The Avengers Face Test

Genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist, in his own words under oath. He builds a suit in a cave and an ego in public, and in the end the sacrifice that saves half the universe. "I am Iron Man."

A skinny Brooklyn kid who never learned how to run from a fight. Then he got a body that could finish them. He woke up 70 years late and still became the moral spine of the entire team.

A scientist with seven PhDs and one giant anger management problem. He spent years running from the big guy. The secret, it turns out, is that he's always angry.

The God of Thunder. Banished, humbled, rebuilt, and reinvented more times than any other Avenger. He loses the hammer and learns he was never the hammer. He was the thunder.

A spy with red in her ledger and a goal of wiping it out. Her only weapons are training and nerve. She'd pay any price for the family she found.

A man with a bow on a team of gods and monsters, and somehow never the weak link. A secret farm, a secret family, and arrows that never miss.

The God of Mischief and an adopted son, and Marvel's best-loved villain. "Burdened with glorious purpose." He betrays everyone at least twice, and gets redeemed about as often.

A S.H.I.E.L.D. agent who collects Captain America trading cards and fears no god. His death united the Avengers, and his fanboying united the audience.

Fury's right hand and S.H.I.E.L.D.'s most competent person. She keeps the helicarrier flying while gods wreck the inside. Skeptical of everything and ready for anything.

An astrophysicist who gets brainwashed and possessed and dragged into cosmic events between lectures. He once solved equations at Stonehenge with no pants on, which, given what he's been through, is a fair reaction.
