With the success of the X-Men and Spider-Man franchises, it seems that all 2nd Marvel Comics superhero has a motion-picture show in preparation stages. However, Marvel's different superhero teams have a fine hurdle: they share their calumny beside another undemanding Hollywood subject: fondly-remembered TV shows. Let's relay them apart...
THE AVENGERS
On television: Quirky rotation from the sixties, in which the horrifically British John Steed (Patrick Macnee) and different offsiders, with Cathy Gale (Honore Blackman) and Emma Peel (Diana Rigg), battled assorted sci-fi goofballs. Best villains: the Cybernauts, a tuft of bloody robots.
In the comics: Superhero group, published since the sixties, most oft led by the in a self-aggrandizing way American Captain America. Every Marvel superhero hide away the X-Men seems to have been an Avenger at several clip. Best villain: Ultron, a homicidal robot.
Prospects: The risible baby book was spun off into a popular with enlivened TV series, but since the ghastly 1998 flick (based on the TV performance), the identify "Avengers" is belike box-office venom.
THE DEFENDERS
On television: Riveting 1960s room drama, featuring a father-son process troop.
In the comics: Riveting 1970s and 1980s superhero comic, featuring a mass of guys who would suspend out together, combat essentially intuitive bad guys.
Prospects: Some of the comic-book Defenders (including the Hulk and, approaching soon, the Sub-Mariner and the Silver Surfer) are but flick heroes. If they are successful, a team-up is the rational next stair.

THE INVADERS
On television: Maximum paranoia, '60s elegance. David Vincent (Roy Thinnes) had to run away from aliens who yearned-for to transport over and done with the world, disguised as humans, time hard to warn a skeptical Earth people.
In the comics: Marvel's maximal heroes of World War II - viz. Captain America, the Sub-Mariner and the inspired Human Torch. While they were all best-selling final in the 1940s, they one and only worked together in a regretful series, eldest published in the decade.
Prospects: How in the region of a crossover? Aliens occupy Earth and military action superheroes during World War II? Hey, it could work!
THE CHAMPIONS
On television: Silly (but fun) British superhero set of the decennary.
In the comics: Los Angeles-based superhero string of the decade. One of the preliminary teams to be led by a female (the Black Widow, a defected Russian spy), on with Ghost Rider, Iceman and others.
Prospects: Neither of them lasted long-lived. If a prospering TV array (like The Avengers) or mirthful publication (like Captain America) can munition at the movies, who'd poverty to motion picture one of these also-rans?
ALIAS
On television: The adventures of Sydney Bristow, high-school learner cum superspy. First shown in 2001; cancelled 2006.
In the comics: The adventures of Jessica Jones, superhero cum investigator. First published in 2000; she retired in 2005.
Prospects: Either would craft a keen major part for Jennifer Garner. Time to get started!
