Entertainment Weekly gave their cover over to a “First Look” at The Avengers.  I don’t know if there are images from the movie in the article (I can’t really leave my computer to go to the store and buy the issue), but the cover is basically, “Hey, remember what these Marvel characters looked like?  Okay, well there have been some super minor changes that only obsessive nerds will notice, but the characters look pretty much the same.”  What this obsessive nerd noticed: Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson) got a haircut, you can see a hint of purple on Hawkeye’s (Jeremy Renner) outfit, and if that’s Bruce Banner’s angry face, then Mark Ruffalo may have been horribly miscast.

As for information contained in EW’s online sneak peek of the article, Renner says “Just because they’re super heroes doesn’t mean they’re super friends,” and writer-director Joss Whedon tells Entertainment Weekly he was scribbling out new dialogue every day.  “There is a weird element of: they handed me one of the biggest movies of all time,” says Whedon, “and I’m making it up as I go.”  Hit the jump to check out the full cover.  The Avengers opens in 3D on May 4, 2012.

    It seems that Hawkeye and Black Widow were meant to be substitutes for Ant-Man and Wasp all along.

    Wohoo!! Scarlett Johansson looks like a strong, empowered, sexy and sophisticated Black Widow. Hahah.. freakin’ fantastic, can’t wait! Man! I feel like a woman!

    Cut cut cut paste paste paste. Yeah, that’ll do it.
    Awful

    Scar-jo looks stupid.

    Hemsworth looks like a woman with a beard.
    Evan’s looks like he’s going to cry.
    Renner looks like he’s got a hardon for the cameraman.

    Who is that doucher in the lower right hand corner? He totally looks constipated.

  6. Eric Nixon @

    Mark Ruffalo’s angry face looks more like Blue Steel.

    Thor’s hair is bleached. GOD! What’s wrong with all these guys?
    Uggghhh!

    You losers are actually going to criticise the first look cover of the EW magazine?! wow…… it’s a shame to realize that so many of the people going to see this movie are such picky losers. Who cares if the expressions on their faces are….. appropriate for what a superhero should look? It’s a fucking photograph!

    This movie’s going to rock besides! :P

    • Hiro the Eighth Samurai (and 14th Assassin) @

      Yes, they are, Conrad the Hypocrite.

      As you say, “It’s just a photograph.”

      So why are YOU getting so angry that some people are criticizing something that’s “just a photograph”?

    Mark Ruffalo looks like a reject from the Saturday Night Live movie.

    • reut @

      Hah!! He looks exactly like Night at the Roxbury! “What is love? Baby don’t hurt me! No more!”

      Oh, you are correct. He is going to ruin the movie by screwing a lesbian I know it.

  10. OneEyedWillie @

    Looks like shit! A real photoshop disaster… lame!

  11. VALENTINEproductions @

    wow im laughing pretty hard at zoolander there on the right. wtf?! this is a horrible cover.

  12. flicster @

    How bummed is Ruffalo’s inner-child in this … all the others get to wear cool superhero costumes and he’s dressed like an English professor.

  13. Lance @

    Ruffalo looks like a bad stage magician posing for the camera. “It’s maaaaaagggiiiiic!”

    Also, I personally think Whedon is overrated. Avengers could be the film where the wheels fall off the wagon.

    The mishmosh of outfits looks really silly when they are all together. I know it’s being accurate to the comics, but it looks really weird. I guess that’s why they ‘standardized’ the Xmen costumes?
