I like both looks. I just wish they made action figures of the EMH characters

Show me the actual quote where Loeb says he is against those specific things. Your own bias shows because you are already condemning Avengers Assemble for Falcon making a joke about his cell phone when all your favorite shows you think are so superior had similar lines frequently.

I agree with Dent on the cell phone line, it was lame and very USM-ish. It had that juvenlie 'insert humor here...' vibe that is so prevelant in the new Spidey series. Instead of engaging us with more organic humor, it takes away our enjoyment. The jokes bang us over the head with a giant clown mallet. Will give it a chance to prove me wrong.

Well that is inherent and goes without saying considering it's coming out of my mouth (or keyboard as it were). I'm speaking for me obviously, but seeing as a lot of people share the same opinion, it's a valid complaint.

Even Ultimate Spider-Man has recurring storylines and issues that carry over from one season to the next and one episode to the next. The first part of this season established the various members of the Sinister Six and culminated in the group coming together to go after Spider-Man as well as an ongoing story with The Lizard. So this idea that Ultimate Spider-Man has no serialized storylines that fans try to apply to the series is both false and wrong. Quote:
In fact, Wasp as a hero in Earth's Mightiest Heroes was constantly played as the comedy relief and spouting one-liners in whatever situation they are in. Quote:
After Captain America is thawed, many jokes were made out of Cap adjusting to modern society. He didn't get the technology Stark was using, he said something about a projectionist doing with the display. Thor made a joke about JARVIS talking. That was in line with Cap's character. In this version Falcon is a new, younger hero and he's excited to be in the Avengers. So it's humor that comes out of his character. In Earth's Mightiest Heroes, the Wasp enjoys being a hero and is excited about it and most of her lines are like 75% jokes.

I think Falcon's jokes are organic and not forced. He's a young rookie hero excited to be in the avengers. Spider-Man asking to be a sidekick is arguably meta-humor in kindergarten form. A hero like Spider-Man asking Cap to be his sidekick.

Looks like the same old boys club that is the Avengers in media outside of the comics.

Holy wow does this look terrible. That cell-phone joke might be the lamest thing I've ever heard.
The animation also looks horrible. I'll give it a chance, but this is not looking good. First time I see a character turn into a baby or a barking dog, I'm done. |

I'll be honest, it must be personal preference but I don't care for the designs or the animation for this over EMH or TSSM. Much like USM, I think the designs are bland and have no real visual flare. Nonetheless, I'll check this out when it airs, but like most my expectations are tempered.

Or he just wants to keep his access to Loeb for interviews. That's what I was told by one of the administrators at ToonZone when I was writing reviews for Worlds Finest and Marvel Animation Age. ![]() |

Meh, the cell phone joke doesn't bother me that much but I need to see a whole episode before I can really judge the series.

Just saw the first episode on iTunes. It seemed kind of soulless. There was a bunch of action but none of it was engaging and neither were the characters. Kids will probably like it but I just didn't find it fun or witty. Just another cartoon.

It has potential... Wasn't great, but wasn't horrible either.

Who are you to tell me I have terrible taste in TV? Do you know what TV shows I like? Do I like Keeping Up with the Kardashians? Jersey Shore? Yes I must have terrible taste in TV. I only interviewed Jeph Loeb once last year, so that administrator is also wrong. Especially since I write for Toonzone and I've written for Marvel Animation Age as well. Care to try again?

This seems to be the more active Thread, so I'll just re-post my opinion here.

It's a sad state of affairs when I'm not bothered about watching a Marvel TV series

Actually that was probably the most equal I've ever seen Thor and Hulk portrayed outside of the comics.
