Today sees the release of the Avengers in DVD and blu-ray in the United States. Most of my readers will be picking this up, but the big question is where to buy it from. A release like this has retailer exclusives that should be considered when you head out the door today with your head full of Hulk imagery and cut scenes.

All DVDs will include a special code that can be entered at this Disney Avengers hub where exclusives can be obtained such as this excellent poster by Matthew Ferguson.

Here's the run down on the retailer exclusives (click on any of the images to order and no, I do not get a cut of any purchases made)

Exclusive Avengers Season One graphic novel. This is part of Marvel's latest attempt to pull in non-comic book fans with comics that do not rely upon established continuity and instead offer up an adventure that is friendly to those people who would wait in line for a midnight showing but never set foot in a comic shop.
