Check out the first look at the cover to Uncanny Avengers #1, the Marvel NOW book launching in October by Rick Remender and John Cassaday!

---

Today, Entertainment Weekly posted the cover to October's Uncanny Avengers #1, which revealed a major plot point about the outcome of Avengers vs. X-Men: Captain America, so depressed by his fascist actions during the event, binge eats to find some semblance of happiness. Indeed, Cap appears to have put on at least thirty pounds in the cover, and with the increased metabolism afforded him by the Super Soldier Serum, a known performance enhancer, he must have been eating a lot to gain so much so quickly. Perhaps the story will involve Cap finally getting in touch with the true spirit of America, and along with morbid obesity he will finally open up a MySpace account and start watching Nascar.

Comic book fans are no strangers to the perils of obesity. This reporter weighs 800 pounds, and needs to be lifted out of bed by a small crane and placed at my computer desk so I can write snarky articles about comics on the internet, an activity that, shockingly, has not helped me to lose weight. Regardless, we expect our comic books to represent more idealized superheroes in peak physical condition, and, in the case of female superheroes, with big boobies. Hopefully Captain America can get his life back on track and stop reminding us of our own pathetic shortcomings, and go back to kidnapping children and exterminating all mutants.

Cover is posted below.

Maybe in the 616 Cap annually beats Joey Chestnut?

Ugh Havok's mask is ugly.

[Timbales]

Wanda, for once could you put your tits away?

[Jack Burton]

I don't like the "Ultimatizing" of Cap's costume.

[GHERU]

That is not an attractive cover

[sdsichero]

Wanda, for once could you put your tits away?

You SHUT. UP.

Hmn Cap doesn't have the shoulder pads in this cover...

[e_galston]

Why does rogue need gloves, you would think now that she has her powers under control she wouldn't need them, and they would just be in the way for when she actually wants to take someone's abilities.

Ugh Havok's mask is ugly.

Yeah, Havok mask is bad, why even have a mask.

[GHERU]

At first I was wondering why Bullseye was on the team

[GHERU]

Yeah, Havok mask is bad, why even have a mask.

so no one learns his secret identity

(pssst, he's really Adam X)

[Gladiator X]

from what I can tell, this one is an easy "pass".

[Apache Chef]

Cassaday took on a tough perspective to draw from with this cover....and he didn't get it right.

[Cat-Scratch]

The Scarlet Witch looks okay as is Wolverine. The rest are horrible. Really bad. It's like bad cosplay.

Wanda, for once could you put your tits away?

I don't like the "Ultimatizing" of Cap's costume.

Same here. Leave that sort in that crapfest universe. Hell, the Avengers EMH show used the Ultimate design for the Skrull! They got it.

[Victorian Squid]

They look stumpy. That perspective trick is hard to pull off. See the Morning Glories covers, some of them pull it off expertly.

This looks like art you'd see in one of the old fanzines, by amateur artists.

[Log-Man]

Wanda, for once could you put your tits away?

Hell, that's the most conservative outfit I've ever seen on her!
