We've been big fans of the geek-oriented rapper Adam WarRock -- a.k.a. Eugene Ahn -- for a while now at ComicsAlliance, spotlighting his Scott Pilgrim, Doctor Who, and Ira Glass-themed tracks, and generally shouting out his nerd-friendly hip hop stylings. Today, we're pleased to feature the debut of his new mixtape, which has a theme I think will be very familiar to most of our readers: The West Cost Avengers.

WarRock recently quit a career as a lawyer to focus full-time on rap, and after listening to tracks like "Wonder Man," the heartstring-pulling "U.S. Agent," and the Ice Cube-influenced "Hank Pym" (featuring a cameo by our own Chris Sims), I can't help but think he did the right thing. (And as you may expect if you have listened to any rap ever aside from Will Smith, there's some salty language involved.)

If you like what you hear, stay tuned: the Adam WarRock official debut album, "The War for Infinity," drops on September 23rd in digital and CD formats, and (spoiler) may involve songs regarding a certain Infinity Gauntlet and/or War.
