Marvel comic characters to be adapted for anime by Madhouse

In a recent article published on the NYTimes.com website, US comic book publishers Marvel Entertainment (famous for their superhero comic series like Spiderman and X-men) and the anime studio Madhouse (Ninja Scroll, Paranoia Agent) have announced their intentions to “develop new versions of its characters for four anime series that will premiere in spring 2010 in Japan”. Although no specific Marvel titles were announced for this project, the article specifically mentions some “manga-influenced” drawings of Iron Man.
