So, I had a *bit* of a day the other day. I was one of the people at the comic book store when The Late Late Show stopped by with like, 13 Avengers.
It was amazing and completely overwhelming and, once I’m not knee deep in writing/work, I’ll be making a longer post where I explain everything that happened and how Sebastian Stan was the biggest sweetheart to despite me freaking out. (If you watch the video, you can see the moment I spot him – I’m right behind the two guys greeting Letitia and telling her how amazing she is – and can also hear my gasp as I ascend into a whole new level of fangirl panic).
Anyway, it was the best day. My comic book store guys are the best. And the cast were absolute sweethearts and I just….still can’t believe that was real life.
This post is entirely spoiler free for anyone who has yet to see Avengers: Infinity War.
It’s finally here. A cinematic event ten years in the making, the entire Marvel cinematic universe collides in today’s release ofAvengers: Infinity War. After a solid decade of theory after theory, we will finally know who lives, who dies, and if Stucky will ever be canon.
With more than 16 million engagements, #Marvel is the fifth most popular brand on Tumblr in 2018 thus far—right behind #BTS, #Voltron: Legendary Defender, and #Overwatch. To celebrate, let’s take a look back at which Avengers have dominated the Marvel conversation.
The people behind the superheroes
When it comes to the MCU, there’s a trope of naming the films after the main superhero’s alter ego. To separate the films from the characters as much as we could, we’re using a strict real name policy for this list. It’s no surprise that Tumblr’s first boyfriend, Loki, takes top honors. Following him by less than 1% is our favorite memelord and STEM superstar, Shuri. Here’s the full breakdown:
Two years ago, Sebastian Stan was declared Tumblr’s newest boyfriend. What a trend! Right behind him is Tom Holland, who was the No. 1 celebrity on Tumblr back in 2017. The rest of the list reads like a beautiful poem full of people we cherish:
If you follow our weekly ships list, you’re probably familiar with Stucky, but the rest of the list might surprise you. In a Fandometrics first, we have a three-way ship—a.k.a. a thruple (!)—on the list. Congratulations, thruple shippers! And congratulations to Tony Stark, who appears in 60% of the top ten ships.
