The first Ant-Man poster for the highly anticipated Marvel blockbuster movie has been released and it is appropriately tiny. Although Paul Rudd's title character is human-sized, a clever take on his superhero name fueled the direction of the campaign. First it was the 'ant-sized' teaser trailer and now the Ant-Man poster.
The Ant-Man poster was tweeted out on the official Ant-Man twitter page with the caption, "Heroes come in all sizes w/ the 1st #AntMan poster!" Those who are unfamiliar with this particular story line will find themselves curious to see how such a superhero can stand amongst such Marvel peers as Thor, Iron Man, Captain America and more. People will have to wait to see.
