Dave Rogers, "The Complete Avengers: The Full Story of Britain's Smash Crime-Fighting Team!", 1989, ISBN 0312031874, p. 276 It was unable to be a genuine part of the machine that has been the MCU. Add in the most popular recasting in the league, and the result is the forgotten child of the family. Still, it lays the groundwork for a core franchise member then, now, and moving forward. 27. Thor: The Dark World Catching lightning in a bottle is no small task. However, capitalizing on that electricity is arguably more difficult. Guardians of the Galaxy is the most unique and revolutionary MCU movie ever made at the time. And the sequel, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, is everything in the first film turned up to 11. Although Macnee was the only actor from the original series to reprise his role, archival footage of Diana Rigg allowed Emma Peel to make a cameo appearance in a second-season episode "K is for Kill: The Tiger Awakes", while Macnee's first co-star, Ian Hendry, made a guest appearance as a different character in the episode "To Catch a Rat". In hindsight, had everyone invested known how much a success the MCU would be, this movie would have been made in the early 2010s as a part of Phase One or Two. By all accounts, the film is up to par with other origin movies in the league. However, being the project to introduce such a powerful player so late leaves a bad taste in a super fan's mouth.Two Against the Underworld: The Collected Unauthorised Guide to The Avengers Series 1 by Alan Hayes, Richard McGinlay, Alys Hayes (London: Hidden Tiger, 2017) Marvel Studios put all of their chips in the basket of Robert Downey Jr., John Favreau, and Iron Man. If this movie didn't succeed, the MCU would have never existed. Not only did it succeed, but it was also directly responsible for the patented tone and style that allowed the MCU to achieve. ABC Weekend TV produced a single series of Police Surgeon, in which Ian Hendry played police surgeon Geoffrey Brent, from September through December 1960. [8] While Police Surgeon did not last long, viewers praised Hendry, and ABC Television cast him in its new series The Avengers, which replaced Police Surgeon in January 1961. He maintained a modest mews flat in London during the 1960s (first at 5 Westminster Mews, later at 3 Stable Mews) and drove a variety of elaborate, old-fashioned cars, including a Rolls-Royce and several different models of Bentley, one of which he calls Fido. In one episode also a Vauxhall 30/98 can be seen. The cars used in the series became almost as famous as the actors. [25] [26] From the 4th series on, Steed's signature cars were six vintage, green 1926–1928 Bentley racing or town cars, including Blower Bentleys and Bentley Speed Sixes (although, uniquely, in "The Thirteenth Hole" he drives a Vauxhall 30-98). In the final series, he drove two yellow Rolls-Royces – a 1923 Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost and a 1927 Rolls-Royce New Phantom. [27] [28] Peel drove Lotus Elan convertibles (a white 1964 and a powder blue 1966), [29] [30] [31] which, like her clothes, emphasised her independence and vitality. During the first Peel series (Series 4), each episode ended with a short, humorous scene of the duo leaving the scene of their most recent adventure in some unusual vehicle. Mother occasionally appeared in a silver Rolls-Royce. Tara King drove an AC 428 and a Lotus Europa. Lady Diana Forbes Blakeney drove an MGC Roadster.

Overcoming grand expectations is a guarantee for an elite-tier MCU movie. Which Homecoming is. 5. Captain America: The Winter Soldier This movie brought upon the narrative that MCU movies have turned into sporting events. This was the Super Bowl of comic book movies. This movie's reactions alone are some of the most awesome fandom content ever made. Quality for this 2008 film becomes questionable as movies get better and better. But this is a Hall of Fame movie that will forever be remembered as one of, if not the most influential comic book movie ever made. 9. Guardians of the Galaxy In June 2013, Big Finish Productions signed a license with StudioCanal to produce full-cast audio productions of 12 lost first season episodes. [52] The main cast includes Julian Wadham as Steed, Anthony Howell as Dr David Keel, and Lucy Briggs-Owen as Carol Wilson. The stories are adapted for audio by John Dorney. This movie launched the cosmic branch of the MCU into a whole new stratosphere while introducing a style that has influenced every film genre. The characters, music, visuals, actions, emotion, heart, and comedy of this movie hold up to any other film on this list. As James Gunn once said… "You're Welcome." 8. Thor: RagnarokWhen Rigg left the series in October 1967, the British network executives decided that the current series formula, despite resulting in popular success, could not be pursued further. Thus, they decided that a "return to realism" was appropriate for the sixth series (1968–69). Brian Clemens and Albert Fennell were replaced by John Bryce, producer of most of the Cathy Gale-era episodes. A 3-issue limited entitled Steed and Mrs. Peel appeared in 1990–1992 under the Acme Press/ Eclipse Comics imprint; it featured a three-part story, "The Golden Game" in issues #1–3, by Grant Morrison and a two-part story, in issues #2 & #3, "A Deadly Rainbow" by Anne Caulfield; both strips had art by Ian Gibson. Boom! Studios reprinted this series in six issues in early 2012, and later published a new ongoing series written by Mark Waid and Caleb Monroe which lasted 12 issues. Boom! subsequently announced a six-issue follow-up series, Steed and Mrs. Peel: We're Needed, which was launched in the summer of 2014. [44] Despite issue #1 showing "1 of 6", only 3 issues were produced ("2 of 3" and "3 of 3" showing on the other issues, with the cover for issue #3 being the one originally planned for issue #4 which was planned to be the start of another 3-issue story). Eight IPs in the MCU have received a sequel. Of those eight, five have received the third film, with another on the way. Of those five MCU trilogies, no franchise has received a bigger glow-up from two to three than Thor. Nightclub singer Venus Smith ( Julie Stevens) appeared in six episodes. She was a complete "amateur", meaning that she did not have any professional crime-fighting skills as did the two doctors. She was excited to be participating in a spy adventure alongside secret agent Steed (although some episodes—"The Removal Men", " The Decapod"—indicate she is not always enthusiastic). Nonetheless, she appears to be attracted to him, and their relationship is somewhat similar to that later portrayed between Steed and Tara King. Her episodes featured musical interludes showcasing her singing performances. The character of Venus underwent some revision during her run, adopting more youthful demeanour and dress.

This was the moment in the Marvel Cinematic Universe that fans and critics learned what Kevin Feige seemed to know for a long time. As a result, this thing is going to be bigger than anything anyone has ever seen.
