Welcome back, my friends, to the superhero show that never ends ... although, come the fall, it does tend to shut up shop just a little and head towards the small screen because it's cold outside and, well, you know how it is.

The post Cape Watch: Hulk and Hawkeye Will Lead the New Avengers Movie appeared first on WIRED. Continue reading at 'Wired'
