* The rotating team shot of ComicBook/{{Hawkeye}}, [[ComicBook/TheMightyThor Thor]], the ComicBook/BlackWidow, Film/CaptainAmerica, Film/IronMan and ComicBook/TheIncredibleHulk in ''Film/TheAvengers''.

* The cover art for X-Men: First Class does this, with the X-Men on the front and Magneto's team on the back.

* [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=4&p=000509 This]] ''{{MS Paint Adventures}}'': ''Webcomic/ProblemSleuth'' panel where Ace Dick, Problem Sleuth and Pickle Inspector get together for the first time.

About [[OnceAnEpisode once every story arc, however,]] they pull it together for whatever it is they have to do (typically saving [[TrueCompanions one of their own]]). Good examples are four of them marching on Arlong Park for Nami, or six of them (including one [[CharlieBrownFromOuttaTown who was persona non grata, under an assumed identity]]) [[http://www.mangafox.com/manga/one_piece/v41/c390/17.html standing on a battlement]], squaring off with the [[TheMenInBlack Cipher Pol No. 9]] and declaring war against the whole world to save Nico Robin.

[[SeenItAMillionTimes You've seen this a thousand times.]] So the gang's all here! Hyped up for most of the arc this dream team makes an epic appearance! How? With a establishing shot with its name in bold letters of course! The Team establishing shot is a process when a newly assembled or created team appears in a a big flashy pose with them all together. It's common on covers but also appears on the back page or final shot when the preceeding installment has been about the formation of the team. Sometimes [[DramatisPersonae little bios or epithets for each of the members will accompany the images]].

** Another one later when [[spoiler:Loki opens his eyes and sees the entire team glaring at him, with the tip of Hawkeye's arrow in the center, pointed right at his face.]]
