The Avengers: A Silent Film

We’re due a new Avengers trailer tomorrow, this time with, like, actual plot elements; but in the meantime enjoy this shameless Oscar grab of a reinterpretation. I mean, come on guys. That “squelch” joke ain’t gonna get you anywhere. The Artist had a few other things going for it other than just being silent and in black and white.

It also glorified classic Hollywood culture, so… Well, actually you could work with that. Just tell Mr. Downey to reprise his Chaplin role, and throw a bowler on his Iron Man suit.

Susana Polo thought she'd get her Creative Writing degree from Oberlin, work a crap job, and fake it until she made it into comics. Instead she stumbled into a great job: founding and running this very website (she's Editor at Large now, very fancy). She's spoken at events like Geek Girl Con, New York Comic Con, and Comic Book City Con, wants to get a Batwoman tattoo and write a graphic novel, and one of her canine teeth is in backwards.
