"no cap, damn he keeps getting the short end of the stick. why no cap love!??"

Considering the fact that this cover is a throwback to the first Avengers comic, I am more surprised that they didn't fill in Ant-man and Wasp roles on there. Plus I think that is just coincide we you are thinking with Cap not appearing a lot.

And why can't this be a live action poster? If I saw this in my local theater I would wet my pants.

Can anyone inform me of what all comic tie ins we have so far.
I'm aware of Captain America: First Vengeance, and Fury's Big Week. Is there any Iron Man, Thor, or Hulk tie ins? Also on First Vengeance I see some places that say it is 8 issues and some that say 4. Whats up with that?

I've actually been reading Fury's Big Week and it's pretty cool, I recommend it.

@BlackAmerica First Vengeance was originally a digital comic consisting of 8 issues. It was later released in print with 2 issues in each, meaning in print, it was technically only 4 issues.There was also a one shot set in the Cinematic Universe featuring a stand alone Thor story and a stand alone Cap story which are pretty good. There's an Iron Man 2 adaptation which is from Black Widow's point of view, although I've never read it. I remember an Incredible Hulk tie in miniseries when the movie was released too.

the should do a combination of #1 and the one that features Cap's debut (#3, is it?).

i wonder if there's an Alex Ross' take on the movie, yet, somewhere...
