The Avengers: United They Stand (1999) [TV] TMDB Bangumi
The Avengers: United They Stand Season 1 part of TV Series: The Avengers: United They Stand
director: Ron Myrick actor: Linda Ballantyne / Tony Daniels …
This series tells the stories of Marvel Comics greatest general membership superhero teams (as opposed to a family organization like the Fantastic Four or a minority group organization like the X-Men). Led by Hank Pym as Ant-Man and Janet van Dyne as the Wasp, they fight evil around the world and beyond against threats like Ultron.

Boy, that sure was written in the 90s. But anyway...

That was all right. I like how the show featured characters who otherwise tend to be sidelined. When you think of Avengers, you probably think of Captain America, Iron Man, Thor... nope. They appear briefly in the intro and get cameo episodes, but otherwise don't feature in the show. Instead we have a team led by Ant Man, which includes Wasp, Hawkeye, Falcon, Tigra, Scarlet Witch, and Vision. And technically Wonder Man, but he spends almost the entire series captured or otherwise incapacitated. I wasn't following the comics at the time, so I'm not sure whether this was the active team there or whether they were chosen just for the show, but either way I think it made things more interesting.

(And yes, I'm aware that all of these folks have been Avengers at some time or another, and that Ant Man and Wasp were founding members. Not the point.)

My biggest complaint really, is that the show ends on a cliffhanger which suggests there were supposed to be more episodes, perhaps another season entirely. But no, just 13 episodes which fail to wrap up all the plot points they introduce. Lame.

Middle-aged slacker with casual interests in video games (particularly, but not exclusively, simulation and retro games), Japanese light novels, and comic books. Recently spending a lot of time with my new media centre. 80s was peak era for anime and cartoons. Early 90s pretty good too.
