Our Phase One Remastered project comes to a close as we head back to 2012 and re-examine The Avengers - Marvel’s first billion dollar hit! Rob and Will take you behind-the-scenes on the production of the movie to learn about how Marvel kept all the MCU characters co-ordinated, how the original version of the movie featured a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT VILLAIN, why Mark Ruffalo replaced Ed Norton as the Hulk, and how Thanos was only added at the very last minute! Plus we’ll go behind-the-page to learn about the history of the superhero team, how Marvel borrowed heavily from the Justice League, and how the creation of the Avengers was all due to a big mistake at Marvel!
Then we’ll deep-dive the movie to bring you our reactions to every scene, examine why this movie was such a success and what makes it so great, and we’ll bring you stories from the Marvel Comics like who tried to catch the Hulk in a net, what happens when Iron Man tries to fight Thor, what happened when the Black Widow tried to assassinate Nick Fury, who was missing from the original Avengers line-up, plus tons more Marvel history and trivia!

We take you back to Saturday mornings in the 90s with the Marvel Action Hour and Iron Man The Animated Series! Rob and Will explore Marvel’s attempts to become a “mini-Disney” in the Nineties, how they merged with huge toy company ToyBiz, founded an animation studio and how Marvel ended up OWNING TV stations all across America! We’ll also learn that the Nineties were a time when Iron Man wasn’t exciting enough to front a series on his own, so Marvel packed the cartoon with FORCE WORKS, an extreme version of The Avengers that featured Hawkeye, Spider-Woman and Wanda!
This clip is taken from our full episode deep-diving into Iron Man The Animated Series
