Aw lawdy, I LOVE the new Avengers show! They made everyone interesting and badass in their own way (even Pym and Jan, whom I initially cared not for). And the little cameos are awesome (OmgWolverineOmg), the character moments are great (where do i begin? Thor`s epic hugs, Tony waiting for his "ride" in a cornfield etc) and the whole way the individual stories are spun together in the greater narrative .... very very exciting stuff!

It makes my Marvel heart grow!

Me too..

[steverodgers5]

Feel like I've been waiting most of my life to get a half decent Avengers show, so I'm so glad that one's finally here. I especially love the fact that right now it's the actual original Avengers, and that at the end of their 2nd adventure...

SPOILERS AHEAD-

...The Hulk leaves for much the same reasons he did at the end of the 2nd Avengers issue. I really hope they now make Cap his replacement just like in the old issues..

And yeah Jan is just adorable. I hope this somehow leads to somebody later on bringing her back at Marvel, (since obviously Bendis won't in his annoyingly long term run on the title...)

I would watch, except A) I don't have Disney XD, and B) THEY HAVEN'T PUT THE NEW EPISODE ON THEIR FUCKING WEBSITE YET.

Seriously, of all the channels to put it on, why the one I DON'T get? I mean I watched the minisodes, I watched Breakout, I want to watch this, GIVE IT TO ME NOW!

[terrykun]

I will join you in being angry. I don't get Disney either.

[blackruzsa]

WAIT, YOU SAID NEW EPISODE!
I watched all the micro episodes, where did you watch the full length?

[arilou_skiff]

It's on Itunes for you yanks.

For others there are... Other means.

[nezchan]

Who you callin' a yank?

[nezchan]

Just looked on iTunes, it ain't there. Certainly not under the name "Avengers".

Also: Holy crap! $42 for a season of old Astroboy dubs from the 80's? That's insane!

[arilou_skiff]

I suspect it's only there for the yanks (or possibly even not there for the yanks and for someone else, I know someone else managed to get it)

Googling for "Avenger's Earths mightiest heroes itunes" leads me to this page: http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewTVSeason?id=394671628&s=143441&partnerId=30&siteID=lz678fQmnf4-kxtljLpDHU.TC9i8txqEGw but it tells me that I don't HAVE itunes installed, which is a dastardly lie. (I suspect it's region restriction thingie)

[nezchan]

Same here, it may be a really stupid thing that assumes if you don't have the Mac version, you don't have it at all. Especially since I already had iTunes open and am listening to music on it.

[neuhallidae]

I bought the itunes season pass yesterday (Tennessee resident here), so it's there for somebody.

[jlroberson]

Uh, twenty megs choked their server?

I spent an hour uploading photos to our server yesterday morning. Fifty of them, taken of a press conference. Each was twenty-FIVE. Not any problem.

Their server SUCKS.

I think this may be supposed to be set a bit earlier than the present day, like the late '90's or so, working on the theory that this is at the BEGINNING of Clark's career, and we'll see him a few years on having come into his own as Superman. If so, you can chalk it up to the march of technology.

[arilou_skiff]

I love the new Avengers show. Jan and Pym are adorable!

[greenmask]

That is a brilliant face, Jan.

[tacobob]

Yeah, the show is fun. I love the slow moments or the odd ones..Hulk getting cranky over lateness. Thor trying out one of the Avengers's beds.

[terrykun]

I could totally watch a series (at least a six episode mini) of just them hanging out at the Mansion, with the occasional excursion for burgers or poker with Ben Grimm.

[tacobob]

I wonder if they can use the FF? They did mention Reed Richards in one of the episodes.

[aelflar]

Motto! That would just rule!

Also, nice to see a Marvel show that doesn`t take place in its own little bubble! So far we`ve seen Logan`s cameo (and he`s called Howlett to boot), little hints about the Punisher and Man Thing, the MRD (so mutants are obviously around). Reeds is mentioned too! Yayness...all we need is Spidey..but I guess he still belongs to Sony? Or not? i get confused...

[iconmuse]

When did Jimmy get so cute and hot? <3

[terrykun]

When he became one soul patch short of being modeled after Owen Mercer. ;)

[icon_uk]

Have to demur there! He's looked extremely nice in the past, long before Owen Mercer was a convoluted gleam in Geoff Johns eye.

[icon_uk]

He looks here quite similar to how he looked in the 2003 Maxi-series; Superman: Metropolis

[mullon]

Lois wants to give an opinion in one of her articles. I'm very disappointed in her.

[geoffsebesta]

Fox or NPR, she gets to choose...

[halloweenjack]

Janet looks like Black Alice switched to henna. Clark looks like a drip.

[ulf_boehnke]

Let's have a beautiful faces thread.

[sindra]

Mmmmm.....hot Jimmy is hot.

[psychopathicus_rex]

So Jimmy's latest incarnation is basically Johnny Storm as a photographer. Hmm. Guess I can live with that.
Also - huh. I wasn't even aware there WAS a new Avengers show.
