I mean, Loki is essentially the real villain of episode 1 (and season 1 as a whole) since he's the one who caused the breakout that freed gravitron (plus the 74 other villains). It's the biggest similarity between EMH, the MCU Avengers and the original comic: in all 3 of them, the Avengers are formed after fighting a big threat directly caused by the machinations of Loki (the Hulk in the original comic, Gravitron in EMH and the Chitauri in the MCU). In that way, it's best to think of Gravitron as less of the Loki of EMH ep.1 and more as the Chitauri of the first episode. He's the big dragon launched by Loki that the Avengers can't beat individually and that serves to highlight how strong they can be together. Granted, if you just watch ep.1 on it's own, Gravitron really is the only bad guy and you wouldn't even know that Loki's involved. But that's why it's tricky to compare a movie with a tv show episode. The former is longer and mostly self sustained (tho relatively speaking for the MCU) while the latter is much shorter and *asks* that you watch the other episodes for context. And while Gravitron might not be that strong of a standalone one-off villain, he works perfectly as a piece of the bigger puzzle that is EMH season 1.

Wanna know a big difference between the two? Hulk as a character. With personality and agency. It's one thing having 5 or 6 characters with a giant bag of muscle but those same characters and a heavily misunderstood and intimidating literal double personality character means a lot. One of my faves moments was when hulk identified an energy signature to be cosmic radiation to Tony and he was just floored.

I think its an "expectations" thing. That live-action is were everything is taken seriously, so all the characters are either irreverent to the weirder stuff from the comics or are reimaged to be completely different from their comic selves, (which I think is something left over from how they approached the first Iron-Man that has annoyingly persisted). Its an approach that's quite bizarre ,not being serious in an effort to be taken serious, especially when compared to the Batman, X-Men and Spider-Man, which did take their material seriously but also poked fun at it as well. _"This is starting to sound like a bad comic book plot."_ for example. For a while now I've seen these as the MCU's biggest flaw, that lack of reverance, the samey meta humour, and overcompensation to be "grounded" when so much insanity has already been portrayed. It kinda undermines what their trying to do.

A similar plot thread could have been loki raving about how he isnt alone and more will come for the stones ( only he knows about the infinity stones at this point) and before thor takes loki back brice banner stops them he says if what loki says is true then we have to be ready, not to just avenge our friends ( refrencing coulson) but ready to avenge the planet, if more are coming we need to be ready to stop them, At this point black widow could hand out a comms device Each sperate but with the intention of reuniting

If Jeph Loeb and man of action hadn’t interfered and supervised it. EMH would’ve continued

One of my favorite parts about how this show sets up the Avengers and the wider Marvel universe is its willingness right out of the gate to embrace the wacky world of comics. From the get-go heroes and villains just exist, and that does a lot for me compared to the MCU. The MCU starting with the first Iron Man really felt like a world that was just starting off, when you watch that first film it never feels like there were any characters prior to Iron Man, and I find that the more they go back and add characters set in the past it feels pretty clunky because it never felt like a world where anything like that existed prior to that first Iron Man film. Captain America I'd say is the one instance where it worked because it was so far removed due to just how far back it was set, but Captain Marvel still has me scratching my head a bit trying to line that film up with the wider MCU. I feel like the 'casualness' of EMH is maybe its greatest strength in many ways, characters from the wider Marvel universe can just show up with no backstory or setup required, you need a Masters of Evil, boom they already exist, and in doing so that immediately establishes each hero as having their own little universes going on without needing a whole episode (or film in the MCU's case) explaining them. It also makes it so easy for other characters to show up like the Fantastic Four and just saying in one exchange that Doctor Doom exists and they've been enemies for years, it feels so natural within the world. It's strange that I feel the MCU has still struggled to capture this since so many other superhero films have. The Incredibles is a great example where you don't see much, but there's enough subtle touches that clearly establish the world as being full of heroes and villains. I get the MCU wanting to have a real world grounding point to help audiences relate to it, but I feel it slows down a lot of things, like you said it feels like the team somewhat stops being a team at the closing of that first film, and it never really feels like the Avengers either on their own or as a team do much between films. I'm still waiting for a villain who we as the audience have never seen before in the MCU to show up, but whatever hero they're fighting is just like 'oh yeah, I've fought them before'. The closest I feel we've got to that is the Thor films but even then they're rarely what I'd call casual encounters built upon an unseen history.

I really think the Hulk stuff works super well in EMH!

The problem with MCU is that it focuses too much on humour, the villians are rarley a threat aside from a very few ones, some of the main characters in the MCU have been done dirty with poor handling & writing like The Hulk, Spider-Man & Thor for example. While Avengers: Earth's Migtiest Heroes on the other hand, actually respected the original source material & was a show made for both old & new fans alike. I still prefer Earth's Mightiest Heroes over a lot of the majority of the MCU films, because it was actually good show & treated the characters of the original comics with respect. While MCU over time showed it's true colours that the films are just made to milk money from consumers who a lot of them have this mind set: "Don't ask questions. Just consume product & then get excited for next products." But that's just my own personal opinion.

I think I would have changed three things with the first Avengers movie to better set up the team: 1 - Loki says that some greater force won't stop - a "you may have won today, but he'll win the war" 2 - Tony and Thor take Loki seriously and try to form the team, however, SHIELD/Hydra have other concerns which creates discord (this could be discussed in the credit scenes) 3 - The team is formed, but sent to different locations - Thor to Asgard w/ Loki, Tony and Bruce stay put for now, and Steve joins Natasha and Clint at SHIELD; however, the team is largely split over the next course of action and it should be displayed in later movies As for how the team is split - I would say that Tony, Clint, and Thor are on one side (being prepaired) while Steve, Natasha, and Bruce are on the wait and see side. Other than the issue of fitting MCU Hank and Janet into the story, I do think it would have been cool to see Hank and Janet as part of the Avengers rather than making them older Avengers. It would have been cool to see or mention more Avengers during Age of Ultron. If the long term anger was removed (or at least less strong), then it could even work for an older Hank to have worked with Tony and Bruce on the Ultron Project, but then Age of Ultron creates the bitterness when Scott becomes Antman (it would need to be done right, but could work). I think it would also help if Ironman II was rewritten to mention an increase in large scale crime, which could be part of the reason for Tony's dislike of SHIELD. I would also increase the number of Avengers before Civil War so that we could exclude Clint and Scott (let them be retired/part-time rather than betray their families). I'm debating changing Ironman III to have Tony talking with Clint rather than Bruce, or maybe both Clint and Bruce (I want to include Clint in more than just the team up movies, but I don't think he fits in for the action in the three movies before Age of Ultron). The movies after Civil War are where changes will need to be bigger, but I also think that some of the movies can still happen. Also, if Avengers Asssembled was supposed to be connected to the movies, then I would have the events of Avengers Assembled be reworked so that it was additional canon information, but wasn't required for the movies to make sense. Avengers Assembled would be where the other Avengers get introduced, we get more backstory for Clint, we meet villains that aren't in the movies, and the original six are not the focus. In fact, Thor wouldn't appear until the end of Season 1 or beginning of Season 2. Each season would try to fill in events between the movies, so we could get some of the aftermath of the first movie, then how Tony helps before rebuilding the armor, and by the end of Season 2, Hydra bases are being wiped out regularly (Age of Ultron implied that this was a regular thing and could motive people to watch the show). Seasons 3 and 4 would show the increasing number of superhuman individuals and show the difference between Tony and Steve leading up to Civil War. Maybe add another two seasons before Infinity War, and this set focuses on the after math of the Civil War and brings in the last new heroes (I'm less set on having this set, but it would make sense to have some). After Infinity War and Endgame, there could be a season for the initial aftermath of the Snap and then wrap up with some of what happened during the time skip (I'd love to see some more Tony with Pepper and Morgan as well as how he hung up the suit). If the movies and Avengers Assembled had been planned out more for interconnectedness, then I think it could have worked well to have the TV show run with the movies. This way there was some extra information as well as a potential for more hype around the movies as well. Only the TV show would rely on the movies, but the movies could make small nods to the TV show.

Keep it up there is chance that this show might come back.

Something I would like to add is that the breakout plot was lifted from the New Avengers 2005 comic

I think the the connection between The Avengers movie and the AEMH pilot was good and I think the EMH one was the best version.

Maybe something the MCU could have done was make the alien attack truly change the entire world. Organizations like AIM, HYDRA, maybe even Hammer Industries could salvage and use the alien technology to create weapons and advance their technology (basically what Vulture did in Homecoming, but on a bigger scale). This would give them incentive to keep the team together continuously. Maybe even use it as a way to introduce villains that have been around for a while but have been under the radar until the Avengers start actively dealing with threats in their free time. They also could have had events in Agents of Shield have more of an impact on the movies (seriously, there is never even a single mention in the movies about inhumans and how they were showing up worldwide)

Honestly, I don't think adding a moment like that would be a good idea for the MCU. It worked great for EMH, but in the MCU I don't think it would be feasible for a simple reason: they have different goals. EMH's episode seeks to start a show where the status quo is an avengers team working together to combat a threat. This is a good setup, and it requires a moment like the show has to justify. However, the MCU does not want that status quo. The first avenger's movie seeks to set up a status quo of various tangentially connected movies starring one or two heroes, with occasional events where the "avengers" actually do anything as a group. I like this format for the MCU because it allows new people to jump in on a random solo movie, and because it makes avengers movies feel special. This only works because "the avengers" are barely a thing. They started as a onetime gig and transformed into a group that works together every so often but mostly each member does their own thing. If you put a moment like you have in EMH, and then proceeded with the MCU format, it would feel completely wrong.

EMH pilot is right from the "New Avengers" comic issue 1 with the same name. But it was a different team. Spider-man, Captain, Iron-man, Lake Cage, Spider-woman and the Sentry and Wolverine.

Congrats on 1k Subs, loving the EMH videos! :)

I think a problem the MCU has always had is that everything started off in a completely normal world, where every superhuman and/or supernatural occurrence needs to be explained and justified. In my opinion, it would've been better to start off in an Incredibles-like world, or in a world like the EMH one itself, where superpowered people behind every corner are the norm already, and the Avengers are simply a group of them deciding to hang out together.

My only complaint about EMH is I would have liked to have seen more of the escaped villains. What if say Winter Soldier tracks down Red Skull, except it's the Chameleon? Or Falcon has a tense air battle with Vulture and the Vulterions? Have the Masters of Evil take over the mansion like they did in the comics with Hercules being almost killed, then soon after introduce the Thunderbolts. I know that the show didn't last long enough for all that, but it would have been nice.

I personally think EMH as a whole can Top anything the MCU brings. But the entire MCU as a whole, well EMH can't really compete with a decades worth of movies, shows, and content. So personally I love them both it's just there are somethings both universes did good and bad. Well EMH the probs only bad thing in my opinion is that the 2nd season finale felt kinda rushed and the set up for more seasons went to waste...

Eh. I don’t think The Avengers needed that moment. It’s a little too “tell, don’t show”. Besides, we see Thanos towards the end, which gives us a face for future machinations in store. We see Tony converting Stark Tower into Avengers tower. And Fury even says the Avengers will be back “because we’ll need them to”. It would have felt redundant.

When it comes to the main difference you talked about, I think that ultimately comes down to the type of medium the MCU is compared to the show. EMH at its core is an Avengers animated series that planned to continue telling stories about the team. The MCU on the other hand is a movie franchise beyond just the Avengers. It’s a shared Marvel universe including those of solo and group movies. They had the team go their separate ways so they can star in their own solo movies because team up films with ensemble casts like the Avengers probably needed build up in the eyes of the producers. These ensemble movies were meant to be like big series finales or comic crossovers. That’s why I’m fine with how the MCU handled that front.

i cant express how happy I was to find your channel and all the love you give EMH. i was the only kid who watched it in my friend group, everyone else would rather just watch the movies instead but my true love was THIS show

God this show was the best, when they canceled it I was so sad

So glad to get more videos on this it's such a good series

This is why serializations work better in general. It’s a continuous story, something that happens every couple years.

This is the only piece of media I’ve ever seen give full reference to the Big House.

Yeah, I don't think it would have been feasible to have the MCU Avengers be a team that sticks together (like in EMH) instead of a group of people who meet occasionally (like it is in MCU). The reason is that it wouldn't be possible to output so many films as the MCU has done if each and one of them had ALL of the big-name stars who comprise the Avengers cast, because those actors are quite expensive (and busy).

Interestingly, Red Skull was supposed to be the villain for the MCU Avengers(or at least I'm pretty sure that was the initial plan). Which means the plot to CONTINUE the team after the film could have been the search for Hydra (something we did kinda get in Winter Soldier).

There's a lot of similarities between the worlds presented in EMH and the world presented in the animated movie Next Avengers: Heroes of tomorrow. Do you think that's where it all leads? Is that the future of these characters?

Was Breakout the pilot? I remember there being episodes before it like the one where Iron Man fights Hydra after it attacks the UN and which Chekhov’s Guns the existence of the Raft when Hill asks Fury if the other supervillain prisons were the same as The Vault only for Fury to say “all four are different” “Four? I thought there were only three” and the one where Hulk fights Absorbing Man only to get captured by Hulkbusters and warns Doc Samson “they’re trying to make more of me” and the one where Klaue confronts Ant-Man and Ant-Man laments that “no one wants to talk things out anymore”. And the one where Thor goes back to Asgard to fight Loki and gets into a kerfuffle with his father Odin. It’s been a while since I watched it but didn’t those episodes happen before Breakout?

I think, technically, breakout is the pilot, but there were individual mini-episodes released beforehand which would later be retrofitted into the pre-breakout episodes you’re talking about.

@matityaloran9157

Ok. That makes sense, since I saw those before I saw Breakout.

The problem is that the movies didn’t want them to be a permanent team. For multiple reasons. 1 they weren’t sure if it would succeed. 2 they wanted to have future solo films. Partially if the Avengers didn’t work out, and even if it did the solo movies would also make them more money. So if the movie ended with them still together it actually would’ve hindered their plans for the franchise.

I haven't read the comics but heard some say the series handled secret invasion storyline better than comics is it true?

I think there's pros and cons to both, but EMH definitely weaves it into the world and plot better in my opinion - it's set up well in advance and continues to effect the world afterwards. That being said, most of the time you know for certain who's real and who isn't, which is maybe a missed opportunity?

Emh felt more like a team than the mcu avengers coz they did the little things as well eg stopping a random villain on the street frequently. The only time the mcu avengers gather is for a extreme level threat eg ultron and thanos

Some of the factors that makes this Avengers EMH better than the MCU is their portrayal of The Hulk and Black Panther

Huh? Why do you say that?

There is a petition to get a season 3 with a decent amount of votes... But it hasn't led anywhere yet...

a plot threat that could keep the avengers united, could be the tesseract. If after the end of the movie they somehow lost it. The reason they are united in age of ultron is because of loki's scepther that also has an infinity stone. They got the thief, fot havent found the money. And that thing already caused so much destruction in the planet since how long.

Don't get me wrong, I agree with you overall and I love EMH to death, but simply due to the MCUs need for solo movies, it wouldn't be as clean if the avengers stayed "fixed" more or less as a team. It could be written around, sure, but it would've probably been more trouble than it was really worth for the writers of the MCU, whereas it makes perfect since in EMH because it's literally an avengers show

I'm actually planning on (indirectly) talking about this issue in another video soon. It won't be the next EMH video I put out, but it will likely be the one following that.

I love your channel

What would keep the avenger's together at the end of the movie? *Cracks neck* here's an idea: The mind stone and the space stone touch tearing through the avengers. Hulk can't turn back to banner, the arc reactor malfunctions leaving Tony's brain half relying on Jarvis, Steve becomes blind but sees his past life on replay, old spy conditioning wipes Natasha's mind and she becomes a near mindless weapon, all of Clint's remaining arrow heads go off behind his back causing all sorts of injuries, and Thor gets trapped inside of Mjölnir. They are all sent to a high-tech, Shield, medical/R&D facility, but the doctors can't help them, they have to lean on each other to get back to being themselves for a 3rd act battle against as member of staff who used to be a prisoner/patient, and clues of their stay at the facility are littered everywhere.

I mean after avengers marvel didnt really spend time with origins for some other their other big name villains like zemo, task master, cross bones, the "mandarin" ect. We could have had a scene on the helicarrier at least name dropping a few of these characters as being possible threats giving the avengers the intuitive to track them down and the plus side with the villains not appearing out of no where and dieing in the movies they appeared in

Yeah. The MCU mishandled most of the villains anyway

One thing I liked about this show is this one comment made about a villain. Small time villain. Whirlwind is a guy who had the power to rotate himself and turn into somewhat of a tornado. Basically he turns into Taz from looney toons. Anyway, someone in shield was going over his file (Since he escaped) and was reading facts, and in doing so admitted that Whirlwind was a mutant. Not only was this something I did not know about the guy, this was the first animated series, aside from Spider-Man meeting the X-Men, that acknowledged that they were in the same world. Most cases they forget the other exists. X-Men evolution came out years earlier, and turns out Captain America was fighting Nazis shoulder to shoulder with Wolverine and saving a child Magneto from a concentration camp. I watched this show WAY late. 2012 We Need More Of This Shit!!! Webs of world building FITTING together.

They're both great, but the MCU had to leave room for heroes to continue their own individual films, so it makes perfect sense that they didn't stay a team right away

Lore of Assembling the Team: How Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes Beats the MCU momentum 100

Watching this video with subtitles on. At 0:44 “Earths Mightiest Heroes” is “earths mightiest terrorists” in the subtitles 😅😂

2:35 correct me if I’m wrong, but I’m pretty sure that truck in the background is overlapping the diner seat. Once you notice it, you can’t see it.

This difference is the epitome of the disparity of medium. With shows and comics, they are built on the premise that *something* will always come next, that the current issue will have a follow up, but with movies they are built to have a beginning and an end, with as few dangling threads as possible. Its partially why so many superhero movies don’t translate perfect between adaptions, as movies are always trying to create a resolution, when in comics there is no need for one. EMH ends on a note of: there are all these villains, so “we have to be there” MCU ends on a note of: the big threat at the end is defeated, so in future “we will be there” This difference is a subtle one, but one is open ended, and one is conclusive, which aligns with the core disparities between sparse unserialized mediums, and dense plot driven mediums

Didn't EMH start off as bunch of shorts that were stories told over multiple parts about some of the characters?

Yeah, online mini-episodes that were later re-edited into episodes proper, but I think technically the breakout episodes were considered the pilot.

Graviton was in AOS and it was pretty great

Unrelated but EMH Thor's comment about Hulk being an ogre confirms that Hulk vs Thor movie never happened despite vusing the same voice cast.

I guess it’s whichever setup you prefer. The MCU set up the Avengers as a team that would only assemble when the stakes were high enough that the world was in danger. The EMH cartoon set up the Avengers as a team that would continually work together, and even live together, in order to defend the world on a day-to-day basis. I suppose with the more grounded tone of the MCU, the Avengers being a non-constant team makes a bit a more sense.

Isnt the similar plot thread the MCU should have had sorta self evident? We know Thanos was gonna be the big bad somehow by then already, heck we know Loki was working for someone interested on Earth for reasons. Thor fucks off immediately to deliver Loki and see what Asgardian intel has to say, Earth based heroes form a network so they have a better chance of figuring out, maybe oust a few other potential unknown big boss agent. Would evne make agr of ultron stronger, since now Tony's secret plan connects to the overall mcu plot, not just a "i got secret ptsd from the nyc stufd btw, amd workes behind everyone back sorta". It is "this was what i was working on for this pet project of ours, didnt feel like i needed to ask anyone else but the fellow science man".

It’s an original snippet I put together using some royalty-free loops from looperman.com

I think that’s the point of the end of the Avengers, they *aren’t* a full-time team. It’s not until the events of the Winter Soldier that Captain America & Black Widow realize they need a full-time Avengers team outside of SHIELD, to track down and defeat Hydra. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that Cap & Widow are the only Characters of the original 6 that stay on the Avengers after Hydra is defeated (and later, after the snap).

Why?

I’d just like to remind everyone that Reed Richards has smacked his wife and child multiple times. This is important because the reason Hank Pym isn’t a main character in these movies is because they didn’t want to use him because of that

I think probably the big reason for why the Avengers all split off to do their own thing at the end of the movie was that all the movies that follow are more solo adventures, like how Thor: Dark World is about just Thor, or Iron Man 3 is about just Iron Man. The Avengers movies are supposed to be big events, and keeping the heroes apart until those big events lets those events feel even grander, but I do think that robs us of more interactions between the heroes. I do wish that after Avengers 2012, they used the Avengers as an excuse to have heroes show up in other characters' solo movies more often, like Hulk in Thor: Ragnarok or the rest of the Avengers in Captain America: Civil War, but with phase 3 come and gone, I guess we'll just have to hope for the future movies to be better.

I Would have had Doctor Doom (making a deal with Loki) steal the tesseract along with wakandan technology to create a weapons that would upgrade his already unstoppable military to be able to invade the UN and declare world rulership, then shield would have started the Avengers initiative and contacted iron Man,Thor, Ant-Man, and wasp (the original team) to stop this new horrible threat, but due to the lack of synergy and teamwork, they failed the first time, causing Doom to begin his assault of world domination, seeing that the Avengers have failed, shield went with their second alternative , the HULK (dr. Banner has been off the grid for some time, however Black widow hunting down and tells him of the danger, banner agrees only on one condition, he never sees shield or anyone else again) once the hulk it's initiated, half of Doom's army is crushed metal, however doom and Loki (knowing that they're both Masters of magic) manage to subdue banner ultimately making a bigger monster than before, after reforging their bond, The Avengers take on one final stand against Doom, they succeed, however the hulk is a different story, almost all of the team is the incapacitated, leaving them all before the mercy of Loki , and the monster he wields, however after one last hurrah The Avengers ( mainly Thor)manage to incapacitated the Hulk, however Loki manages to escape... To be continued

way better than the movies.

Something I think would have been simple for them to do was have the aliens(not going to try and spell their name) who attacked NY not just die when the portal closed and have that threat in the background as a reason for them them to stay together
