Marvel’s THE AVENGERS have officially joined Twitter! Now, don’t get too excited, as there isn’t anything “new” just yet, but there is the news that there WILL be a 30-second Super Bowl Spot, and that’s pretty damn sweet.

Here’s the official announcement to get you revved up:

Marvel Studios announced today that they will be sponsoring a Global Twitter Chat on Tuesday, January 31, 2012 at 11 a.m. (PST) with cast members and the director of their highly anticipated action-adventure “Marvel’s The Avengers,” opening in theaters on May 4, 2012.

The 30-minute live tweeting event features writer/director Joss Whedon and cast members Tom Hiddleston and Clark Gregg. Fans around the world will be able to participate in the Q&A on Twitter by using the @Avengers handle and the #Avengers hashtag. Participating fans will have the opportunity to see a 10-second tease of the 30-second Super Bowl spot that will air during Super Bowl XLVI on February 5 on NBC. They will also have a chance to answer “Avengers” trivia for a chance to win “Avengers” prize packs.

All you Avengers lovin’ but Twitter hatin’ folks may want to jump on board at this time. Really, Twitter ain’t so bad. It’s not that different than reading a daily newsfeed. Only with more @ and # symbols.

THE AVENGERS. May 4th. I’ll see you there. In costume. Possibly drunk.
