As you may know, I am patiently waiting for May 7th when Iron Man 2 drops. There has been a lot of hub-bub about what’s in store in the sequel. The trailers have brought a lot of excitement and criticism as well. Most of the criticism from comic book fans has been toward Whiplash and how he looks in the movie however one thing has always been clear. Director, Jon Favreau never disappoints (for me anyways) and always has couple secrets up his sleeve. Iron Man 2 has already teased fans that there will be new suits and we have already got a 2-3 second glimpse of War Machine unleashing his arsenal in the teaser trailer. It has been hinted that Iron Man will feature up to Mark VI. Considering the last Iron Man suit shown in the first movie in it’s bout with Iron Monger was a Mark III, we are in for 3 new revisions. We already got glimpses of the Mark IV suit which seems to be a sleeker and cleaner version of the Mark III which still had exposed internal mechanics. Marvel Studios and Paramount has been pretty secretive about what the Mark VI will look like, but a leaked photo couples months ago showed an Iron Man with triangular chest Arc Reactor contrary to the circular one that we saw in Iron Man 1 and sequel teasers. With all this speculation going on, Comic Book Movie showed artist renditions of the new Iron Man and War Machine from the sequel. Of course, we cannot tell which version of the Iron Man this conceptual art is of, but I’m going to guess that it’s the Mark VI (and yes there is a lot of guessing and speculation going on). I am definitely happy that the designs are staying true to Adi Granov’s vision of Iron Man. I am even more happier that he doesn’t have metal nipples. DAMN YOU SSCCHHHUUUUMMMAACCCCHHHHEEEERRRRRRRR!!!

Hit the jump and feast your eyes on these lovelys.
