One day before the second trailer for The Avengers is expected to hit the Internet, Marvel released one incredibly action-packed poster.

Robert Downey Jr's Iron Man is front and center as the rest of the team lingers in the background. Also notice that none of the superheroes are wearing headgear or masks. And based on the poster, New York City will be a major target as fire and brimstone reign down.

The Avengers, directed by Joss Whedon, focuses on Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.), Thor (Chris Hemsworth), The Incredible Hulk (Mark Ruffalo), Captain America (Chris Evans) and Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson), who join forces with Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) to battle the forces of evil.

The movie will be released in 2D and 3D on May 4.
