"My favorite era of the Avengers was the late 60’s and early 70’s when Roy Thomas was writing the book.  That fractious trio of Hank Pym, Janet Pym, and Clint Barton were the core of the team and they ran through a lot of teammates before Cap, Iron Man, and Thor returned to settle things down.  One of the characters Roy introduced was the Vision, one of my all-time favorite characters.  When Wanda and Vision declared their love for each other as the Kree-Skrull War was building up, it was such goofy, melodramatic fun!  So presented here are:  the Wasp, Giant-Man, Scarlet Witch, the Vision, and Hawkeye – the Mighty AVENGERS!"

"I love the Avengers more than any other super team, but for this challenge I wanted to stay away from the more 'classic' Avengers. I wanted to throw together the most random team I could come up with and try to still make them look like an Avengers team that could go out and kick butt. Therefore, here you have redesigns for Iron Fist, Moon Knight, Nova, Scarlet Witch, and Marvel Boy (Protector).

"Iron Fist - There are two main things I did here: First I went with a crimson and mustard color scheme that I think hints at the power inside of him, and second I referenced the dragon on his mask. Also I gave him a bare chest because that is just how Danny rolls.

"Moon Knight - I ditched the cape and hood. I gave him Stormtrooper-esque armor and a crescent shield referencing the moon. I added the four main phases of the moon to his outfit (waxing and waning on his shoulders, full on his chest and new on his forehead.

"Nova - I wanted to streamline and simplify this one. I got rid of the spikes and made the outfit look like something standardized for an intergalactic police force.

"Scarlet Witch - Scarlet and red tones matched with grays. Her head bandanna thingy plays up the 'witch' aspect.

"Marvel Boy - I hate the recent flood of black and white costumes that have hit Marvel recently and Noh-varr was one of the victims of this trend. I wanted to make a costume for him that would say 'Kree adventurer.' Complete with a jet pack and laser gun and classic Kree green and white colors."
