FIRST LOOK AT CAPTAIN AMERICAS NEW SUIT IN AVENGERS 4!After A Much-needed Shave, Cap Has Returned From

FIRST LOOK AT CAPTAIN AMERICA’S NEW SUIT IN AVENGERS 4! After a much-needed shave, Cap has returned from his emo phase, sporting a fresh new suit that blends the best parts of all of his uniforms thus far, whilst finally including the scales like in the comics! Just one thing left to see… “Get this man a shield!”

What do you guys think? Note: I’m aware there’s a few more pieces of leaked art out and about, but the quality of them is dire, so I’m gonna hang fire and wait for better versions of them to post.

“Today is a great day in Hollywood.”

Me: When I first picked up a camera and discovered I wanted to do nothing more in this life than tell stories through the lens of a camera, everyone else thought I was dreaming too big. I didn’t have many mentors or peers that wanted to pursue a career in cinema and television that looked like me or came from neighborhoods similar to mine. Representation was scarce. Now, I pull energy, good vibes and high hopes from these faces: black and brown men and women telling OUR stories whether it be in front of the lens or behind it. I finally feel like my dreams are closer than they appear, obtainable even more so. Seeing this masterpiece created by Lacey Duke (as seen below), finally makes me feel like a part of a really cool, exclusive club. These are the portraits that will decorate the walls of my home someday. Follow #strongblacklead on IG now for more!
