Cap_Ironman Weekly News, Week Ending 14 August 2011

[valtyr]

Hi guys! Another week, another newsletter. And another year, another rec week? Last year we had a week of rec posts. Is there interest in doing this again this year?

I know we have a fair few fanmixers in the fandom, so I thought I'd draw bigbang_mixup to the comm's attention; a slightly different format of Big Bang where a fanmix comes first, then fic based on it, then art.

Not much news this week - apparently Norman Obsorn and the Dark Avengers will be back. I include this because halfway down there's a picture of Steve drinking from an Avengers coffee cup, which I find cute. There's also discussion about how the Avengers will be having a huge line-up change.

Also, if you go to the Captain America bio at the Marvel site, under Related Characters Iron Man is first. As is right and proper.
