It'll always be a tragedy that they had better Spider-Man and Avengers cartoons but ended them for adaptions that, while improving, still haven't reached the same highs as their predecessors. At least they have an excuse for Spider-Man.

In a way they are putting some energy in trying to copy and insert as many scenes and references to the Cinematic Universe into the show.

It took them like 40 episodes to actually add another member to the team in Ant-Man, and now that the new season has started it's revealed he has already left.

I like how the Guardians cartoon is progressing, it does have some elements kept from the movie and even brought Ronan back to life, but the last few episodes seem to be going in a different direction.

Of course there's a chance they might retcon all this once the live-action sequel comes out but for now I'm enjoying this more unique take.

An even bigger tragedy would be how the X-Men and the Fantastic Four are ignored nowadays.

The X-Men franchise is pretty huge as well but they're nowhere to be seen in cartoons. Not even Wolverine. The Inhumans just aren't as exciting as the X-Men.

The F4 have never really had much luck in any other media adaptations outside of comics.

Or the fact that, because of the movie rights, we can't get Scarlet Witch in the cartoons. I was really hoping to see her and Vision together in the same show, but that's not happening.

At least Wolverine and the X-Men and Fantastic Four: World's Greatest Heroes were solid adaptions, if cut short. Who knows what the quality would be like if they actually were making X-Men and FF cartoons right now.

I'm kinda worried/interested to see how far the cartoons will go in pushing the Inhumans. Obviously they're making quite a few appearances and will be part of a big storyline, but weill Marvel Animation give them their own cartoon? Before the movie is even a success?

Even with all their history, and how cool they can be, I don't think the Inhumans can support a cartoon or at least one with the longevity and dynamic characters that the X-Men have. And I say this as someone who likes the Royal Family.

Same with Ms. Marvel, and I love that character.

They made like 52 episodes of Agents of SMASH even though there wasn't much there after they dumbed down and simplified everything from the Pak/Loeb era.

I'd like to see Scarlet Witch animated again. I can understand why they wouldn't want to add Quicksilver on the Avengers show but Wanda would have been nice to see.

They don't even have to mention her father, like in the movie. I think she could be a fine addition to the show and finally another girl on the team.

Pretty sad that the only time Wanda and Vision were together in the same cartoon was on Avengers United They Stand.

I just don't see the Inhumans having their own show. I think they work better as guest-stars or need other heroes and characters to interact with.

An alternative would be having an established Marvel character guest-star in each episode, but that will probably get tedious fast enough.

I thought Hulk & Agents of SMASH used a lot of elements from the Fantastic Four comics, though the team dynamics weren't as fun.
