Avengers: Ultimate Jerks! by Supernaut
(Tue 11/14/2006 10:59am)
I don't know about you, but I found both of the Avengers animated movies to be Ultimately dissapointing. Not only was the animation sub-par and the storytelling only slightly above the level of a G.I. Joe cartoon, but the whole team is comprised of a bun...
