Iron Man, Captain America & Thor! Oh My!

I am very excited for the Avengers movie when it comes out. Not only do I love Joss Whedon who is directing, I love Iron Man, comic book movies and the like.
Unlike my roommate, I loved the Iron Man series so far starring Robert Downey Jr and directed by Jon Favreau. My father was into the comic books and my roommate is now into them. I can relate to that culture quite well and every year plan my Comicon trip although the days fail me. My first favorite comic book film was Mystery Men. I also love Tank Girl very much.
But, Marvel is the mainstream right now. X-Men, Iron Man, Thor, Captain America, Hulk...they're all working towards something even bigger: The Avengers. It's a big topic right now.
