Hello and welcome to the weekly [livejournal.com profile] cap_ironman/[community profile] cap_ironman newsletter.

Okay. Newsletters are a thing that this comm does. Not so much of late apparently, but your Modly Team of Mods is now starting them up again.

For those not following the news in the past few weeks, a couple of big things have come up. The first is that Jon Favreau won't be direction Iron Man 3. No word yet on who will, but it looks like RDJ will be getting a veto on it. The second thing is Marvel's next Big Event (yeah, I know they promised they were going to lay off those for a while. The cake is a lie) which is to be called Fear Itself, by Matt Fraction and Stuart Immonen. Nice picture of Woobie Steve, anyway, though apparently that is not a clear indication of Marvel's plans for Bucky!Cap (contrary to previous rumours).

Cap seems to be in every comic ever right now. You'd think there was a movie out or something. I'm particularly enjoying the Hydra mini, what are you folks reading Steve in these days? How about Tony?

In comm news, please enjoy the master lists for our very successful Holiday Gift Exchange (thank you so much to all participants! Great effort everyone!), and a rather belated list for last year's Reverse Bang (go check out all the fic and art!).

When you skip three weeks, there's lots to round up! )

Finally, if you're a new or recent member, hello and welcome! Our rules are here, and in the profile; this includes our warnings policy, so please read. If you're interested in the ship, you may want to read the Ship Manifesto, and consult the list of Slashy Moments (Now at one hundred and fifty moments). If you're planning to write for the comm, there are some tips on writing the pairing here, and the Avengers in general here; if you're having trouble finding a beta, or would like to offer your services as a beta, our beta list is here. If you're looking for the comm archive, it's Tales of Suspense, and it's automated - you can create an account and upload your fic. If you're looking for a particular story, why not try [livejournal.com profile] cap_im_finders? If you have any questions, you can comment here or PM a mod, that's me, [personal profile] garrideb and [personal profile] valtyr.

And feel free to post on-topic or off-topic stuff in the comments to this post! Just keep it reasonably safe for work, please.
