Tony Stark is equal parts James Bond and Chuck Yeager--a pioneer, a test pilot, an engineer, an adrenaline junkie visionary," said Fraction in the Marvel.com exclusive. "Iron Man is the ultimate achievement in what we, as humans, can become. He's not the product of cosmic rays or a radioactive spider. He is the triumph of human ingenuity over the frailty of the human form."
