The King has returned! Fresh off his key appearances in CIVIL WAR and WOLVERINE,
Marvel's first mutant returns in his own limited series that will forever change

himself in S.H.I.E.L.D.'s crosshairs. But is Namor to blame? Or is this merely
the first strike orchestrated by those within Atlantis who would see Namor stripped
of his title and his kingdom? The half-human, half-Atlantean son of two worlds
must race between the sea and the surface to track down those responsible for
the attack before Tony Stark, Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. - a.k.a. Iron Man - takes
him down! Written by Matt Cherniss and Peter Johnson (POWERLESS) with art by
the internationally acclaimed Phil Briones (WHITE TIGER) and a first cover by

AND THE MAIDEN #0 (AVAILABLE: June 15, 2007 - Wizard World Philadelphia

by Danimation; Character Design by Joe Madureira and Jeff Matsuda; Background & Concept
Design by Blur Studios; Color Design by
Chris
Lichtner; Cover by Michael Turner & Peter Steigerwald
In a nutshell, Rubin explained that Iron and the Maiden is “a cross between
a '30's gangster film, Escape from New York, and Beauty and the Beast. The books
follow Michael Iron, a Syndicate hit man who is trying to reform, and Angel Chase,
a debutante who loses her family in a mob collection gone awry. Iron and Angel
form an unlikely alliance to fight and evade the Syndicate, the Government and
the Church, the three dominant forces in the City, which is a futuristic alternate
universe 1930's metropolis. Their dream of escaping the City's oppressive morass
for a more a peaceful life in the countryside in a house with a white picket
fence mirrors the struggle of everyman to get ahead of the rat race of life.
The series’ antagonist is a “truly unique” character named
Big Daddy. “He has clawed his way up the Syndicate hierarchy through
deceit and backstabbing. The entire City, including his organization fears
him and his edicts. Yet he can’t reach the top shelf at a grocery store.
“Besides Iron, Angel, and Big Daddy, we are keeping the rest of the
characters under wraps for now. I will say that MAD and Jeff Matsuda have designed
20 unique characters between them for the project. It’s a big cast, and
a lot to get in to the mini-series!”
Rubin admitted that the world of Iron and the Maiden was created with film,
television, and video games in mind. “However, I am focusing on the comic
first,” he said. “As I said, my goal is to provide a great comic
first and then work on the rest.”
