Ranking The Avengers Movies Before CIVIL WAR
Captain America: Civil War is released in theaters today. This first film in “Phase 3” of the Marvel Cinematic Universe has a huge character roster. Its spotlight scene in trailers and marketing show over a dozen Marvel characters on screen duking it out. With Iron Man, Ant-Man, Spider-Man, and a full Avengers roster, Civil War feels less like a third Captain America movie, and more like the culmination of everything that has come before.
In preparation for this superhero “Monster Mash” here is a recap of the first two phases of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, ranked from worst to best!
Release dates set for ‘Ant-Man’ Blu-ray, VOD

In its announcement, Disney revealed the releases would be stocked with bonus features that include audio commentary by Rudd and director Peyton Reed, the Making of an Ant-Sized Heist: A How-to-Guide and Let’s Go to the Macroverse featurettes, deleted scenes, and more.

Rumor: Ant-Man Marvel Legends Figure to be Walgreens Exclusive?
Could the next Walgreens exclusive Hasbro Marvel Legends figure be Ant-Man? Read on for why this now seems likely.
Two bits of news came to us two days apart. Taken separately they mean nothing, but put together a pattern seems to form.
First we received an inside tip from a HYDRA Agent at Walgreens. The Agent sent a screenshot showing that the upcoming Avengers: Age of Ultron Marvel Legends figures, the ones with the Odin Build-A-Figure, are now in the Walgreens system. More interesting, though, is that there were eight individual UPC codes as shown in the below image:
This new wave of Marvel Legends is slated to have seven figures: Iron Fist, Hawkeye, Captain Marvel, Thor, Sentry, Scarlet Witch, and Machine Man. As these figures ship in cases of eight the standard case will have two of the in-demand classic Hawkeye figure.
I was confused as to what the eighth UPC could be, until Walgreens Toy Buyer Steven Anne tweeted:
2015 – An irredeemable year for action figures. Perhaps also electrifying? Am I doing this blind news correctly?
— Steven Anne (@stevenganne) January 2, 2015
As Ant-Man’s 2006 Comic was titled Irredeemable Ant-Man it is likely that Anne may be hinting at an exclusive of the figure tying into this summer’s upcoming film.
Rumors of an Ant-Man Marvel Legends figure have been swirling on social media recently, though there was no consensus on if there would be only one Ant-Man figure or an entire Ant-Man themed wave of Marvel Legends. The rumors were consistent in that the figure(s) would be an exclusive, with some indicating Target as the retailer who would carry it.
While confirmation will likely come at next month’s Toy Fair International, it seems likely now that Ant-Man will be a Walgreens exclusive.
Walgreens is a new retailer to carry exclusive Hasbro collectible figures. They started in 2014 with Agent Venom in the Marvel Legends line as well as a Boba Fett figure in the 6-inch Star Wars Black Series line.
Given that Anne’s tweet also mentions “electryfying” speculation has already begun that it may reference another Star Wars exclusive figure as well. (Let the speculation begin–an electrified Darth Vader or Luke Skywalker from the end of Return of the Jedi?)

Ant-Man #1 Sec-ANT Printing On The Way and a Gi-ANT Reminder!!
Marvel’s smallest hero with the big heroics is a critical smash hit! Launching just this week, Ant-Man #1 has all the critics raving! Marvel is pleased to announce that Nick Spencer and Ramon Rosanas’ debut first issue has completely sold out at the distributor level and will return for a Sec-ANT Printing!
Scott Lang has never been the world’s best super hero. Heck, most people don’t even think he’s been the best Ant-Man – and the last guy created Ultron and joined the Masters of Evil, so that’s really saying something. But all that’s about to change when the Superior Iron Man calls up Scott with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
Everyone is raving about Ant-Man #1. Don’t believe us? Here’s what the critics had to say.
· “With a blockbuster movie on the way, Ant-Man #1 is the perfect jumping on point for readers”
– The Washington Post
· “Get ready to be able to say you are now an Ant-Man fan”
– Comic Vine
· “…with this top-notch team on board, you need to score yourself a front-row seat.”
– Newsarama
· “A strong contender for Comic of the Year” – 13th Dimension
· “Ant-Man #1 is that perfect debut that manages to both introduce the character to unfamiliar readers and tell a compelling story in the course of a single issue.”
– ComicBook.com
· “It’s funny, emotionally engaging, and easily accessible regardless of your familiarity with the character.” – IGN
· Nick Spencer and Ramon Rosanas set the bar for new Marvel books in 2015.”
– Comic Book Therapy
The reviews are in – and you can’t afford to miss one of the biggest launches of the year. Missed your chance to get your hands on a copy? Well, you won’t want to miss it again when the Ant-Man #1 SecANT Printing returns to comic shops in February!
Gi-ANT Size Reminder: FOC for Ant-Man #2 is Monday, 1/12. Retailers are strongly encouraged to check their orders on the second issue in anticipation of demand.
