My son will be stoked about this.
I just want to know when the next season starts.
Great! I can never seem to be at home when it’s on and I’m too cheap for Tivo or a digital recorder :-)
Reruns are on throughout the week and its usually time on Sunday mornings.
Fantastic! I am definitely picking these up…and then forcing my wife to watch them! This show continues to be solid, and it is just a thrill to see Captain America, Thor, and Ant Man finally getting their animated due. The last time these guys got a decent cartoon was back in the 60’s!
Great time to be a cartoon/comic fan.
Between this and Young Justice… lots of quality writing/entertainment going on between these two series.
Very recommended watching, if you haven’t seen either of these.
