It’s been a while since I posted up anything on the sneaker front. Time to change that. A friend of mine (shout out to Aleksi) brought this particular pair to my attention. A pair of sneakers any Marvel fan, especially fans of Tony Stark aka the Iron Man would pay attention to. A pair that is definitely inspired by the red and gold clad armored avenger. Though the design is rather flashy, I would not mind owning a pair. If I ever happen to find a pair in my size.

Now that we have somewhat gotten over the Avengers and Spiderman it’s time to start observing the teasers from the upcoming Iron Man 3 movie due to release next year. Marvel was nice enough to showcase the latest mark 8 version of the Iron Man armor in the Comic Con, pictures of which you can find below.

Definitely the coolest thing I’ve seen today. As if the anticipation for the Avengers movie was not enough. LEGO is bringing us the Avengers line of toys in conjunction with the upcoming blockbuster. Being a huge fan of both Marvel and LEGO, I honestly can’t wait for the launch. Maxwell is almost old enough to play with LEGO anyways. Umm, emphasis on the word almost. Perhaps I could buy some of these toys for “safekeeping.” You can check out more details and pictures at Marvel‘s site.

Marvel recently released the official trailer for the Captain America: The First Avenger. We saw the first spot during Super Bowl halftime, now we have the official trailer for the movie. The film looks awesome, I mean as a fan of the comics I could not find anything to complain about the trailer. I seriously can’t wait for the film. So what do you think about the movie version of Steve Rogers?

As promised Marvel delivered the first clip of the upcoming blockbuster Captain America: The First Avenger during the Superbowl Sunday. The movie, starring Chris Evans as Steve Rogers, a sickly young man who enrolls to a Super Soldier program thus becoming Captain America, the world’s first Avenger. The first 30 seconds look pretty badass, I mean what else would you expect. They don’t want to show too much in the first clip but you can see that Evans has at least bulked up to look the part. Red Skull played by Hugo Weaving looks like Red Skull as well. Next up, theatrical trailer I suppose. Let’s see what Marvel cooks up next.

22nd of July 2011 is only about half a year away and that means we’re getting to see more and more previews of the upcoming Captain America film. The movie starring Chris Evans as Captain America: The First Avenger is getting more and more hype built around it and already has the forums buzzing. Many naysayers are complaining about Evans also starring as the Human Torch in the Fantastic Four. Personally I don’t really see this as a problem. After all, there are a lot of superheroes and just a number of actors who can pull off the particular roles. The latest Marvel release is the cinematic poster for the film and it’s pretty epic. Thor’s poster was not bad but it wasn’t really special either. But I like the Captain America’s movie poster. Let’s just say it fits. What do you think? Do you think Captain America will set a new pace for the Marvel Super Hero movies or will it be just another comic book flick. Let us know.

I love it when all of these big name brands get their holiday spirit on and well commercialize the happy holidays. I hav to give kudos to Marvel and their Christmas approach. I mean doesn’t the picture below tell what Christmas is all about?

Yesterday while spending my few minutes off work, I happened to come across pics supposedly taken from the set of Captain America: The First Avenger. I mean the pics look authentic enough and it would seem that Chris Evans has bulked up for the role of Steve Rogers, no muscle suits involved.
