Not sure if others have seen the trailers already, but they were showcased at Comic Con 09. At least it looks interesting, though it seems there's some flaming going around. Especially about the direction Wolverine's going They should be coming out some time in 2010.

im loving these anime adaptions, mainly cause their done in such good quality, ie. Iron Man was FTW

they look really terrible - western comics should stay away from anime. Halo is also being made =.=

coldfish's opinion on page 2 is my shared opinion on the matter

Totally forgot about the Halo one =P

Only thing is that Iron Man and Wolverine are probably going to be a series, whereas the Halo collection is in line with Animatrix and Batman: Gotham Knight in terms of release. Either way, I'll still watch it, lol.

For the record, Gotham Knight was pretty bad <.<

As Arthur said, its a welcome addition. Might appeal to a wider audience this way. Though with the way Wolverine's going, it probably won't end up going all that well. Iron Man looked ok in terms of production values, but from the teaser itself, you can't judge much else, like story and whatnot. The villian is probably a one-off, if its going to be made into a series.

Holy crap.  These look terrible!

Wolverine one is just....just...uurggghhh..not only because of the pig disgusting mullet, but also how well his character design would lend itself to ....alternate sexual reinterpretation.

The Iron Man one isn't too bad. As some one in the Youtube comment remarked, it really just shows the high quality of Japanese animation...

I'm sure they will have fairly interesting and engaging stories to tell - some of the stuff those comic book writers come up with can be incredibly awesome and mindtwisting.
