Marvel Gives Fans The Ultimate Choice: SHIELD OR HYDRA

"Captain America: The Winter Soldier" broke open the Marvel universe and exposed the dormant members of HYDRA hiding inside S.H.I.E.L.D. ranks. Now fans can test where their own loyalties really lie.

Marvel launched the sweepstakes #SHIELDvsHYDRA on Aug. 18 to promote the "Captain America" sequel's DVD release. Fans are asked a series of five multiple-choice questions to determine whether they remain loyal to S.H.I.E.L.D. or hail Hydra.

As a bonus, one lucky fan will have the chance to win a trip to the Los Angeles premiere of "Avengers: Age of Ultron" next year.

Questions include what characteristic you value in a colleague and what division of intelligence you prefer to pursue. An algorithm then calculates the answers and reveals which side the contestant/agent truly stands with.

Agents then will complete a mission of five trivia questions over the next four weeks. Each week the sweepstakes will choose an agent from each side for smaller prizes like autographed posters, a subscription to a Marvel comic book and flash drives.

Disney will then announce the winner of the grand prize, the Avengers 2 premiere tickets, after the fourth week of missions, which will be around Sept. 22. The winner and a guest will receive round trip tickets to Los Angeles, hotel accommodations and passes to the premiere.

Contestants can earn more entries into the final drawing by sharing their results on Facebook, Twitter and Tumblr. A minimum of 10 entries is necessary to qualify for the weekly drawings. The maximum allowed entries for the duration of the sweepstakes is 150.

"Captain America: The Winter Soldier" is available on Digital HD on Aug. 19 and Blu-Ray on Sept. 9. "Avengers: Age of Ulton" premieres on May 1, 2015.
