Hell...even Xavier & Magneto are more recognisable than Captain America

Then he should try harder to be interesting enough to garner a blockbuster movie... 😗

Or a decent animated series

I don't see why Marvel hasn't produced an Iron Man animated series - it would play well considering how kids eat up mecha anime from Japan.

They need to get off their asses and make an Avengers cartoon that is at least as decent as the JLU series

No one in Britain knows who the f**k the Avengers are (unless they are comic geeks like me)

I'm not sure whether it's better to first establish characters with the public individually and then as a team or vice versa. You need characters that will serve as a draw to ordinary viewers, and imo none of the most prominent Avengers really even come close to the established branding of a Superman, Batman, WW or Flash.

I know... it sucks ... 🙁

They should give them small cameo appearances in the next few Marvel films.... mention them in passing in Spider-Man 3 .... maybe have Pete try to call them for help/advice... Maybe have Iron Man or Thor do a fly by....have them appear in the newer Spider-Man cartoons, Make a one off feature length X-Men/Avengers animated movie (cheap, but well written to just get them more into the public eye)

They really should have mentioned them at some point in the previous X-Men film...especially Cap

Hmm upon further thought, two Avengers do have relatively global brandname recognition Wolverine and Spider-Man. So they could use them as a launching pad. But that also means in a team show about the world's mightiest, two of the 7-10 slots and most of the airtime would be taken up by streetlevellish heroes purely for marketing purposes.

marvel may have less iconic heroes but their heroes r easily more people friendly and realistic to most people by far easier to relate to
