ComicMix has the details on the DVD for this summer’s blockbuster Iron Man flick. Due on September 30, the two-disc set includes not only all the movie-specific googaws you could want, but also a documentary on Iron Man in the comics, entitled The Invincible Iron Man.
For that alone, I cannot wait to get this set. I’ve seen some great DVD documentaries for superhero films and TV series that actually address the comics and their creators—the Space Ghost DVD set has an AMAZING feature-length flick on Alex Toth, the Josie and the Pussycats set has a short doc on Dan DeCarlo, and the Superman: Doomsday set has a feature-length doc on (of all things) the creative process behind the Death of Superman storyline. I’ve heard there are similarly great docs on the FF2 and Daredevil sets, so I always keep my eyes open for those DVDs in the clearance bins (I like these docs, but not enough to pay full price for movies I don’t really need in my collection).
Anyways, save your pennies and dimes for this one. I have high hopes.
