JB Blanc voices Wrecker in EMH, not Rick Wasserman. Anyway, I'm glad they're introducing the Masters of Evil team that will become the Thunderbolts, but considering the title and description of the very next episode, I think they might be rushing things a bit. You have 26 episodes a season...

If a third season would not have been by the people who made the first two seasons (especially Chris Yost and Joshua Fine), then I’m glad they went with a new show, in my opinion. To this day, A:EMH remains my favorite Marvel animated show ever.

I liked how The Mad Thinker was portrayed on Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes (just before the breakout). I don't think he showed up in either the 90s or 2000s Fantastic Four series. I'd have liked to have seen more of him.

Looking forward to these episodes. Thank the heavens the writers realized that there are other villains in the Marvel Universe besides Red Skull, MODOK, and Loki. Of course, it seems like they're just having the Squadron Supreme be this season's Cabal, but it's still a breath of fresh air... for...

Valid point, and also, more voices = more expensive, and executives that oversee television animation tend to reeeeally not like to go over-budget.

From what I've heard (a couple of years ago), supposedly, there weren't a lot of radical changes, just some script tweaking here and there to focus on the big three (Cap, IM, Thor). Man Of Action had credits in only five of the episodes; the other seven may have been virtually unchanged from the...

My own personal preference is a more traditional Spider-Man cartoon like the 90s version or Spectacular Spider-Man. But to that end, I wouldn’t want them to try to revamp season 4 of Ultimate to be like that. If they’re going to continue the Ultimate show, it’s better they keep the format they...

The show is what it is. In my opinion, Season 3 has been a welcome improvement, and Season 4 looks and sounds interesting. I’d rather the show continue and run its course and then we get a new Spider-Man series sometime down the road that’s more traditional in nature, as opposed to having this...

I thought this episode was… meh. It didn’t annoy me 2% as much as the Ultimate Spider-Man episode a few weeks back, but I felt there were just some weak spots (which some other posters have already pointed out): 1. So, we’re going to Monster Island and the main bad guy is…. The Red Skull...

So they aired this episode out of order? Well, at least I can’t complain they’re treating this series better than Earth’s Mightiest Heroes. Anyway, I thought this episode was pretty good. I think the Winter Guard was handled pretty well, and good to see Crimson Dynamo and Radioactive Man...

In my opinion, I thought this episode was... OK. There was some decent action, Ant-Man was good to have around, interesting to see MODOK's transformation. It wasn't perfect by any means, but the problems I had with this episode are basically just the problems I have with the series as a...

In my opinion, this was the worst episode of Ultimate Spider-Man that wasn’t technically an episode of Ultimate Spider-Man. The Avengers noticing Spider-Man ‘narrating’ to nobody really disturbed me. OK, in Ultimate Spider-Man, when Spidey does this, thebackground freezes, in essence stopping...

More "Captain America and Iron Man have disagreements, but learn to appreciate each other"? It's episode 40 and beyond. Shouldn't we be past this by now? Is Cap and Tony's relationship even "broken" as of the end of episode 39? Also, why does the description for the April 12 episode make it...

I really enjoyed this episode. There was a lot of action, the Avengers fighting a classic arch-enemy, and just a really great battle overall. There wasn't any lame attempts at juvenile humor, and the action was fairly consistent throughout. I think this might have been my favorite episode of the...

Ehhh... I get the feeling they may not ever bother with explaining the relation between Avengers Assemble and Hulk A.O.S. The current Marvel shows just don't seem that vested in continuity. Remember when Jeph Loeb claimed Avengers Assemble was in the same continuity as Avengers: Earth's...

I get the feeling this episode was written with Tony Stark/Iron Man learning that skills can be more important and you can't always rely on tech, but the writers realized they had already done that in multiple past episodes, so they substituted Falcon (and possibly subbed Hawkeye for Captain...

Some people seem very happy USM seems to be getting a fourth season (is that still unconfirmed?). Some people seem very unhappy about it. I think I'm somewhere in the middle. I actually liked parts of seasons one and two, and season three as a whole has been pretty good overall IMHO. I do like...

They're premiering new episodes Tuesdays at 9PM? Directly opposite Agents of SHIELD on ABC? What are they thinking?!?!?

Not to mention children who only know about the Avengers through the movies and have quite possibly never picked up an actual physical comic book (the kind made from paper, ink and staples) in their lives.

The Circus of Crime got the drop on Iron Man, Thor, Hulk, Captain America and Black Widow, separately or together. Why didn't we get to see that? Now that they have control over four of the most powerful beings, plus a trained deadly SHIELD agent, and have stolen Stark technology, what's the...

$600 Billion?!?!? Forget a solo show- they should give Captain America his own NETWORK! *checks boxofficemojo* Oh, wait... it's only $600 million (with an "m"). Never mind.:sweat:

I'd probably have a collaboration of Greg Weisman and John Semper running the show; also, I'd have Josh Keaton voice Peter Parker, and Chris Barnes voice Spider-Man (Keaton was good as Parker with dramatic scenes; Barnes absolutely nailed Spider-Man's wit and quipping). If you don't mind me...

I thought this episode was a marked improvement over the past two episodes. Doctor Doom was written fairly competently, and I also like Captain America’s characterization. The episodes with Doom and the Cabal seem to at least have a little more focus than the non-Doom, non-Cabal episodes, which...

Have you seen the logline for the March 30th episode? The Avengers and the Cabal have a huge confrontation that leaves the team forever changed. Tony also learns that "the stats" can't be trusted every time – there's no substitute for human intuition. They’re now starting to include the “Moral...

An “embargo” against characters doesn’t make sense. If they can use Spider-Man, Fantastic Four Characters, and X-Men characters (whose movie rights are currently owned by Sony and Fox), why would there be “embargos” on other characters? If the writers come out and confirm that such “embargos”...

They’re clearly not opposed to using X-Men characters, although I do question their choices. Garrok this past episode and Mojo the next? Never mind that there are still plenty of Avengers villains they could use (not to mention Cap. America foes, Iron Man foes, Thor, Hulk, etc.): they’re already...

Actually, I thought the rock armor was kind of clever, all things considered. It was strictly used for defense, and had no offensive capabilities. I remember Tony explaining the armor (how it’s obsidian, it reflects lasers, it’s lightweight, vulcanized rubber, etc.). It probably wasn’t real life...

Roger Ebert famously once said “Never look for an objective critic. All criticism is subjective.” He once got a letter from a person asking him to keep his opinions out of his reviews. He wrote back and asked the guy to keep his opinions out of his letters. But for the record, I don’t think...

I haven’t seen Transformers Prime. Nor have I seen a lot of recent pop culture. I couldn’t begin to tell you what parts of any given TV show are original vs. what’s been done before. I have however, seen the Avengers movie. Furthermore, I’m pretty sure the writers have seen the Avengers...

I liked some parts of the episode. Some of the banter was entertaining (for some reason, I like the line about “putting the victory cake back in the fridge.”). But I still can’t say I thought the episode was too exciting. So the big bad gets captured by the Avengers way before the climax, is...

I also really liked A:EMH: It's my all-time favorite Marvel series ever. That said, I wish I could muster some excitement for this new show, but after 15 episodes, I just can't. A:EMH seemed to have a ton of characters, sub-plots, and nods to the Marvel Universe; this show doesn't seem...

I actually kinda like the Melter, believe it or not. Also, Mordecai Midas, Madam Masque, Firepower, Kearson DeWitt, Vibro- I'm sure there are even more. I remember Mark Gruenwald saying he regretted creating the Scourge of the Underworld, because he realized later that even characters generally...

If between now and the day I die there are, say, 5-6 different Avengers animated series, I'll probably still like A:EMH the best of all. It's not like any show could ever make me look back on A:EMH and say "That's no longer good." But I have been enjoying this new series; as long as they keep up...

Sorry, I'm not backing off of this one. They didn't need to use a villain with a "connection" to Deadpool. And what was his connection anyway? They both worked for SHIELD? If anything, if Taskmaster knew he was ineffective against Deadpool, he should have made a tactical retreat instead of...

Doesn't matter to me in the slightest. The point isn't Taskmaster vs. Deadpool, the point is the overall handling of Taskmaster in this series. Taskmaster was a well developed threat before, and here he was reduced to the level of Batroc, in terms of ongoing plot and competence. They really...

As someone who really enjoyed Taskmaster's first appearance in "Why I Hate Gym", I was disappointed with this episode. They waited over 35 episodes to bring back Taskmaster for this? He was set up as a genuine threat to Spider-Man and his team, was shown to have history with SHIELD, Fury and...

I liked it. I thought the way they handled the Space Phantoms was interesting. And I liked the dialogue... Falcon and Iron Man had pretty good back-and-forths. Overall, I enjoyed it.

Folks, I just wanted to let everyone know that I just saw "Ghost of a Chance" (the 3rd episode). And not illegally or anything... it was on my cable ON-Demand service (xfinity). So check your sources; you may be able to see it too!

I thought it was a good intro overall. I'm actually glad it's not bound by A:EMH continuity (Sam Wilson apparently was never Falcon before; when was the Red Skull "dying"?, etc.); better to just do it's own thing than to try to shoehorn a different series to it. I thought the action was pretty...

My sentiments exactly. FCBD should ideally get people to WANT to buy more comics of their own volition- not to pressure them into buying more to complete a story.
