History ComicBook / MarvelAdventures

* EvilLaugh: For a hero, Storm's surprisingly good at it. Though she was playing a witch who could control the weather, it could be her [[LargeHam needing to make it convincing]](which was part of Wolverine's plan, "just like we said!").

* BrokenAesop

* {{Soaperizing}}

* CelebrityBlog: Nova spends most of ''Super Heroes'' v2 #1 pondering if Magneto has a Twitter account.

* ArtStyleDissonance: This comic is much more light-hearted and comedic than 616 Marvel fare, but it's drawn the exact same way as 616 Marvel.

* CarFu: [=KaZar=] accidentally takes out Stegron by landing the Quinjet on top of him. It's ''Jet'' Fu technically, but the same principle applies.

* RealityEnsues: In one issue, the Silver Surfer, at the urging of a TV show host, starts using his Power Cosmic to do things like give people gold to help with their financial issues and generating crops in desert countries. Unfortunately, the sheer amount of gold in the economy turns it upside down (a gallon of milk costs ''ten thousand dollars''), city services have been shut down because everyone who was working in them became millionaires and quit, and the influx of crops also creates a population boom of locusts.

* CoolAndUnusualPunishment: IronMan being subjected to the CuteButCacophonic pit of space kitties as penalty for losing a round of Kree karaoke. Apparently, they're loud enough to even outdo the suit's sound filters, as he ends up mostly deaf for several pages.

* {{Adorkable}}: Spider-Man's mutant girlfriend, Chat. And for that matter, Spidey himself especially when Chat decided to reveal her crush to him by mentioning that she was with her boyfriend (knowing Pete was Spider-Man) before Spider-Man rescued her.

* AIIsACrapshoot: It took ''seconds'' for Ultron to go into CrushKillDestroy mode.

* AccidentalAthlete: In ''Marvel Adventures Spider-Man'' #34, Peter Parker is recruited as a shortshop for his high school baseball team after he's seen using his super-powers to deftly catch and return a wayward ball. Team pitcher Flash Thomson is enraged because he suspects Parker's skills are due to illegal drugs, while the Green Goblin wants to eliminate Parker so his son's rival team can win instead.

--> "Well, that's an all new 'Everything Goes Wrong' speed record!"
** Also, the creation of Vision. Huge lightning storm + experimental programs + Storm + combat practice robots = Lethal sentient robot.
* AllYourPowersCombined: As in other universes, the Super-Adaptoid has the ability to copy powers and personalities. Quicksilver uses this to defeat it, as having it copy ComicBook/CaptainAmerica gives it enough good guy mojo to reject its creator and run off to become a hero.

%%* BigEater: The Hulk and the Thing. Spider-man tried with a load of hot dogs, but not quite in their league

%%* BrokenAesop
* BoisterousBruiser: Amazingly enough, [[ComicBook/TheIncredibleHercules Hercules]] manages to be even ''more'' this than his 616 counterpart is.

%%* CarFu

* CuteBruiser: Though her first comic scene in "Lover's Leaper" had Thundra lash at Luke Cage with her chain, another scene a while "earlier in the story" ask him and Hawkeye, "Which one of you two is Luke Cage?" Looking happy to date Luke in the beginning.

* DatingServiceDisaster: After Hawkeye accidentally uploads ALL the personal data of the male Avengers, not just his, to a dating site owned by Batroc the Leaper, the villain gets the others to go on dates with several ladies. It catches up to Batroc and the other Avengers when the ladies get stood up to Batroc's multi-booking the guys for many dates at the same time. Once Luke tells the ladies what ''really happened'' they aren't pleased about it at all...and HilarityEnsues after the ladies yell at Batroc "Get Him!" and a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown is hinted at by Cap and the others.

* EngineeredPublicConfession: Captain America vs. Loki. "Did you just humiliate a deity in front of three million potential worshipers?!"
* EvilLaugh: For a hero, Storm's surprisingly good at it. Though she was playing a witch who could control the weather, it could be her [[LargeHam needing to make it convincing.]] (Which was part of Wolverine's plan, "just like we said!")

%%* GeniusLoci: Ego the Living Planet. [[CasanovaWannabe Who turns up in the Solar System to hit on the Earth.]]

* GodwinsLawOfTimeTravel: A Watcher manages to not get in trouble for acting instead of watching when he returns a dimension-hopping Johnny Storm home. His method of getting out of it is by pointing out that with all the dimension-screwing Johnny was causing, he missed out getting to watch several interesting timelines (including one where the ''Aztecs'' somehow won WWII) unfold.

%%* HatePlague: Hate-monger's hate ray.

%%* HeroInsurance

* JiveTurkey: The aforementioned Goom, who learned all his English from watching MTV.
--> '''Spider-Man:''' This is so messed up.

%%* LighterAndSofter: Than the 616 continuity.
* LogicBomb: Reed Richards vs. alien supercomputer. Reed 1, computer 0.

%%* PhlebotinumBomb
* ThePowerOfHate: Hate-monger ([[spoiler: aka Karl]]) believes that this is what allows evil organizations to function and coordinate effectively.

%%* SpannerInTheWorks
%%* SpeaksFluentAnimal: Sophia "Chat" Sanduval.

--> "The lesson is: trust no one."
--> "That's ''not'' the lesson."

%%* WhatAreYouInFor

* WouldntHurtAChild: At one point, the Avengers have a showdown with Loki's Masters of Evil, who have gathered at a middle school, which Loki levitates into the air. Cap is paralysed with horror at the thought of all the kids in the school endangered or killed, only for the Wrecker to [[LampshadeHanging lampshade]] this trope: "There weren't no kids in there! [[EvenEvilHasStandards Whaddya think we]] [[WouldHurtAChild are,]] monsters?"

[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/marvel_adventures_2142.jpg]]

* AgeLift: Inverted for ComicBook/EmmaFrost. She is around Franchise/SpiderMan's age, whereas she's usually older.

* GeniusLoci: Ego the Living Planet. [[CasanovaWannabe Who turns up in the Solar System to hit on the Earth.]]

April 2010 saw the cancellation of practically all the series. The survivors (''Franchise/SpiderMan'' and ''Super Heroes'') became renumbered, starting again from #1. 'Marvel Adventures' also dropped from the titles.

* AdmiringTheAbomination: Comicbook/DoctorStrange has one of these moments. ("Such ''magnificent'' power. It could destroy us at ''whim''.")

* TheCasanova: Both Tony and Storm. While Tony has his civilian [[GirlOfTheWeek ladies]] and Black Widow, Storm's hooked up (in the past) with T'challa and Hawkeye, and currently with Thor, as well as getting a LesYay scene with Giant-Girl.

* WouldntHurtAChild: At one point the Avengers have a showdown with Loki's Masters of Evil, who have gathered at a middle school, which Loki levitates into the air. Cap is paralysed with horror at the thought of all the kids in the school endangered or killed, only for the Wrecker to [[LampshadeHanging lampshade]] this trope: "There weren't no kids in there! [[EvenEvilHasStandards Whaddya think we]] [[WouldHurtAChild are,]] monsters?"

* AgeLift: ComicBook/EmmaFrost is around Franchise/SpiderMan's age, whereas she's usually older.

* BigEater: The Hulk and the Thing. Spider-man tried with a load of hot dogs, but not quite in their league

* BrokenAesop

* CarFu

* FiveManBand: The Marvel Adventures version of the Avengers. It changed often through the series depending on who was in action though.
** TheHero: Shared by Captain America and Storm. (Possibly Big Good Duumvirate?)
** TheLancer: Wolverine and Iron Man take this role. Invisible Woman in the Super Heroes version of the team.
** TheBigGuy: Hulk figuratively, Giant-Girl and (against Erik Jostens) Ant-Man literally. Later Luke Cage. Thor in the Super Heroes version.
** TheSmartGuy: Iron Man mostly, though later Ant-Man does his part.
** TheChick: Spider-Man, and Tygra later. Nova in the Super Heroes version.

* GoombaStomp[=/=]GiantFootOfStomping: The U-Foes found out the hard way that this is an effective tactic when Giant-Girl got dropped on them. As did the Absorbing Man, courtesy of the Hulk.

* GroinAttack: Cap, of all people, [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome does this to the Wrecker with his shield at one point.]]
* HatePlague: Hate-monger's hate ray.

* HeroInsurance

* LighterAndSofter: Than the 616 continuity.

* PhlebotinumBomb

* SpannerInTheWorks
* SpeaksFluentAnimal: Sophia "Chat" Sanduval.

* StrangeMindsThinkAlike

* WhatAreYouInFor

* {{Adorkable}}: Spider-Man's mutant girlfriend, Chat. And for that matter, Spidy himself especially when Chat decided to reveal her crush to him by mentioning that she was with her boyfriend (knowing Pete was Spider-Man) before Spider-Man rescued her.

* AIIsACrapshoot - It took ''seconds'' for Ultron to go into CrushKillDestroy mode.

* AllYourPowersCombined - As in other universes, the Super-Adaptoid has the ability to copy powers and personalities. Quicksilver uses this to defeat it, as having it copy ComicBook/CaptainAmerica gives it enough good guy mojo to reject its creator and run off to become a hero.

* AttackOfThe50FootWhatever - Giant-Girl, of course. Ant-Man and Erik Josten as well, but only for one issue.

* BitingTheHandHumor - So many. A fan favorite is Doc Samson's [[ComicBook/OneMoreDay "Needs a wife" assessment of Spider-Man]] when the Avengers go in for therapy.

* BoisterousBruiser - Amazingly enough, [[ComicBook/TheIncredibleHercules Hercules]] manages to be even ''more'' this than his 616 counterpart is.

* TheCasanova - Both Tony and Storm. While Tony has his civilian [[GirlOfTheWeek ladies]] and Black Widow, Storm's hooked up (in the past) with T'challa and Hawkeye, and currently with Thor, as well as getting a LesYay scene with Giant-Girl.

* ChessWithDeath - Except it's chess with Galactus. More on trope entry.
* TheChewToy - Unlike most cases where Wolverine is ''everywhere'', fandom didn't really mind him being a major member of the team, mostly because the writers ''loved'' playing him up for gags like Spidey's "Kick Me" sign, the aforementioned pummeling by Odin, the slingshot trick (Spidey again), etc.
* CoolAndUnusualPunishment - IronMan being subjected to the CuteButCacophonic pit of space kitties as penalty for losing a round of Kree karaoke. Apparently, they're loud enough to even outdo the suit's sound filters, as he ends up mostly deaf for several pages.

* DeadpanSnarker - Spider-Man especially, but everyone has at least one moment of getting to be this. Even Captain America.

* DrivesLikeCrazy - [=KaZar=] is a ''terrible'' driver, as Spidey will rant about when provoked. Did come in handy, though, when he managed to land a Quinjet on Stegron and his forces completely by accident.
* DrivingTest - Spidey's Spider-sense gives him an advantage... sort of.
* EngineeredPublicConfession - Captain America vs. Loki. "Did you just humiliate a deity in front of three million potential worshipers?!"
* EvilLaugh - For a hero, Storm's surprisingly good at it. Though she was playing a witch who could control the weather, it could be her [[LargeHam needing to make it convincing.]] (Which was part of Wolverine's plan, "just like we said!")

* FluffyTheTerrible - To an EldritchAbomination, "Bob" is creatively exotic.
* FunPersonified - The whole line, but fans especially loved Batroc's appearance. He's just enjoying fighting the Avengers guys ''so much'' that you have to grin along.
* GeniusLoci - Ego the Living Planet. [[CasanovaWannabe Who turns up in the Solar System to hit on the Earth.]]
* GodwinsLawOfTimeTravel - A Watcher manages to not get in trouble for acting instead of watching when he returns a dimension-hopping Johnny Storm home. His method of getting out of it is by pointing out that with all the dimension-screwing Johnny was causing, he missed out getting to watch several interesting timelines (including one where the ''Aztecs'' somehow won WWII) unfold.
* GoombaStomp[=/=]GiantFootOfStomping - The U-Foes found out the hard way that this is an effective tactic when Giant-Girl got dropped on them. As did the Absorbing Man, courtesy of the Hulk.
* GoshdangItToHeck - It's a LighterAndSofter genre written for all ages, what do you expect?
* GroinAttack - Cap, of all people, [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome does this to the Wrecker with his shield at one point.]]

* HauntedHeadquarters - Before finding out Vision was actually a case of AIIsACrapshoot, the Avengers thought a ghost had infiltrated their base to kill them.
* HeroesGoneFishing - The villains probably wouldn't end up getting beaten half the time if they weren't constantly interrupting perfectly normal activities, such as godly dating or a friendly game of basketball.

* IAlwaysWantedToSayThat - Due to an unstable time portal, Spider-Man, Ant-Man, Hulk, and Tigra meet Sgt. Nick Fury's Howling Commandos in ancient Egypt.

* IntimidatingRevenueService - The Avengers fear the taxman more than supervillains.

* JiveTurkey - The aforementioned Goom, who learned all his English from watching MTV.

* LargeHam - Doctor Strange does it intentionally, as inflated confidence and a cheery outlook actually help his powers. Later, he convinces Spidey to give it a go as well as part of a ruse to trick a blind reality-devouring monster, and Spidey's a natural.

* LighterAndSofter - Than the 616 continuity.
* LogicBomb - Reed Richards vs. alien supercomputer. Reed 1, computer 0.
* MagicPants - Gleefully lampshaded in Avengers. "I'd rather not, I just got a new suit. ...Yes, it's purple."
* {{MST}} - The historical film of Captain America. "So if it's cool, you said it, and if it's cheesy, the filmmakers added it in."

* NarrativeProfanityFilter - While watching a newsreel of Captain America's service in World War II, Cap mentions that a particularly cheesy line was added in by the filmmakers after the fact. When asked what he ''really'' said, Cap embarrassedly notes, "I can't say with ladies present."

* OhCrap - Many, but two are especially priceless: the panel where Spidey realizes Captain Stacy just suckered him into revealing his identity to him in Marvel Adventures: Spider-Man, and the reaction of an intergalactic conqueror when he discovers that he and his army are all roughly 1/100th the size of Earthlings in Marvel Adventures: Avengers.

* SpeaksFluentAnimal: Sophia "Chat" Sanduval

* StalkerWithACrush - Surprisingly enough, ''yes''. Erik "[[ComicBook/{{Thunderbolts}} Atlas]]" Josten's sole appearance in the ''Avengers'' title involved him making it look like Hank Pym had intentionally vanished so that he could get closer to Giant-Girl while Pym was missing.
** [[spoiler: Emma Frost]] turns out to be one of these for ''Peter Parker'', who's life has been turned upside down by his long-term girlfriend Chat suddenly believing that they've never dated and Gwen Stacy (here Peter's UnluckyChildhoodFriend) swearing up and down that they've been together for weeks. [[spoiler: Emma has been haphazardly wiping Chat's romantic feelings for Peter and building wild dating scenarios in Gwen's mind to support her gaslighting, all because she fell ''hard'' for Peter [[LoveAtFirstSight at first touch]], considering his mind and resolve to be "the most beautiful thing she had ever seen". It all comes crashing down when Chat's animal friends keep telling her that she actually ''is'' Peter's girlfriend and she quickly deduces that it's Emma's doing.]]

* [[UngratefulBastard Ungrateful Bastards]] - The Baston-Karians, boy howdy: "Why are you still here? You are finished saving our world, are you not?"
* UnsoundEffect - Everywhere, but especially when it comes to Hulk and Batroc. "GAMMABOOOOM!" and "[=LeThumpt=]!" indeed.

* WouldntHurtAChild - At one point the Avengers have a showdown with Loki's Masters of Evil, who have gathered at a middle school, which Loki levitates into the air. Cap is paralysed with horror at the thought of all the kids in the school endangered or killed, only for the Wrecker to [[LampshadeHanging lampshade]] this trope: "There weren't no kids in there! [[EvenEvilHasStandards Whaddya think we]] [[WouldHurtAChild are,]] monsters?"
* YouAndWhatArmy - Poor Jamie Madrox. He so badly wants to use this gag on somebody.
* YouMeddlingKids - Spider-Man uses this in an Avengers adventure after unmasking Baron Zemo.

* DidntThinkThisThrough: Iron Man uses his stealth armor to sneak into Latveria to rescue his employees that Dr. Doom was holding hostage. Not long after sneaking into Castle Doom, Tony is caught as Doom points out that he's trying to use an experimental invisibility suit to infiltrate the lair of the nemesis of Sue Storm.

First launched in 2003, ''Marvel Adventures'' is a line of LighterAndSofter comics featuring some of the company's top characters and set outside of the 616 canon that most Creator/MarvelComics characters inhabit. Each issue contains a story that's finished by the end of the last page (though setups for larger larger arcs sometimes occur), and does so in a lighthearted fashion where everything usually [[StatusQuoIsGod gets back to the way it's supposed to be]]. Likewise, its setting allows it to completely ignore world-changing events from the main comics, such as ''ComicBook/CivilWar''.

* GroinAttack - Cap, of all people, [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome does this to the Wrecker with his shield at one point.]]

-->'''Iron Man:''' Like we'd ever [[PlanetHulk shoot the Hulk into space.]]

* WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeart: In the origin story for Janet Van Dyne's transformation into Giant Girl, she was given a special harness outfitted with Pym Particles and the ability to talk to ants. Janet is ''very'' unimpressed until HYDRA comes knocking and she accidentally goes giant, quickly turning this trope into HeartIsAnAwesomePower.
