Yeah, there's a quote from Howard on Wikipedia that makes it sound like he was signed on for IM2, but the studio decided not to honor the contract.

Iron Man was absolutely one of my favorite movies of all time. Iron Man was also one of my favorite comics as a kid so I'm a bit biased. However, I have seen many, many BAD comic book based movies. So, it was great to see this one done well even if they did take some liberties with the origin story in order to update it.

The trailer for IM2 looks pretty good too. Of course, I watched the one posted here but last night I saw a similar one at the movies when I went to see Sherlock Holmes. I'll definitely be in line to see IM2 when it comes out. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it will be as good as the first movie.
