The Avengers: United They Stand (also known simply as The Avengers) is
an animated series based on the Marvel Comics superhero team Avengers.
It consists of 13 episodes, which originally premiered on October 30,
1999, and was produced by Avi Arad. It was canceled on February 26,
2000.The series features two founding members of the team, Ant-Man and
the Wasp, and introduces Wonder Man, Tigra, Hawkeye, Falcon, Vision
and Scarlet Witch.The series features a team broadly based on the
roster for the 1984 Avengers spin-off series The West Coast Avengers,
composed of the Wasp, Wonder Man, Tigra, Hawkeye, and Scarlet Witch
(Hawkeye and Scarlet Witch were also both in the Iron Man animated
series as members of Force Works), led by Ant-Man/Giant-Man, with the
Falcon and the Vision joining in the opening two-parter. For
undetermined reasons (perhaps due to their rights being tied up in
planned movie projects), the Avengers' "Big Three" were not regular
fixtures in the series â€" Captain America and Iron Man made only
guest appearances in one episode each, while Thor did not appear
outside of the opening titles. Captain America appears in one episode,
"Command Decision". The story involves the Masters of Evil and a
flashback to Captain America defeating Baron Zemo. Iron Man, meanwhile
in the episode "Shooting Stars", helps the Avengers thwart the
Zodiac's plan to send a radioactive satellite crashing to Earth.The
series features many of the Avengers' major comic book foes, including
Ultron, Kang the Conqueror, Egghead, the Masters of Evil (consisting
of Baron Helmut Zemo, Tiger Shark, Absorbing Man, Moonstone,
Whirlwind, Boomerang, Cardinal, and Dragonfly), the Grim Reaper (this
version wore full body armor and a helmet featuring a skull-like paint
job; his ties to Wonder Man remained intact) and the Zodiac, as well
as associated characters such as the Swordsman, the Circus of Crime,
Namor, Attuma, Agatha Harkness, and the Salem's Seven.
