Marvel has released a new theatrical poster for their upcoming film Marvel’s The Avengers. If you ask me, it looks kinda dorky, considering all the other cool stuff we've seen so far. In all seriousness, considering all the iconic Avengers covers from the past they could have drawn upon,  we get Percy Jackson and the Kids from Harry Potter.  Dear Marvel, Please Get Alex Ross or Drew Struzan to give me something "Man Cave" worthy. /rant Oh yeah, and Check back for the new trailer tomorrow!
