The hotly anticipated Marvel Studios panel at San Diego Comic-Con has revealed a flood of new details for Phase Two of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Phase One consisted of the Iron Man, Incredible Hulk, Thor and Captain America movies leading in to this year's mega-blockbuster Avengers movie...

Just in time for July 4, Sideshow Collectibles has revealed new photos of its patriotic San Diego Comic-Con International 2012 Hot Toys exclusive: Captain America Rescue Version. The 1/6 scale HT figure stands 12" tall, bears the likeness of Chris Evans in his Captain America: The First Avenger role and packs in all of the film's World War II era details, including Cap's original shield and

A comic by Cullen Bunn and Barry Kitson is pretty exciting to begin with, but with next month's Captain America & Iron Man #634, they've raised the bar. Why? Because in that issue, two of the mightiest Avengers of all are going to be facing the single deadliest threat of their long and storied careers: The Perilous Parkour of Batroc the Leaper! T...

Cartoonist Dan Hipp created this characteristically excellent piece in honor of Memorial Day, when we here in the United States take special time out to recognize and honor the real-life superheroes in the armed forces who made the ultimate sacrifice defending America and her allies...
