It’s the Movie Avengers featuring the Marvel back up dancers!
… lower left. Who are they trying to hide? That BETTER not be Alpha…
Hulk AND Thor… this team wins.
And finally… an even bigger roster… with MORE heavy hitters… and they’re still having to use Wolverine/Spider-Man to boost sales?
Well, I like the idea of them two being in the big league now. As for Wolverine it’s a logical progression… and though he is a mutant, and has been with the X-Men for decades, being an Avenger suits him better. There’s the idea as well, that Wolverine sells books, but putting that aside, he’s among the few mutants who are really Avenger material. I don’t like Spider-Man being an Avenger and a FF member though. He should be only on one team, not both. He’s not Wolverine. Wolverine may not have a life, except the constant brawling, and jumping from one adventure into another, but Spidey has. Let’s say he could be on a team, he’s a veteran player now, has been around for a while, he could be an asset for a team, but the FF’s sciency ways are better suited for him. On the Avengers he’s mostly filler anyways. (except what he did in AvX, with the Rasputins, though I liked that very much, it seemed very far-fetched though)
It never bothered me when Spider-Man had 4 different titles, how he was supposed to have 4 different storylines every month. But Wolverine being on the Avengers when he has his own book, 2-3 X-Men books, it just seems stupid that he would also be in the Avengers.
You know, I still don’t like Spider-Man and Wolverine on The Avengers. At all. It really bugs me.
