I liked it.
They ALL float down here. When you're down here with us, you'll float too!
@Starflier
So... is this meant to be in Marvel movie continuity? Because that certainly seemed like movie Iron Man, especially since the voice actor was doing his best Robert Downey Jr. impression 
I feel like it's how Wolverine got the leader treatment after it worked out that way with the movies. More people know Tony Stark as RDJ so they make the cartoon like his portrayal. It's not bad, I might check it out.

Menace Mech (FKA Burning Gundam) 50 Bots/FF Mastermind Protector
Celestial Striker 43 Peacebringer Triumph
Mind Slice 35 Mind/King Controller Triumph
Obsidian Assassin 30 Night Widow Protector
Somebody liked Cloverfield 
Also liked Iron Man's eye emote toward the end.

At least this version of the team is actually going to have the Big 3 Avengers (4, if you count the Hulk), unlike the ridiculous Fox Kids series with everybody in stupid-looking "battle armor" and Hawkeye trying to do his best Wolverine impersonation. *sigh*

That looked pretty good, caught the feel of the Iron Man movies well, I thought.
But, why was he fighting a green Brainiac? 
We built this city on Rock and Roll!
Now sure I liked the art style too much, but the writing dialog and acting were all good, so I will likely give it a watching when it comes out (if I can remember and find it).
Too many alts to list.
Micro-Episode #2 and another character profile trailer is out, I added the links to the first post!
Aww, wish we'd got to see home Hulk throwdown.
Micro-Episode #3 and another character profile trailer is out, I added the links to the first post!
Also 2 questions...
#1: Has Ant-Man always had the ability to shrink down and still be able to knock out a normal sized person with a punch?
#2: Has he always been able to control ants?
I thought he just took the name Ant-Man cause that's the size he shrunk down too not cause he also was the Ant King =P

Dunno about the first, but yes, he's always been able to control ants. I *think* he even rides a flying ant in the first Avenger's comic (correct me if I'm wrong).

Well I thought he still possessed the strength of a man at ant size so it's possible in a world of cartoon physics.

He's just as strong as he would be normal size when he is as small as an ant.
Not sure about the style, seems a little clunky. Although i dug the Hulk transformation. I give it a whirl.

You also forgot the frumpy, non-sexy version of Tigra too. *sigh*

A lot of people like to dump on Ant Man but I think he has a unique power set. Keeps things fresh. I'm glad to see that he will be part of the regular line. I know that we will get to see Giant Man aswell but I'm really hoping for Yellowjacket. Love his fights when he uses a combination of shrinking and growing to keep opponents off balance.
Way to many alts.

2. Yes
And actually he re-engineered the Wasp so that she actually grows stronger as she shrinks (don't ask me how that works). In the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe from the late 80's, it says and shows that she could bend a pretty sizable steel pipe double while shrunk.
She gets no credit, shrinking, flight, enhanced durability and strength while shrunk and bio-blasts that can level a small house. During the grim and gritty years, the Hand should have kidnapped her and made her into an assassin.

Hank Pym: Wife Beater
Micro-Episodes #4 and #5 came out over the weekend it looks like. Link is up on the first post!

Hank will never live that down. Ever since then, no one can picture Hank without a wife beater shirt, Dickies, and BK shoes, sitting on a couch with beer in hand screaming for Jan to make him a sammich...or else. Marvels late 70's and early 80's, in their quest to make their characters more real, so Hank beats his wife, and Jan divorces him then goes off to sleep with half the superheroes and supervillains in the verse. It was also in '79, that Tony became an acoholic. |

I've heard in interviews, some writers have named the Watchmen for the more adult change in writing styles, but Watchmen came after all this and Alan Moore was more likely influenced by the Marvel writers than the other way around.

ROFL on #5, about getting Thor getting a call from parents in the middle of chatting up a girl. That brings me back. That's happened to me so many times growing up...it's like they have a six sense about it.

Micro-ep #6 is up for viewing now as well...
Just letting it load right now.
EDIT: Iron Man vs. S.H.I.E.L.D. vs. Hydra
Not too bad. I'm not sure if it's the RDJ Stark or the late 80s/early 90s (i.e. Armor Wars) comics Stark that's being used here. I think this will prove to be an interesting series.
Thank you for the time...
