An anonymous reader writes "In a recent CBR interview about his new continuation of the Marvel comic book series "Invincible Iron Man," Matt Faction provides a information about the debut (which will be May 7). In the new series, the villain is Ezekiel Stane, son of Obadiah Stane (who happens to be the villain of the new Iron Man movie opening on May 2). Whereas his father Obadiah was a ruthless billionaire who fought as the Iron Monger, 'Zeke' "rejects the strategies of his father as being the crude tactics of Attila the Hun." Instead, he will be "a post-national business man and kind of an open source ideological terrorist". As the author puts it, "Windows wants to be on every computer desktop in the world, but Linux and Stane want to destroy the desktop." Apparently the work has gone over well on the CBR forums, where several members applaud the idea of an open source supervillain."
