    Default IGN's Top 50 Avengers

    Agree or disagree, this is their list:

    Do you agree, disagree or split on the number?

    This list is terrible. Quicksilver should not be as low as 44 and theres no way Moon Knight, Iron Fist, Black Widow and Eric O'Grady should be behind Red Hulk.

    Storm at 37? 0_o She did literally nothing in her brief run.

    Jarvis > Wasp. No way.

    There is clear bias towards the Dark Avengers too.

    Hank Pym outside of top 10 is stupid especially being behind Namor.

    The only thing they did right is the obvious top 3, though even as a major Thor fan I'm not sure he should be above Cap.

    Yeah. This list is a load of shit, and not even cleverly written.

    This list....so many things wrong....I think this is based on a fan poll, but I saw my buddy looking at this earlier and he told me about some of the rankings. My only emotion then, and now, can be describe like this...

    Pull List
    Wolverine and the X-men, Avengers vs. X-men, The Walking Dead, Batman

    While I am selfishly pleased that Carol is the top-ranking lady of the Avengers, I'm a little dismayed that none of the women broke the top 10. So many long-standing members of the team like Wanda, Jan or Carol deserve to be up there far more than the marketing draws that are Wolverine and Spider-Man.

    Also... Storm? Seriously?

    Admittedly, I also cringe at seeing Dark Avengers in these lists. The Dark Avengers, while they had a really fun book to read, were never "real" Avengers in my mind.

    Did Bendis write this as a joke I wonder????

    Clearly the author has no idea who the Avengers were or are.

    Brilliant List! Absolutely Brilliant!



    ...actually it's pretty terrible, even I think it's bad. Why is Spidey always so high on these Avengers lists? He's done absolutely NOTHING.

    I think thats pretty clear when Mr Fantastic appears on this list. I don't recall Mr Fantastic ever being part of the team. When the heck did that happen?

    Spiderman, Wolverine and Hulk are WAY too close to the top. Surprised to see Thor #1. Cap A seemed like the most obvious choice.

    How the heck does Storm rank so high when she's been an Avenger for 2 minutes? What has she done significantly that earned her a spot? Her most memorable act so far for me was ditching them for the X--men the second she found out the Phoenix was coming back

    IGN is terrible for games and looks like it's bad for comics too.
