Iron Man unveiled as an Avenger

Marvel Comics has released a teaser adding Iron Man to the growing list of members for the new Avengers title.

Tony Stark will be joining Spider-Woman and Bucky Barnes as Captain America when the Avengers franchise is rebooted after Marvel's 'Siege' storyline brings the 'Dark Reign' to an end.

The teaser image is accompanied by the tagline "I do not dream about the future, I create it".

Iron Man currently lies in a coma after his mind was nearly destroyed following his fall from grace and the ongoing events of 'Dark Reign'.

Avengers - written by Brian Michael Bendis (Siege) with art from John Romita Jr (Kick-Ass) - will launch in May following the conclusion of Marvel's four current Avengers titles.
