Posted byBy Joe Cohen | Published on: CommentsComments (0)

The hype continues for The Avengers as its gets closer to the May 4th release date. With the bombardment  all the graphic art posters, multiple trailers and TV spots, it’s hard to think of anything else, not to mention that is looks awesome.

E! Online has revealed a short featurette that focuses on the Black Widow, the S.H.I.E.L.D. agent played by Scarlett Johansson. She made her first appearance as Black Widow in Iron Man 2 and critics have mentioned that she is better than ever as the assassin superhero.

The first clip released, which featured Black Widow’s creative abilities to get out of sticky situations, supports what the critics are saying.

The film also stars Samuel L. Jackson, Robert Downey Jr,. Chris Hemsworth, Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo, and Jeremy Renner.

When an unexpected enemy declares war on planet earth, Nick Fury, the director of the peace keeping agency known as S.H.I.E.L.D., travels the globe to recruit a team of people with an extraordinary set of skills to defend a planet on the brink of disaster.

The Epic showdown between The Avengers and Loki’s army begins May 4th.

 

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
