In the same vein as "What was your forum username inspired by?", we have "How'd you pick your avatar?"!
Me, even though I like the movies, video games, TV shows and all that, I got started on this roller coaster ride with comic books. Growing up, the staples of my reading pleasure for the week were Marvel, DC, Epic, Valiant, and a few others, but the bulk of my reading came from the Marvel side. It's kinda hard not to empathize with Peter Parker when you're growing up geek as well, ya know? Anyways, the Captain America avatar I have is the photo of the distressed t-shirt that I own, and it's made out of that really thin, comfortable cotton. Got it 2 SDCC's ago, and will be wearing it again at this year's. Then again, who won't be wearing something of the like that week?
Let's hear it folks! How'd you get yours?
