Captain America Cover Analysis
This magazine cover if for Captain America, a famous superhero. The background on the magazine is the American flag, this conotates that its set in America or that the majority of the film is to do with America. Also the flag loos worn suggest a battle scene or a war taking place during the film. The anchorage of the cover is that the main image is in front of the masthead suggests that the actor and character are bigger than the magazine and will sell it. Also the man in the image has a serious face making it look like there is a battle or war taking place as his fist is clenched and has a shield in hand. Also the lexical choice for the magazine uses words like 'Magazine of the year' which makes the audience want to buy the magazine as they use buzz words to catch the attention. The house colour is white black and yellow, this shows that even tho that captain america even though he has different colours, that they are not as important as the main ones of the magazine, the colours of captain america are dark to fit in and not over power the magazines house style. The magazine also has puffs and pugs grabbing the readers attention making them want to buy the magazine more 'meet the first avenger' this shows that they are aiming for comic book fans as they will know who the avengers are big in comics and want to get all fans of Marvel comics to go and see the film
