Two hyper-realistic hand puppets engaged in an intense, humorous battle. On the left, Captain America, a Caucasian male puppet in his 30s, wears his iconic navy blue, red, and white suit with a star emblem on his chest, his face determined and slightly exaggerated for comedic effect. His shield is raised high, mid-swing, as he lunges forward with a playful yet fierce stance. Opposite him, Thanos, a towering purple-skinned puppet with a muscular build, grins mischievously, his golden armored glove glowing with power. His stance is wide and dominant, leaning slightly forward as if preparing to strike. Both puppets are intricately detailed, with lifelike textures on their costumes and expressive faces. The setting is a vibrant puppet theater stage, draped with red velvet curtains, bathed in warm, dramatic lighting that casts dynamic shadows. The atmosphere is lively and whimsical, blending epic superhero drama with playful humor. The perspective is front-facing, capturing the dynamic action and exaggerated poses. Colors are bold and saturated, with deep blues, purples, and golds dominating the scene. The puppets’ strings are subtly visible, adding a touch of meta-comedy. The style is a mix of hyper-realism and cartoonish exaggeration, evoking a sense of delightful absurdity.
