[ZODDGUTS]

So Madhouse will animate four Marvel series. Wonder which will it be? Most likely Spider-Man considering how popular it is in Japan, X-Men is also another possibility they did air the 90's animated X-Men and reanimated the opening by a Japanese studio, the other two could be FF4 and Ironman.

So Marvel is also doing a Gotham Knight-like project now. 'm happy for this but I hope the anime series won't stray too far from their core element though

2010...it's still far away
