Something seems to be going on at Marvel Comics, as the fourth, fifth, and sixth issues of the current Iron Man series, Tony Stark: Iron Man, have been given new release dates. Issue #7 may soon follow, but Marvel has yet to reveal the reason for the delays.

As reported by Newsarama, Issues #4 and #5 of the series will be rescheduled for Oct. 3 and Oct. 17, and Issue #6 will hit stands on Nov. 21, meaning there will be no issues of the title in September. This schedule change could also affect the release of Issue #7, as that was also slated for release on Nov. 21. The seventh issue may be given a new release date to avoid overlapping with Issue #6.

As of right now, neither Marvel or the current writer of the series, Dan Slott, have explained the reason for the delays. Production problems could be one cause, or Marvel may have something big planned for those dates that could have temporarily delayed the issues, but for now there seems to be no clear answer.
