[[folder:New Avengers in general]]
* BadassCrew: They eventually learn to be this.
* {{The Chosen One}}s: they were all chosen by JARVIS according to a protocol created by Stark to assemble a new team of Avengers should the original die or disappear.
* FiveTokenBand: The Avengers consist of seven Caucasian Americans, a Nordic god, an African, and a robot. In contrast, the New Avengers consist of two Caucasian Americans, two African-Americans, a Canadian, and a Jewish-American.
* RagtagBunchOfMisfits: amazingly, they are this possibly even more than the original Avengers; if not for ComicBook/IronMan's protocole, there is probably no way a team consisting in a superpowered KidHero with DeadpanSnarker tendencies, a mutant AntiHero from the ComicBook/{{X-Men}}, a colonel with an armor borrowed from Stark, two mercenaries and a ComicBook/FantasticFour member would have even team up.
* {{Sixth Ranger}}s: It's implied that most of them get reserve membership after the job is done. Spider-Man certainly did.
* TeethClenchedTeamwork: At first.

[[folder: War Machine]]
!!Comicbook/WarMachine/Lt. Col. James "Rhodey" Rhodes

->''"I'm not interested in being a superhero. I just want to keep Tony safe. From himself, mostly."''

Tony Stark's best friend and military liaison. Rhodey tries to talk sense into Tony regarding his antics as Iron Man, and even offers to help him, but Rhodey would also prefer to use the War Machine armor Tony gave him only as a last resort.

->Voiced By: Bumper Robinson
->First appearance: "Iron Man is Born!" (Micro-Episode: "Iron Man is Born!")

* AllThereInTheManual: Rhodey's first scenes didn't contain any explicit confirmations about whether or not he had become War Machine. However, one of the comics from the limited series includes a flashback of him as War Machine, helping Iron Man fight Crimson Dynamo.
* BadassNormal: He has no superpowers and relies on his suit.
* BlackBestFriend: Rhodey is Tony's best friend.
* FlyingBrick: As with Iron Man, the suit grants him strength and flight, and he uses a somewhat more literal interpretation of the trope name to attack Kang.
* GatlingGood: Well, this is the War Machine armor after all.
* IJustWantToBeNormal: Rhodey is not interested in superhero work, happier as a colonel.
* MoreDakka: His suit has at least 3 more weapons compared to most of Stark's other armors.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Well he ''is'' a Colonel.
* RedOniBlueOni: Blue to Iron Man's red. Ironically enough, this is inverted with the colors of their repulsor energy.
* TheSmartGuy: He doesn't really fit any other role in the New Avengers.

[[folder: Wolverine]]
!!{{Wolverine}}/Logan/James Howlett

->''"You wanna take a bite out of someone? Try me."''

A Canadian mutant who served in World War II with Captain America. Now a member of the Comicbook/{{X-Men}}.

->Voiced By: Creator/SteveBlum
->First Appearance: "Meet Captain America" (Micro-Episode: "Meet Captain America")

* {{Badass}}: Wolverine pretty much can't die and has decades of fighting experience.
* ChekhovsGunman: His pre-Adamantium self made some short appearances in "Meet Captain America" and "The Fall of Asgard" (possibly as an illusion on the second case).
* DeadpanSnarker: When Spider-Man complains that Wolverine killed some dinosaurs that were attacking him, his only response is "you're welcome".
* FastballSpecial: Thing does this with him twice.
* {{Foil}}: To Spider-Man.
* HealingFactor: Part of his powers.
* TheLancer: In the New Avengers.
* RoleReprisal: Once again voiced by Creator/SteveBlum.
* ShadowDiscretionShot: When Wolvie saves Spidey from some velociraptors, it only shows the shadow of him slicing them apart, ''complete with spraying blood''. Amusingly enough, the claws are shown clean right after this.
* ThouShaltNotKill: He averts this right from the start, killing a few HYDRA mooks.
* WolverineClaws: One version of the trope namer.
* WolverinePublicity: The fact Wolverine didn't do an ''actual'' guest spot prior to "New Avengers" (the combined number of words he said during his cameos in season one totals six at most) might make his recruiting feel more shoehorned than that of the other five.

[[folder: The Thing]]
!!The Thing/Benjamin "Ben" Grimm

->''"It's clobberin' time!"''

A member of the Comicbook/FantasticFour, and best friend of their leader, Reed Richards. Ben has super strength, and skin made of rock. Joined the New Avengers in the midst of Kang's second invasion.

[[folder: Luke Cage]]
!![[LukeCageHeroForHire Luke Cage]]

->''"You mess with us and you're not going to jail. You're going to the hospital."''

A tough-skinned Hero For Hire who can't resist a good fight, as long as someone offers to pay him for catching the criminal.

->Voiced By: Christopher B. Duncan
-> First Appearance: "To Steal an Ant-Man"

-->''See Characters/AvengersEarthsMightiestHeroesOtherSuperheroes for tropes that apply to this character.''

[[folder: Iron Fist]]
!![[ComicBook/ImmortalIronFist Iron Fist]]/Daniel "Danny" Rand

[[folder: Spider-Man]]
!!Franchise/{{Spider-Man}}/Peter Parker

[[quoteright:113:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Spider-Man_EMH_9317.png]]

->''"Kang's not invincible. The Avengers have taken him down before, and you wanna know how? They did it as a team. They didn't trip all over each other. They worked together and they took him down. And that's what we're gonna do."''

A freelance photographer for ''The Daily Bugle'', who secretly also becomes a street-level New York superhero with spider-powers. Even though he has fought crime since before the Avengers first teamed up, most of the public has difficulty trusting him, partly due to slandering articles in ''The Daily Bugle''. After Spidey and the other New Avengers thwart Kang's second invasion, Iron Man recruits him as a reserve Avenger.

->Voiced By: Drake Bell [[note]]Originally, Josh Keaton, his voice actor in ''WesternAnimation/TheSpectacularSpiderMan'' was brought on, but for unknown reasons, his lines were redubbed by Bell, who voices him in ''WesternAnimation/{{Ultimate Spider-Man}}''.[[/note]]
->First appearance: "Along Came a Spider"

-->''See Characters/AvengersEarthsMightiestHeroesTheAvengers for tropes that apply to this character.''
