Random House will produce four prose tie-ins to next year’s IRON MAN film, according to this PR:
Random House’s Keith Clayton has
acquired world English rights from Marvel Entertainment to four books
based on their iconic Super Hero Iron Man. Two books will be direct
tie-ins to the Iron Man film from Marvel Studios, including the
official adult novelization of the movie and a nonfiction title
featuring an inside look at the upcoming film as well as material on
the creation of the character and his history in the comic book world.
They will be released in the weeks prior to the film’s U.S. debut on
May 2nd, 2008. Two books will be original Iron Man novels,
focusing on the classic Iron Man character, and will be released at a
future date.
Looks like things are finally shaping up for ol’ Shellhead!

I believe that PAD mentioned the other day on his blog that he is writing the Iron man adaptation.
Four? Why not six? Seriously, who will buy all four Iron Man novels?
Watch for product placement
Now we can finally get that sequel to “And Call My Killer…Modok”!

Peter David is good … but … does he have to write EVERY novelization? I wouldn’t mind hearing another author’s voice on some of these books.
