If it's the same one I saw starting tomorrow, it's on Toon Disney, and is actually a rerun of the old Avengers United cartoon. That being said, I will still be watching to "indoctrinate" my kids.

292 TDIS 6:30pm MST The Avengers 7:00pm Spider-Man Unlimited

Ibndoctrinate them to do what, exactly?

Read DC comics?

Watched it last night. My mind had blanked on how incredibly bad it was.

"Lets make an avengers Cartoon! Let's not include Cap, Iron Man or Thor! Lets give them weird Costumes! And a really strange looking Quinjet! And Make Hawkeye act like a Whiny Wolverine! And Battle Armor!"

Yeah, I finally watched it and I had forgotten how bad it actually was. However, my kids enjoyed it. They did keep asking me where Iron Man was though.


Well; the story is a bit off; but not by much; Thor and Iron man were only in the first couple issues and didnt come back for a long time; The Capt didnt come in until about issue 7 or so; I forget which ;can read back and check; but he too took hiatus a few times. Hawkeye was always a complainer; was his big drawback and character flaw until he became leader of the West Coast Avengers. Several of the plot lines have been right out of the comic; the Avengers comic was really poorly written for the first 100 issues or so as well; so it isnt a real surprise that this show is not great. I like it though; I have no idea what is with the mixed up Vision/Wonderman thing. Many of the villian have been true to form; but the stories and which Avengers are in the team have been changed; Tigra for example; was only in a short time and was basically to weak to be an Avenger. Wasnt it back in issue 10 or 15 that Swordsman basically trashed all the Avengers; that is what happens without Cap; Thor; and Ironman. heck; the Falcon was a Capt America spin off having been Cap's partner for so very long; but then the Xmen movies have been all screwed up in timeline also; I dont know why these movie and animation guys have to mess up perfectly good stories that got our interests in the first place; but, they invariably do every single time - the louts.

I have been watching the Ironman comic and I think it is much worse.

And what's wrong with a Mullet?

<-- proud owner of a mullet since 94.

As to the Iron Man Cartoon itself, the writing was patchy, when it was good, it was fun, when it wasn't, it was painful. The Mandarin was too weird under the 'lets not alienate anyone' catagory, and Wanda was horrible. Her powers don't work in a cartoon setting, since it requires exposition to explain what she's doing. Clint got shafted again, since his persona in the comics was a mix of Hawkeye/US Agent.

I think replacing Wanda with Jan or Greer or Bonita or any other female Avenger with the AWACs would have been an improvement.

Amusingly, replacing the War Machine with the Warwear Eildoon would have worked better for Rhody, allowing the writers to make him less of an Iron Man sidekick.
