The Expendables 2 Comic-Con poster hits the web.

A new  Comic-Con  poster for Expendables 2 has made its way on the web.  The first thing you will noticed about this testosterone charged artwork is that it is filled with guns, guns, and more guns. It also has an orange and blue hue to give it that retro look.

Sylvester Stalone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis, Jason Statham, and Terry Cruise are packing some serious heat, while  Jean-Claude Van Damme’s legs are his weapons of choice.

Lionsgate will be handing out  signed collectors’ editions of the Expendables 2 retro posters at Comic-Con. 250 limited-edition prints have been produced on specialty canvas paper for the event.

Bruce Willis, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Dolph Lundgren, Jason Statham, Jet Li reprise their roles from the first Expendables, while cast newcomers  Jean-Claude Van Damme, Liam Hemsworth and Chuck Norris join the band of kick-ass masters.  Although this film consist of too many 80’s/90’s bad-asses to list, would it have hurt to add Action Jackson star Carl Weathers .

The Expendables 2  lands in theaters August 17th, 2012.

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.
