Avengers Versus Thanos (Kind Of) In Avengers Assemble Season 2 Teaser

I’ll admit it: I was bummed when Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes was replaced with Avengers Assemble. The former was the best animated take on the Avengers that I’d ever seen, while the latter seemed like a cynical cash-in on the popularity of the Avengers movie.

I’ve come around on Avengers Assemble a bit since then, enough that I wasn’t upset that the Marvel Animation panel at Comic-Con International revealed that the show was coming back for a second season (along with Hulk and the Agents of S.M.A.S.H.) on Disney XD this fall.

In conjunction with SDCC, Marvel released a new teaser video showing the team in action against some pretty touch mechanical foes who apparently are under the direction of Thanos. As a general rule, any time the mad Titan is involved, I’m interested. The animated Avengers aren’t familiar with him yet, but it’s a safe bet they will be by the time Season 2 is over.
