Eva Longoria Desperately Researching Wasp?

Look who was caught on camera at Marvel's headquarters with a stack of Avengers comics under her arm! Word is Eva is boning up on the character of Wasp, and I'm sure there are lots of fanboys that would help her bone.

Marvel Studios' dream line-up for the Avengers movie includes Robert Downey Jr. as Iron Man, Ed Norton as the Hulk, but a recent visitor to the Marvel offices may have given away who will be playing the team's tiny insectoid supergirl, the Wasp.

FlawedHollywood.com snapped these photos of the Desperate Housewife when she visited Marvel Studios this weekend, and what are those thingys she's taking with her? Just a few of the most recent Avengers comics!

Could this portend that the petite actress will play Janet Van Dyne, a.k.a. the wasp? All is speculation at this point, but the comics character and Longoria's "housewives" part do have some similarities.

Both characters are tiny gals who have been victims of abuse. That part is pat. The question is... Can glamorous Eva also pull off the bit about being a scientist slash superhero? Let's hope so. CBM would like to see her in the role! How about you?
