Five Man Band: Western Animation N-Z
|
Can you guess which is which?
The Five-Man Band is a group of characters whose members fall into archetypes which all complement one another. They are a very specific team with skills that contribute to the group in a unique way. Here are some places where the trope occurs in animation:
The Next Avengers
| The Hero | James (The Quiet One, actually.) |
| The Lancer | Hawkeye (Clashes with James just as much as the original Hawkeye did with Captain America.) |
| The Smart Guy | Azari (Unlike most other examples, Azari's a self-righteous know-it-all who isn't always right.) |
| The Big Guy | Torunn (She's Thor's daughter, after all... but her emotional volatility is a huge obstacle for her to overcome.) |
| The Chick | Pym (Despite being the group's techie and being able to grow to giant size, Pym's way too unfocused to function as either a smart guy or a big guy properly. He's also th one least suited to direct physical confrontation.) |
