Captain America: The First Avenger – Official Trailer
by Taavi Kuisma on Mar.24, 2011, under Entertainment, Headlines
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?
Stussy x Marvel team-up

Did I mention collaborations are cool? They are, especially when one of the collaborative parties is the comic book giant Marvel. Marvel is cool on its own and we’ve seen pretty awesome Marvel collaborations in the past so a collaboration with the street label Stussy should be nothing from pure awesome. Marvel characters and themes mixed with Stussy’s imagery. According to Hypebeast, “Stussy scoured comic books conventions, eBay, and local comic book stores for old issues with classic covers that would mold well with Stussy’s design aesthetic. Scanned from the original comic books and rare collectors posters from the 1960′s – 1990′s, the tee designs capture the essence of the characters, the texture of vintage comic books and the soulfulness of the Stussy brand.” You can’t go wrong with that now can you? Can’t wait to see what will come out of this. But should be cool! What can I say, I love comic books.
Red Skull

We’ve seen pics of Captain America, we’ve even seen a 30 second spot on the upcoming movie and now Marvel has published picture of Cap’s nemesis Red Skull. I have to say the look is pretty damn good. I mean you could see a short glimpse of the super-villain in the clip, but picture is better of course. Not a bad look at all. Few more months to go. One thing’s for sure, this is gonna be one helluva movie-summer.
The look of the new Spider-Man
by Taavi Kuisma on Feb.15, 2011, under Comics, Design and Artwork, Entertainment, Headlines
We posted some initial sneak preview pictures of the new Spider Man movie in the making. The movie starring Andrew Garfield as the web head has created some buzz around the web mainly because the movie’s rebooting the entire franchise. There are some differences for sure, but Marvel has been gracious enough to give us a look at how this iconic superhero will look like in the movie. And here you go.
X-Men – First Class
by Taavi Kuisma on Feb.11, 2011, under Comics, Design and Artwork, Entertainment, Headlines
This year is full of comic book movie releases and one of the more “slept on” releases is the X-Men First Class, which has definitely not caused quite the buzz as Thor or Captain America. I feel as if the marketing budget for the movie might be somewhat smaller as well. The movie has its theatrical trailer now though that gives us a bit better look on what to expect from the movie scheduled to hit the cinemas this summer.
NBA x Marvel All-Stars

While back NBA and Marvel joined forces for some pretty epic NBA styled Marvel cover art. Now these two names have joined forces again for some exclusive Marvel styled NBA apparel. Now in most cases these types of shirts would not look too cool. But don’t let the idea fool you. The shirts and caps produced for this collaboration are pretty damn cool.
Captain America – Superbowl Spot
by Taavi Kuisma on Feb.07, 2011, under Comics, Design and Artwork, Entertainment, Headlines
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.
First footage of Captain America
by Taavi Kuisma on Feb.06, 2011, under Comics, Design and Artwork, Entertainment, Headlines, Sports
As if you would need any more reasons to tune in for the SuperBowl Sunday match up between Pittsburgh Steelers and Greenbay Packers, Marvel has hinted that first footage of the upcoming Captain America movie would be shown during its commercial break. “Marvel will have a little something extra for you to get excited about, with your first look at “Captain America: The First Avenger” and a fresh peek at “Thor” in two all-new spots! Airing during the FOX Super Bowl broadcast on Sunday, February 6, these new spots will help whet your appetite until “Thor” hits theaters on May 6 and “Captain America: The First Avenger” bursts onto the big screen on July 22.” (Marvel)
Captain America First Avenger’s Pictures
by Taavi Kuisma on Nov.02, 2010, under Entertainment, Headlines
Yesterday, we posted pictures of Iron Man sneakers by Nike and it’s just fitting that we keep up with the comic book theme. Especially when Marvel drops bombs like release of new pictures from Captain America: The First Avenger starring Chris Evans as Captain America and Hugo Weaving as Johann Schmidt aka Red Skull.
Marvel goes Tron
by Taavi Kuisma on Oct.19, 2010, under Comics, Design and Artwork, Headlines
Tron seems to be taking over the markets from replica motorcycle outfits, to video games and even comic books. Of course Tron itself is a franchise that will (and most likely has) a comic book of its own, but with all the hype revolving the release of Tron: Legacy, comic book giant Marvel has produced Tron variant covers for the new comic book releases. Famous characters from Spider-Man to Ghost Rider styled in Tron theme still looking like their respective selves.
