Nearing are the days when you're considered a nerd if you aren't into the Marvel superheroes. Someone's fifth grade bully is getting a harsh phone call pretty soon... I knew our time would come...

But this is no time to think about vengeance; this is a time to focus on The Avengers!

Marvel Studios will be visiting New York Comic-Con for the first time this year, and bringing with it a panel for the upcoming super-movie, The Avengers. Visiting with the panel will be castmembers Chris Evans (Captain America), Tom Hiddleston (Loki), Clark Gregg (Agent Coulson) and Cobie Smulders (Agent Hill), as well as producer Kevin Feige. Additionally, Marvel will present never-before-seen footage from The Avengers, which is always a big sell. The best news: we'll be there reporting live from the floor!

This event is scheduled for October 15 from 6:30 - 7:30 pm so you can check in at Hollywood.com from a live report from the event.

The Avengers will reach theaters May 4, 2012. And everyone is going to see it.

Now to practice my triumphant laughter...
