Avengers

The Avengers were a group of the world’s greatest heroes who first teamed up to defeat Thor’s evil brother Loki. The original roster assembled was Iron Man, Thor, Hercules, She-Hulk, Wonder-Man, Goliath, Rage, Ant Man, and Wasp. Captain America was made the team leader when Thor freed him from his imprisonment in the Doomsday vortex. This group was seen in the Fantastic Four animated series episodes: To Battle a Living Planet and Doomsday. They helped to battle Ego the Living Planet and Doctor Doom, but failed to do so. A new team of Avengers was reassembled by Ant-Man after the previous team broke up because of Loki’s mischief. This new team was the main characters in The Avengers: United They Stand.

The series primarily used characters from The West Coast Avengers. Heroes included Ant-Man, Falcon, the Vision, the Wasp, Wonder Man, Tigra, Hawkeye, and Scarlet Witch. Both Hawkeye and Scarlett Witch previously appeared in Iron Man. Despite appearing in promotional images and in the title sequence, The Avengers' "Big Three" (Captain America, Iron Man, and Thor) were featured, though Captain America and Iron Man guest appeared with Thor slated to appear in the second season. Other characters that appeared were Ultron, Kang the Conqueror, Egghead, the Masters of Evil, the Grim Reaper, the Zodiac, the Swordsman, the Circus of Crime, the Sub-Mariner, Attuma, Agatha Harkness and the Salem's Seven. In the first episode Beast, Black Panther, Hulk, Namor, Quicksilver, and two unknown heroes were seen in portraits.
