>Writer Christopher Cantwell has put Iron Man and Hellcat’s blossoming romance through the ringer in the pages of his acclaimed run on IRON MAN. And this June, he’ll team up with amazing artist Ruairí Coleman to deliver a major turning point for the pair in a story that also dives deep into Hellcat’s fascinating history. IRON MAN/HELLCAT ANNUAL #1 will be a giant-sized epic showcasing why Tony and Patsy may be Marvel’s next great super hero romance.
>After Tony’s shocking marriage proposal in IRON MAN #20, Hellcat travels to San Francisco to get her house in order…only this house is an aging Victorian manor left to her by her mother Dorothy. The house and its secrets will reunite Patsy with old friends like Hedy Wolfe -- as well as others she’d hoped to leave dead and buried. When a supernatural crisis arises, will Hellcat and Iron Man combined be enough to beat back the flames of Hell itself?!
>On his reinvigorated take on the character, Cantwell says, “Hellcat has one of the most unique -- and, at times, inscrutable -- origin stories in Marvel Comics, but also one of my favorites. I love that Patsy got her start in teen romance comics in the 40’s and yet was still somehow able to ride the wave into the rise of super heroes, becoming Hellcat. With an epic and circuitous backstory that now spans more than 75 years, I’ve had a blast exploring the rich tapestry that is Patsy -- first in IRON MAN, and now with even more depth in this annual."
"In this tale, we focus on Hellcat’s peculiar relationship with Hell itself… after all, she’s spent some time there, and she once suffered a tumultuous marriage to Daimon Hellstrom, the Son of Satan. Patsy began as one of America’s first sweethearts, then became a hero, but she’s felt a darkness pull at her for years. It’s deep and twisted and personal and ugly… and maybe… a little alluring? Her relationship with Iron Man has been a welcome counterweight to that -- a light that’s dissipated some of the shadows in her. But this story explores Patsy’s connection to a scarier realm. Yes, she can be charming and bubbly and sweet, but is there a power in those fires of Hell that might illuminate a deeper truth?”
it started off good with this 'back to basics' shit they like to do with Tony, and within 12 issues he's an actual god, and immediately does something retarded with it.
And now he's going to marry a mindbroken double divorcee? lol

How long until Cant-write-well is off Iron man?
John Myers
Double?
Julian Hughes
>Furry bait This is only the beginning
Caleb Gonzalez
Why do they even try at this point?
Jackson Carter
>that cover
Julian Wright
Hopefully not long. Ice Cream Man started off well but fell off a cliff into just being a self-help book
Oliver King
Not the same person user
Owen Brown
They retconned her past marrying her high school sweetheart who was an abusive husband instead of just living together with a abusive boyfriend
Lincoln Campbell
I'm just wondering who was even asking for this couple? Or with the characters being together in a book in general?
Thomas Lewis
Who's Hellcat?
Liam Powell
Cantwell's Marvel work is all so fucking bad, Brevoort is too scared to actually edit him because he made a tv show
Benjamin Powell
Oops. I think did a six degrees thing in my head by mistake. Cantwell wrote a different comic the artist of Ice Cream Man did but there's no direct connection between Iron Man and that comic
Justin Jones
next 7 issues at least he will at minimum do legacy #750 which I think is 6 issues away.
Andrew Perry
is his non-Marvel comic work any good?
Julian Cox
Why did they remove Hellcat's toes? Those are her single defining feature.
Tyler Morales
Marvel wants a BATCAT tier romance, so they chose their equivalent of Bruce Wayne to be with Hellcat.
Dominic Phillips
its clear Cantwell jsut wants to write Hellcat book, so just give it to him
