Cap_Ironman Weekly News, Week Ending 01 July 2012

[garrideb]

Welcome to the cap_ironman/cap_ironman newsletter. First things first - the mods are running our annual poll about mod elections. You can vote until Monday, July 9th. Next, tags! If it is your first time posting a fanwork, you will not have a creator tag. The mods will do their best to create one for you within a few days of you posting your fanwork. After that, however, you will be able to use that tag yourself. The tag will be x: your_user_name, for example, x: garrideb. When you post a fic, fanart, craft, or vid, add your creator tag so other users can easily find your other works. Also, our spamming policy: simply put, please wait two days between posting fanworks of a similar nature.

What's been in the news? Well, this story - misleadingly titled Captain America and Iron Man Wed at NYC Comic Bookstore actually has nothing to do with Steve and Tony, but it's a cute story all the same. In relevant news, The Avengers will be released on September 25th on blu-ray and DVD. Here's a rundown of the special features. Any you're especially excited for? I'm a sucker for gag reels. Captain America & Iron Man #633 came out this past Wednesday. Thoughts?

Feel free to chat about any topics in the comments, but please keep it reasonably safe for work.
