Finally caught up with The Avengers: EMH Season 2. Solid opening with lots of room for growth. I like that the story picks up right after the end of Season 1, with Cap's shield still broke, and Thor and Ant-Man semi-retired from the team (can't wait for Ms. Marvel and Black Widow to join, and maybe even the Scarlet Witch). Additionally, Avengers does an amazing job of including the entire Marvel universe in one story. From apperances by the Fantastic Four (who jockingly referrence their own explots as asides), to the muliple mentions of the X-Men and even Spiderman. The world of Avengers: EMH feels very lived in.

That being said, I dislike the new opening. While I was not a huge fan of the Season 1 opening song (which is still used), the action sequences in the OP were quite a lot of fun (and despite the cheesiness of the song, it was still worked with the OP action sequences quite well). So the new OP featuring a narrator is a bit of a let down.
