‘Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes’ May Still Live!

Earths Mightiest Heroes

Bleeding Cool has uncovered an interesting bit of news: There was never an official press release announcing that ‘Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes’ had been cancelled. Since it had been rumored that Marvel TV would be cancelling the show and replacing it with another Avengers show, and Joe Quesada and Jeph Loeb have been talking about ‘Marvel’s Avengers Assemble’, most just assumed that when the website Marvel TV News broke the news of the cancellation via a “print only” press release, it was the truth. Many sites like Comic Book Movie, CBR, and Super Hero Hype (and us) ran the quote verbatim:

‘The Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes’ won’t be renewed for the 3rd Season. Marvel Animation will present their newly developed series “Marvel’s Avengers Assemble” in 2013.

However, it looks as if this quote was premature and completely fabricated by a man named Nabil Elmjati.

Ultimate Spider-ManWhile most of us aren’t the biggest fans of Disney XD’s ‘Ultimate Spider-Man’, I don’t think that we’d go to the lengths to show it like Mr. Elmjati did. According to the report, it seems that Nabil started tweeting Joe Quesada every Sunday since USM started airing that he and all the other fans wanted ‘Spectacular Spider-Man’ back. After good ol’ Joe tweeted back saying that if Nabil didn’t like it, then he shouldn’t watch it, the fan conceded… Seemingly.

Though he may have stopped tweeting Quesada, it appears that he has created the site Marvel TV News, which reports on all things Marvel animation, but mostly it talks about how much ‘Ultimate Spider-Man’ sucks. While he denies it, it’s registered to “Nabil Mjati” in Morocco. Most people who use an alias don’t make it that close to their name, Nabil. Smooth move, dude.

Also on Twitter, he directed his followers to Jeph Loeb’s Facebook page so that fans can bombard the page with negative comments about Drake Bell’s version of the friendly neighborhood web slinger. But here’s the thing: Jeph Loeb doesn’t have a Facebook page. It appears that Nabil may have created that as well, and recruited people to bombard the page with negativity. The social networking site has since taken down the page.

Avengers Assemble

I don’t think that I’ve ever heard of a fan go through such lengths to express his hatred for something. Also, I’m not really sure what he is trying to accomplish by doing all of this, but no matter what he does, it doesn’t look like we’ll ever be getting ‘Spectacular Spider-Man’ back. But, the good news here is that ‘Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes’ is safe for the time being. Yes, it’s very possible that it could be replaced by ‘Avengers Assemble’ next year, but we can all live in denial again and hope that Marvel TV will allow two Avengers shows to co-exist until Marvel makes an official announcement as to what’s going on. I expect we’ll learn the final fate of EMH at SDCC next month.

    Marvels on a nice roll but they need to stop pulling their popular animated series & constantly replacing them in some schizo attempt to cull new demographics. Bring back wolverine & the xmen & keep avengers . Tweek them if you have to & please give the web slinger some consistency

    Hope is so bittersweet

    I don’t know. It sounds like cancellation is true

  • Digimass

    Avengers EMH’s is going to get canceled but even if it doesnt. This Loep guys would ruin it because he doesnt like story arcs and thats what makes EMHs good.  SO season 3 would probably just be mindless self contain episodes.

    Marvel please replace this idiot.

    i love Earths Mightiest Heroes Avengers. I love the story line it should definetly continue. the thing i hate is that if its a good show why pull it. I really hope they don’t replace it with some crappy new avengers show doesn’t have any decent plot line or good characters.

    If they do cancel Avengers EMH’s then I am done with Marvel. I think it deserves a third season but something tells me it’s not going to happen. Cancelling good shows doesn’t make much sense to me. Why doesn’t Marvel learn from its mistakes instead of alienating their loyal fans?

      It’s already confirmed that EMH is canceled. A new show, titled ‘Avengers Assemble’, which is more in line with the movie universe, will be taking its place in the lineup.

        That report confirming the cancelation was false. It was reported by Marvel TV News, which made it up. Though it’s inevitable, it’s not official yet. In regards to ‘Avengers Assemble’, there’s still no official network home for that show yet.

          Thanks for the clarification. I hadn’t followed the news since the (false) cancelation was announced.

    I personally enjoy the Avengers earth’s mightiest heroes because of its relationship with the comic book avengers it sticks to the costumes, the personality traits, and the overall plot although the relationship with comic books is loose its better than the movie story line which is a very hollow husk of the true and classic comic book avengers i believe it would be outrageous that the new movie avengers to also have a show because then whats the point in having movies? if the show story line can progress so much faster than a movie production.

    The facts of it is that the whole “AVENGERS ASSEMBLE”  is going to end before one season because of a shows ability to override a movie so i say let the movies have their avengers and let the show have its original comic book cast.

    Thank you
