Would it be fair to call Dr...

Would it be fair to call Dr. Druid the "heart and soul" of the Avengers and the member that defines what it means to be an Avenger above all others?

Druid was shit, but you can't deny that he kept things interesting by being an asshole. Though this was pre-NuMarvel, so asshole superheroes weren't insanely frequent yet.

*clears throat*

this is a terrible thread and you should be ashamed of yourself

Captain Ameriburger fans are so pathetic. Just admit that Druid is king.

Dr Druid is based.

There's shityy new avengers that are worse. Silver claw and mary sue negro man.

Only when he's leading the team, because in that case he's brainwashing everyone to say that so it sorta becomes true.

No, and that's why burned to death in a garbage can.

>the member that defines what it means to be an Avenger above all others
Being a garbage Z-lister? Then yes, Dr. Druid is THE Avenger.

that literally is what defined avengers until they made it the justice league

Even from the start The Avengers comic was made up of the characters that were doing a shit job selling on their own. There's a reason Ant-Man is in there and Spidey's not.

To be fair, Lee one time said that he couldn't see Peter in the Avengers because he's too much of a loner, and that the FF attempt was for money.

Sounds like classic Stan retroactive memory to me

Peter was an asshole until college.

Except if you read Avengers #1, Pete says he doesn't work well in groups. In ASM #1, he leaves the Baxter Building when he's told they don't get paid.

You mean until Romita started writing the book

D-Man

didn't he go evil and die?

why do magic people wear a shitload of eyeliner?

Is this a Gilgamesh thread?

Who the fuck is this? He doesn't look Marvel or even Western, who designed him?

Bill Everett

Everett earned his spot in history but this design is seriously doo doo. The shield shape on the face, the straight lines on the wings and the explosion shape on the chest clash HORRIBLY. Pick a design theme and stick with it.

reduces glare from all those flashing lights

>Dr. Druid
That's not how you spell Hank Pym.
