Line 18:
* '''Gene "Leather Boy" Lorrene''': Revealed to be an actual founding member of the team who was kicked out early due in part to not actually having powers and partly because he was a [[Leather Man]] and BDSM enthusiast who [[I Thought It Meant|totally missed the point]] of Mr. Immortal's first call for "costumed adventurers". Angered at this, he eventually joined the team's [[Rogues Gallery]], along with Dr. Tannenbaum and Deathurge the squirrel.
* '''Doreen "[[Squirrel Girl]]" Green''': Mutant with squirrel like agility, the ability to [[Speaks Fluent Animal|talk to squirrels]], and a tail. Despite this laughable powerset, she's [[Lethal Joke Character|regarded by S.H.I.E.L.D. as the greatest superhero combatant alive]]. Gone up against, and [[Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?|defeated Dr. Doom, M.O.D.O.K., Thanos]] and [[Deadpool]] (twice).
* '''Monkey Joe''' and '''Tippy Toe''': Squirrel girl's [[Non
* '''Doug "Grasshopper" Taggert''': The original "Grasshopper" was a Roxxon security guard with a grasshopper themed [[Powered Armor]]. Killed within 5.8 seconds of joining the team with a thrown sai to the face. Others have taken up the mantle, but they didn't do much better: one accidentally jumped all the way to space, one killed by an angry [[Deadpool]], and another turned out to be a Skrull infiltrator.
* '''Wade [[Deadpool]] Willson''': Technically still a member of the team, he origionally joined out of boredum and to chase after Big Bertha. Caused more conflicts than he helped with. And yes, at one point Deadpool was technically an Avenger.
Line 34:
* [[And This Is For]] - Monkey Joe!
{{quote| '''(The Ghost Of) Monkey Joe says''': Whatever. Not like it's gonna bring me back or anything. Feh, I'm outta here.}}
* [[Animal
* [[Anyone Can Die]] - Though it's usually Grasshopper.
** And always Mr Immortal. Often more than once.
Line 52:
* [[Darker and Edgier]] - Both parodied and played straight in the miniseries.
* [[Deal With the Devil]] - Mr. Immortal's mother, granting him immortality.
* [[Did You Just Flip Off Cthulhu?]] - The team without Squirrel Girl.
* [[Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?]] - Squirrel Girl.
* [[Distaff Counterpart]] - Tippy Toe for Monkey Joe.
** Big Bertha has the same power as [[X Men]] enemy [[The Brute|The Blob]], the difference being that she can revert back to normal body build (if you consider a swimsuit model's body build "normal")
* [[Dude, Where's My Respect?]] - Mr. Immortal and the others actually once saved the universe from complete annihilation all on their own. Did they get any recognition for doing so? Nope. In fact, they were forced to drop the Avengers name because of it.
* [[Family
* [[Fastball Special|Fuzzball Special]]
* [[Fight Unscene]] - Squirrel vs. Thanos
Line 79:
* [[Multiple Choice Past]] - Whether Mr. Immortal's powers come from Deathurge, or Deathurge is merely helping him reach his destiny as ''Homo supreme''.
* [[Nigh Invulnerability]] - Mr. Immortal. Well, in the long run, anyway. In the short term...
* [[Non
* [[Not Blood Siblings]] - Mr. Immortal once had a romantic relationship with a stepsister. Now, if he could just hook up with some sort of undead, he'd have the near [[Squick]] trifecta.
* [[Overused Running Gag]] - Squirrel Girl defeating major villains.
Line 97:
* [[Stalker With a Crush]] - Squirrel Girl for [[New Warriors|New Warrior]] Speedball. She's not a fan of Penance.
* [[Super Zeroes]] - Though they've gotten better over time. They still don't get respected, though.
* [[Take That, Audience!]] - Monkey Joe and Tippy Toe like to mock comic book fans.
* [[Taking You With Me]] - A very hilarious zig-zag. When the villain Maelstrom created a device that would bring about the end of the universe, Mr. Immortal convinced him that if he destroyed everything, there would be nobody left to study what remained. This started to depress Maelstrom, which Mr. Immortal took advantage of. He convinced Maelstrom that the best course of action was suicide. Just to seal the deal, Mr. Immortal even agreed to a suicide pact and die with him. Mr. Immortal shot himself in the head to show he was serious, after which Maelstrom followed suit. Mr. Immortal woke up a few moments later to shut down the device.
* [[The Thing That Would Not Leave]] - Deadpool.
Line 107:
** Lampshaded by the Vision, who asked them if the name "Midwest Avengers" wouldn't make more sense. Mr. Immortal argued that no, the name should have something to do with ''coasts''.
* [[What Kind of Lame Power Is Heart Anyway|What Kind Of Lame Power Is Being A Door Anyway]] - Or being flat? Or dying a lot? Or being fat? Or <s>talking to squirrels</s>?
* [[Who Wants to Live Forever?]] - Mr. Immortal.
