Who Were The First Ten Avengers?

[@thekinglydragon]

I think going over the first 10 fantastic four members would be an interesting idea since usually you only think of the original four

[@BladeStar-uq6xe]

I have an 8 member Fantastic Four in Action Figures. Original 4 plus Thundra, Sharon Ventura, Franklin and Valeria.

[@craigcarroll1790]

Don't forget Kal El of krypton

[@profx23]

FF has been all over the place with rosters. The original 4: Reed Sue Johnny Ben ---- Then the first group of individual replacements: Crystal Luke Cage Medusa She-Hulk ---- The visiting mascot: Lockjaw --- The adjuncts: Wyatt Wingfoot Frankie Raye Sharon Ventura Scott Lang ---- Then para team: Brute (Enemy infiltrated.) Thundra Tigra Impossible Man --- The H.E.R.B.I.E.s, I-IV, (Probably more by now.) ---- Speaking of robotics and such: QUASI-Modo Roberta --- The Family extensions: Franklin Valeria Alicia Lyja --- The leadership couple replacement and missing Reed era: Black Panther Storm Namor Namorita ---- The long-standing friends and allies with Baxter Building access: Willie Lumpkin Spider-man Black Widow Daredevil ---- Four, even ten, is understated.

Hulk was a defining figure for the first 5 issues of Avengers. Issue #1, they all get together to fight Hulk, fight Loki instead. Issue #2 Space Phantom impersonates different Avengers, Hulk quits. Issue #3, Hulk & Namor versus Avengers. Issue #4, Captain America is brought back, directly because of the fight in issue #3. Issue #5, Hulk accidentally helps the Avengers defeat the Lava Men. It really seemed to me that Stan initially intended Hulk to be a reluctant, abrasive ally of the team.

[@maxmiller5619]

Pym's constant identity crisis makes this a harder question than it ever should be. That guy just cannot decide what alter ego he wants to be. So, do you count Antman and Giantman as two separate members or do you count them as one member who's got different aliases? It's also fascinating that so many associate Cap as an original member and having always been the leader when, really, he's actually the 6th (7th if you count Giantman as seperate) member and exclude Wonder Man as not being a true member until his revival much later.

[@HaussmannComics-xd3gn]

I personally just count Pym as the Avenger. He has been on the team as Ant-Man, Giant-man, Goliath, Yellowjacket, Dr Pym, The Wasp........he's worn many hats But then if a new character takes over the mantle they would be considered a different Avenger.....like the three Thor's for example, Don Blake, Jake Olsen and Eric Masterson would be three different Avengers.....yes still Thor......actually.....I'll need to read up on that, Thor was a terrible Example

[@maxmiller5619]

@@HaussmannComics-xd3gn LOL! See what I mean? For what outwardly sounds like a simple question, it gets complicated relatively fast. Especially when you get in deep like we are and know that there are sometimes multiple identities to the same alias, something many more casual folks don't know - to them Antman is just Antman. To us, it's like, well is that Pym, is it Lang, etc.? It's something that tends to throw my friends off, those who appreciate comics and/or superheroes but aren't diehards. I remember I once tried to explain the whole Captain Marvel/Shazam - Marvel's vs. DC's thing and they just looked at me like I was crazy. LMFAO. An excellent example of situations like this would be Robin and how, when it was announced Robin would die, the general press at the time just went with a generic "Robin"...as in Dick Grayson, unknowing that this was actually Jason Todd and Grayson was very much alive and well, and misleading casual people to believe that they were killing of Grayson, leading to misplaced outrage.

I would of said Wonderman. If the Avengers made him a horary member after he died. If not Simon Willams then Hercules. Stan Lee really screwed up by not having the Sub-Mariner meet the Avengers. Before he threw Cap frozen in ice in the artic sea first. Had his memory come back of seeing Cap and fighting a long side him and Bucky in WWII. Then had them both join the Avengers. Then had them go on a search for the original human Torch, Toro and even for Bucky's remains.

Let's see, I was alive then. I started reading Comics in 1964. 1. Thor 2. Iron Man 3. Hulk 4. Ant Man/Giant Man (Giant Man in issue 2, but same guy) 5. Wasp 6. Captain America 7. Scarlet Witch 8. Quicksilver 9. Hawkeye 10. Hercules So Hercules was the 10th member after getting tricked by Ares and Enchantress. There is the possibility that Swordsman was 10th as he technically could count as he became a member much later. However, as we was actually a Villain at the time and joined to betray them that he might not count until he truly reformed years later. Ah, forgot about Wonder Man. Like Swordsman I wasn't thinking he counted. I never even heard of this Crescedo.

[@Gibbypastrami]

I was following the antman movie ever since I heard Edgar weight was directing. Really disappointing that Hank and Janet weren’t on the original team I was rewatching Phase 1, they made a couple offhand comments about the Avengers initiative being shut down, I think it was just between Iron Man 1/Hulk and the Avengers movie that they’re talking about, but it would be cool if they reveal that Hank and Janet were part of a team back in the day, maybe the Fantastic Four, Ant-Man, and a couple other classic heroes were around back in the day Would’ve been cool if they left a gap where Steve could’ve been a part of a team before he got iced An MCU reboot could lead to some awesome stuff The original MCU is like an alternate reality where a few key figures were erased from the timeline I mean, they currently have the perfect opportunity to reveal that Miles Teller the Maker created the MCU through time meddling in ways we don’t understand yet, coukd be something they play with post-Doomsday Have Pedro Pascal help defeat the Maker and start a new MCU with a bunch of the same actors but many people recast + characters and concepts there from the start, adamantium, mutants, Spider-Man, fantastic four, life action 616
