The Avengers, but without Joss Whedon or Phil Coulson

So Marvel's got a fancy new Avengers series coming up on the 20th on Disney XD (Disney Channel for boys).

The_Avengers_-_Earth's_Mightiest_Heroes_promo.jpg

Much like the movies, an Avengers adaptation requires some setup. So they're releasing various mini-episodes leading up to the main series, when the heroes finally come together.

So far I'm really enjoying it, and I've been watching them with my kid sister, explaining what I can before each episode. Our favorite is the Ant-Man one, even though this is my first exposure to the guy.

I swear to God this refrain singer sounds like Tom from Blink-182

Anyway, they seem to be releasing episodes every day, so I figured we could talk about them as they come out.





This can totally double as a Young Justice thread, as there's about to be a trailer and a bunch of info coming out of NYCC. The show will have a one-hour special on Cartoon Network in November, but the rest of the first season won't air till sometime next year. I'm really looking forward to it-- more so than I am Avengers. I'm still in mourning over Weisman's last project.

    That's really old concept art, actually. From like a couple years ago.

    He looks fine in the trailer.

    I am so excited for Young Justice. It will probably be less fun than Teen Titans, but still.

    It will probably be a lot better, though.

    And I liked most of Titans.

    It will probably be better, but I just hope for a minimum of teenage drama. Why does everybody think that actually appeals?

    Depends. Teen stuff sucks on a lot of shows.

    But it was one of the best parts of SpecSpidey. I often cared more about what was going on between Peter and Flash or Peter and Liz than I did about the superheroing.

    So I actually wouldn't mind teen drama on Young Justice.

    It's funny since RDJ took the role of Iron Man no other actor satisfies me as him.

    Also Nick Fury is not black enough.

    Other than that looks pretty good!

    That show exposed me to Paste Pot Pete.

    So that automatically puts it in a good ranking for me.

    What's the point of having teenage superheroes without teenage drama?

    I like Thor's intro.

    Hell, I pretty much just like Thor. He's pretty awesome, shame they didn't use his current costume though, which is really much nicer than the old-school one.
