just saw the first episode it was pretty good, at first I hated the voice acting especially stark but it grows on you. is this based on the ultimate line of comics? and should I read those before watching the rest?

No, the base is the 616 universe. Hawkeye has purple uniform (for that matter Black Widow is in 616 costume as well, so is Thor), Hulk is more in line with earlier 616, the Pather story is a condensation of "The Pathers Rage" from the early 70s.

Some details were pulled from the movie such as Jarvis being the computer and not the buttler (he is an actual guy in both Ultimate and 616). Black night fury I am guessing was pulled from the movie as well, but he could have been inspired by the ultimate line. Except he has dark hair with lighter temples like original 616 Fury.

There is an Ultimate Avengers cartoon out there that is ultimate based however.

The first actual "arc" (after all the one shot character intros) is based off of the first 6 issues of New Avengers.
And, no, I don't believe they do the comics justice.

Its definitely geared for a young audience, which I am guessing new avengers isn't done so much.

thanks for the reply, I was confused by fury looking like a weird cross between movie fury and 616 fury, and by graviton who I know of as a mad scientists who got turned into a ball of compressed matter through his own power then caught (somehow the superheroes strength dispels a massive shock-wave) and hurled into the harbor miraculously not causing a tidal wave.

It is also strange in how they pick and choose story lines. Its a weird mixture of early silver age stuff and more modern stuff all kind of jammed together.

picking and choosing story-lines makes sense when you've got a rich source material, it means you can pick whatever appeals to you the most. it can be unpleasant if you've read the source material first and the adaptation comes out sounding like a corruption. avengers: earths mightiest heroes is basically fanfiction with a difference: it is designed not only to enumerate the writers fantasies and practice writing skills but to make money.

Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes not renewed for a third season and a planet cries out in anguish only to suddenly silenced. or not so silenced as they're making a petition:

Figures. They need to make room for Survivor season 84 and Biggest Looser season 33. or maybe CSI: Flagstaff.
