The Mighty Avengers are the gov't sanctioned team lead by Tony who are always trying to arrest the rouge, underground group lead by Luke Cage, the New Avengers

Strictly speaking, the Mighty Avengers are actually led by Carol (Ms. Marvel). It's just that, since they work for the government, they answer to SHIELD, which answers to Tony, so it often looks like the Mighty Avengers are led by Tony. But Carol has had some minor angst over him interfering with her leading her team, so I thought the hairsplitting was necessary. *g*

(Also, unless you meant that the New Avengers are all vaguely red colored, I believe that should be "rogue", not "rouge".)

Otherwise, awesome summary! :-D

Whoops, thanks! I kinda forget that Carol's actually team leader, even thought that was established like way back when. I blame it on my BLINDING!RAGE at current comics, hehe. ;)

Total laugh at the red colored, by the way! Doesn't everyone (kinda on both teams) have a costume that's red/yellow/gold/back, or some version of that? Someone (besides Danny and Peter) needs to bring some color into the mix! I demand the return of Luke's old costume.

Heh. Yeah, I think Tony forgets that she's team leader, too, sometimes. He's...just a bit of a control freak. :-D

You know, I never thought of it, but you're right! Geez, when did that happen? Apparently red, yellow, gold, and black are the designated cool colors and any superhero who wears something else is cheesy. Except Peter, who will never not be cool. *g*
