The long-awaited trailer for Avengers: Infinity War has finally landed, and we already have plenty of questions for Marvel’s mega superhero mash-up (like what’s up with Thanos’ face?).

Such serious commitment on Marvel’s part, then, would seem to warrant some serious analysis on our part. And we do mean “serious.” This isn’t just an excuse for bald-faced objectification — goodness, no.  Read more…
