This election is still a dead heat, according to most polls. In a fight with such wafer-thin margins, we need reporters on the ground talking to the people Trump and Harris are courting. Your support allows us to keep sending journalists to the story.

The Independent is trusted by 27 million Americans from across the entire political spectrum every month. Unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock you out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. But quality journalism must still be paid for.

As Avengers: Infinity War gears up for release, multiple new TV spots have been released by Marvel, teasing the upcoming blockbuster’s villain: Thanos.

“You are strong, but I could snap my fingers and you would all cease to exist,” says the Mad Titan during the most recent clip.

“I looked forward in time to see all the possible outcomes,” Doctor Strange says at another moment, to which Iron Man replies: “Did we win any?” Strange offers no response.

Infinity War, which marks the culmination of 10 years of Marvel movies, has already set records — the first full trailer quickly became the most-watched trailer within 24 hours ever.

American ticket sellers Fandango say the Russo Brothers-directed movie became the fastest-selling superhero movie within a 24-hour period, beating previous record holder Black Panther within just six hours.

Half an hour of footage was recently shown to the public, the reaction being overwhelmingly positive.

Meanwhile, Black Panther — the titular character from which features in Infinity War — continues to smash box-office records, becoming the highest-grossing superhero movie of all time in the US and overtaking Titanic.

Infinity War touches down 27 April.
