Here’s a new trailer for Marvel's Avengers giving it the razzle dazzle overview recap, as well as some tasty info from developer Crystal dynamic’s big cheese in charge of the project on how you'll be min-maxing a team worthy of the title of Earth's mightiest mortals.

Five years after the shocking events of Avengers: Infinity War, God of Thunder’s priorities shift towards playing video games with his best pals while attempting to drink every bottle of beer in the city! His unexpected descent into depression has turned him to an alcoholic, thus giving him a massive physical transformation.

Forget about movie trailers, new TV shows and cool toys that are so far out of your price range that you’d have to mortgage your organs to afford them! New York Comic Con is still a comic book showcase, one that sees publishers from all over the industry gather to reveal what’s in store for the near future. From DC Comics and Marvel, to IDW Publishing and BOOM! Studios, here’s a quick recap of all the news that you might have missed over the Comic Con weekend.

Lightning strikes, repulsor blasts, ground pounds, shield throws, and spy tech make our heroes quite the team in Marvel's Avengers. In this tutorial level, the Avengers must defend San Francisco after a mysterious attack threatens the safety of the city.

It’s not easy covering the San Diego Comic-Con, and I don’t just mean that because the show is a gargantuan hive of activity that is overflowing with cosplayers, panels and enough merch to make your wallet scream. No pals, what’s tough about covering all the news coming out of the premiere pop culture show of the year is that I’m not there, dammit.

No, seriously, Thor has been deployed by the US military. Just not the Thor you might be familiar with.

Throw in some character design that just looks odd, a focus on the most bankable characters of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and voice acting that sounds like a case of going through the motions, and it’s unclear what kind of game Marvel’s Avengers wants to be. Fortunately, there’s still plenty of time to make some changes.

If Crystal Dynamics wants to create a game that can last for years after launch, then the character action needs to be heckin’ appealing. With a full squad of Avengers arriving on launch day and more planned for a free release in the months to come, Crystal Dynamics is betting that the real appeal for Marvel’s Avengers will lie in not just one hero, but all of them.
