Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes appreciation thread!
 
Just a thread for avid fans of this show, talk fav characters, episodes, DVDS etc etc.

I personally loved the show and will miss it greatly, my fav episodes are meet Captain America from season 1, New Avengers from season 2 and yellow jacket.

Biggest disappointment was Drake Bell re-dubbing Josh Keatons lines in season 2. Since I am a fan of the Spectacular Spider-man show as well.

Also anyone have any ideas if they plan to release a complete season 2, or complete boxset of season 1 and 2 with the missing meet Captain America episode on it?

It was the only good Marvel cartoon in recently memory that didn't get canceled prematurely. 52 episodes was a good run, that's about the length most DC cartoons go on for.

Marvel has only gone downhill from here, with Ultimate Spiderman, Avengers Assemble, and the new Hulk cartoons all being terrible.

Couldn't agree more, what was y our fav ep?

The very last episode. All the characters coming together to defeat Galactus.

This is actually one of my least favorite of the show. I thought it was really rushed. That's just me though.

I was more amazed at how much they were able to fit into a single 22 minute episode.

Loved the series. Wish we could've gotten a 3rd season with Chris Yost at the helm.

My favorite episodes were centered around the Skrull invasion in S2 (Who Do You Trust?, Prisoner of War, Infiltration and Secret Incasion). As far as standalone episodes, I thought Ultron Unlimited (where Vision joins the group) was the best.

Worst episode was easily Powerless. It was so bad they didn't even air it on DisneyXD.

EMH was definitely one of my favorite cartoons from Marvel. Really would have wanted to see a 3rd season.

I love this show!!
Funny fact, "Powerless" was written by Avengers Assemble, And Ultimate Spiderman writer Man of Action. Anything with him is terrible.

I think you mean "Anything with them is terrible". Man of Action is group composed of four. Which is too bad, because they did such a great job on shows like the original Ben 10 and Generator Rex.

Generator Rex! I completely forgot about that! Man, I loved that show!

Also, I didn't know it was four people. I thought it was only one. Whatever, I guess Marvel cartoons aren't their thing.

I also recommend watching the "Thor Vs. Hulk" DVD movie, its in continuity with the series and takes place right before it. The same DVD also has "Wolverine Vs. The Hulk" and that special takes place with Wolverine and the X-men.

TheBlueTurtle1 07-23-2013 01:42 AM

I loved the last episode as well, and I love Wolverine vs Hulk. Bit more adult based.

I really wanted an Avengers and X-men episode based on the X-men from Wolverine and the X-men.:(

Well I finally finished watching A:EMH, I started watching it as it aired but never got around to the second season after the long hiatus. So it had been like 2 years since I had seen the first season. I had already heard that it wasn't as good as the first and I wonder if that affected my opinion.

I remember S1 while not being as great as Young Justice, it was still a great fun action show with a lot of charm. And while I still had a blast watching the second season I did feel like something was missing. Also since it had been so long since I had watched the first season I didn't remember many of the remaining story arcs they left for Season 2 and the "previously on" segments are so random I don't think they ever helped me, I wasn't lost but I do feel maybe it would've helped the enjoyment. I didn't feel the interactions were as strong this time around and some of my favorite characters didn't get as many great moments, I missed some of the charm Wasp had in S2.

The pace of the show is indeed very fast and it has pros and cons, I do love that it's a Marvel 101 class in only 52 episodes they go through decades of Marvel stories, but it also makes you want to see more of specific parts of the "timeline", I mean by the end of the show how many Avenger members were there? They gave them out like candy every other episode, I know it was done to have all the major Avengers in the comics get their spotlight in the show but it makes it feel rushed when the run is only 52 episodes and not hundreds and hundreds of comics. I love all the references it has and I'm sure it has many more that I just don't get, and again it just goes too fast sadly. Too bad the show couldn't last longer, after all the original order was 52 episodes so it only got one run even if it was later divided into "two" seasons.

And with this show we finished the short run of great Marvel cartoons that we had. Such a shame since the Disney acquisition we're back to bad Marvel shows.

Yes, so officially this universe is officially with Wolverine and the X-Men and that movie. I wonder if there are others of the "Marvel DTVs" that fit in this universe "unofficially", most of them fit better with the "Ultimate Avengers" DVD continuity. Also I'm willing to bend a little and make the 2000's Fantastic Four:EGH show in continuity, it was a great take on FF and besides Doom being portrayed terribly there it doesn't fit without many problems. I can also see this spider-man being an older version of Spectacular Spider-Man just for the sake of having all the other separate recent Marvel cartoons in one universe. What can I say I like my continuity convoluted.

Was that conformed as canon? I always considered it canon, but I didn't think it was officially.
