New retro Captain America poster arrives online

*A new retro _Captain America_ poster has popped up over the weekend,
featuring a WW2 propaganda-style shot of Cap punching Hitler in the
face.*

Designed by comic-book artist Paulo Rivera, the artwork is hand-drawn
- like the posters for _Super 8_ and _The Three Musketeers_ we brought
you last week - and is really brilliant.

100 limited edition prints are to be given to cast and crew, though
thanks to the magic of the internet you can see it below:

Posting on his blog, Rivera explains how it came about:

“To prove I was up to the task, I did a _Captain America_ poster
"on spec" (which was later used as the cover to a movie tie-in comic).

“As it turned out, the job was already taken, but they liked my
work well enough to commission a "vintage" poster that would be given
as a gift to the entire cast and crew.”

_Captain America_ opens in the UK on 29 July 2011 in 3D.
