![]() ![]() ![]() Armed with his indestructible shield and and battle savvy, Captain America has continued his war against evil both as a sentinel of liberty and leader of the Avengers.Ever since Comic-Con 2012 kicked off this past Wednesday, the word âround the campfire has been that Mondoâs biggest releaseâthe one everyone would be talking about after the Con, the one that everyone was going to be determined to get their hands on, the one print to rule them allâwould be dropping on Saturday night.  There didnât seem to be any concrete info to support this suspicion, but that didnât keep poster-nerds the world over from repeating it whenever they got the chance. And ya know what? Even though limited-paper enthusiasts are generally 5/10 when it comes to predicting drops, they were absolutely right about tonightâs release of Mondoâs The Dark Knight Rises print by Olly Moss.Read all about thatâand the rest of Mondoâs Saturday-at-Comic-Con outputâafter the jump.Believe it or not (âIâm walking on airâ¦â), Comic-Con 2012 is already nearing its conclusion. It seems like only yesterday that 100,000+ people were boarding flights en masse on their way to the San Diego Convention Center. As it turns out, that was actually four days ago, a realization that perfectly illustrates that old saying:  âTime flies when youâre spending way, way too much money on colorful pieces of paperâ.And weâve certainly been doing plenty of that here at Limited Paper. Over the past few days, weâve picked up a slew of prints, including stuff from Tom Whalen (whose Land of The Lost print popped up at the Huckleberry Toys booth on preview night), Mark Englert (whose Alien-themed You Are My Lucky Star print debuted at the Gallery1988 booth), Jason Edmiston (whose Hand of Ming print finally popped up in a non-$10,000/giclee print format at Edmistonâs own SDCC booth), andâof courseâvirtually everything released by the dapper gentlemen over at booth #437.That booth, of course, belongs to Mondo, and has been the source for some of the biggest lines drawn at this yearâs Comic-Con. All week long, Comic-Con security has been struggling to figure out how to deal with the Mondo-poster demand, even as the passersby unfamiliar with the Mondo phenomenon have struggled to figure out why 500 people might have appeared out of thin air to spend $50 on a single movie poster. Big stories and footage reveals might be coming out of Hall H every hour on the hour, but on the exhibitorâs floor, Mondoâs presence has been the big story of Comic-Con 2012.And today, they prove that all of the attention is deserved, starting with Martin Ansinâs long-awaited Game of Thrones poster.  The printâthe third in a series started in conjunction with the fine folks over at HBOâs smash-hit fantasy seriesâwas one of the biggest draws of the Con thus far, resulting in a line of hundreds that stretched out, around, and away from the Mondo booth as far as anyone could see. Letâs take a look at that print now: Three months later, he was given his first assignment as Captain America. Rogers was then put through an intensive physical and tactical training program. After weeks of tests, Rogers was at last administered the ‘Super-Soldier Serum’ and bombarded by ‘vita-rays.’ Steve Rogers emerged from the treatment with a body as perfect as a body can be and still be human. Overhearing the boy’s earnest plea, General Chester Phillips offered Rogers the opportunity to take part in a special experiment… Operation: Rebirth. However, because of his frailty and sickness, he was rejected. Horrified by the newsreel footage of the Nazis in Europe, Rogers was inspired to enlist in the army. Here’s the official synopsis:īorn during the Great Depression, Steve Rogers grew up a frail youth in a poor family. Jackson, Toby Jones, Dominic Cooper, Tommy Lee Jones, Neal McDonough, Stanley Tucci and Richard Armitage and is directed by Joe Johnston. Captain America hits theaters on July 22 and stars Chris Evans, Hugo Weaving, Sebastian Stan, Hayley Atwell, Samuel L.
