  • Episode 1 kicks off with the young superhumans Makoto and Bruno training by chasing after what appears to be a simple, harmless rabbit-like robot. The robot turns out to be not-so-harmless however when it starts firing at them with its built-in weapons.
    Makoto: Missiles, seriously?!
    • Makoto's dream of himself and Bruno receiving accolades for defeating the "villainous" Avengers.
    • When Tony Stark is confronted by several HYDRA goons in a sushi restaurant. He's neither impressed nor intimidated, even when their leader reveals his weaponized mechanical arm.

  • In episode 2, Iron Man is unimpressed with Red Skulls' idea for the name of his new nanotech upgrade.
    Red Skull: (after his nanotech saves him from some missiles) Perhaps I'll call this my "Iron Skull Suit". Impressive, isn't it?
    Iron Man: Yeah, that's not gonna work, I kinda branded the whole "Iron" in the name thing.
    • Iron Man and Wasp's reaction when Makoto arrives to assist them in their battle with Red Skull.
    Wasp: So that's the kid huh?
    Iron Man: Yep, our teenaged genetically modified bundle of joy.
    • While Red Skull has captured Captain America, Thor and Hulk. Wasp hits him with one of her energy blasts. Amazingly, her attack seems to work and Skulls nanomachines are rendered powerless. Turns out Iron Man was actually responsible, having shut down Hydra's computers just in time.
  • Near the beginning of episode 4, Makoto is tested with a difficult math problem. He soon gives up in frustration, squashing the computer he was using with his foot. Though he almost instantly regrets it.
    • After another argument with Tony, Makoto decides that he will sell his services as a Superhero. In short, he wants to be a Hero for Hire instead.

    • Makoto's reaction to the woman who hired them for the Hero Show being Captain Marvel is a stupefied 'wha'.

    Iron Fist: We begin training tomorrow.
    Makoto: NOOOOO!
  • Episode 7, Deadpool manages to sneak into Avengers Tower and as one would except. He causes nothing but trouble for Makoto, Adi and Chloé.
    • Deadpool distracts the Avengers by sending them on a wild goose chase. Providing them with a fake tip about some weapons being sold on the black market in the middle of the desert. The team learns the truth when they only find a Deadpool themed jack-in-the-box buried in the sand.

    • Makoto lampshades Deadpool's habit of addressing the audience.
    Makoto: Who does he keep talking to? What a weirdo.
    • Deadpool's payment for his latest job isn't just money. It's the chance to star in his own Japanese anime...

    • Tony's justification for not helping with the preparation for the party.
    Tony: The oven that baked the cake is made by Stark Industries.
  • Near the beginning of episode 9, three men break into Clint Barton's apartment and restrain him. Clint, is surprisingly casual about the whole thing.
    Clint: If you're gonna rob someone, you might want to pick a nicer apartment.
    • Once Clint hears the news about the Avengers having apparently been killed, he easily subdues the criminals and ties them up.
    • Becomes a Brick Joke by the end of the episode when he returns to his apartment. Only to find the men still tied up and sitting in his living room.

  • Episode 10 starts off with Tony calling T'Challa. Then being genuinely surprised by the Black Panther's prompt response.
    Tony: (Black Panther's image suddenly appears on his screen) Whoa, I expected to go to voicemail.
    • After having snuck into the meeting between Tony and T'Challa by posing as a Wakanda guard. Chloé accidentally has a moment of Shapeshifting Failure, why? Because she was freaking out when she saw a bug coming towards her.
  • Episode 12, as Tony's armor is being taken from him. He's told he'll get the armor back only during a crisis, with council approval.
    Tony: Like some glorified costume rental service?
    • Spider-Man and the Green Goblin's bantering back and forth throughout the episode.
    Spider-Man: (uses his webs to catch a ride on the Goblin's glider) Whoa! This is a way more efficient way of getting around town. Hey, if this whole Supervillain thing doesn't work out, maybe you could consider getting into the ride sharing business.
    Green Goblin: Not interested! The clientele seems to be rather clingy.
  • Episode 13, Stan Lee makes a cameo as the rather unfortunate hotdog vendor that the Green Goblin decides to attack. Fortunately, Spidey manages to rescue the man.
    Spider-Man: Hey buddy, don't I know you?

    Tony: Yeah... I cancelled the show.
    Deadpool: Producers!
    • At the end of the episode, when Deadpool grabs the crystal containing Makoto's drained powers, and he inexplicably transforms into Zenpool, of all things. Everyone is left completely baffled by the turn in events.
  • Episode 19, the introduction of Loki to the Future Avengers. Which involves demonstrating the power of the magical shackles meant to keep the God of Mischief in line. By causing him to fall to the ground like a sack of potatoes whenever Thor wishes.
    Loki: (awkwardly as he's still lying on the ground) Uh, excuse me. Brother, would you please release me now?
    Iron Man: Whhhy? You look so comfy down there?
    • This becomes a bit of a Running Gag for the rest of the episode.
    • Loki pulls a prank on the Future Avengers, getting some amusement out of deceiving them with his shapeshifting magic. He's far less amused, when he's suddenly confronted by "Thor" for his disrespect.
    "Thor": Hahaha! So, you don't like a taste of your own medicine, do you?
    Loki: What? What's that mean? What are you saying brother?
    Chloé: ("Thor" transformers back into Chloé, who sticks her tongue out at Loki) I assure you this is me, and you have nothing to worry about.
    • Loki ends up furious over Chloé's prank, stewing over it even hours later. He probably didn't like being upstaged on his signature move.

  • Episode 22, according to Makoto. Bruno once thought that Australia and Austria, were in fact the same country.

    • Makoto's annoyed and heartbroken reaction when Dr. Strange reveals Tony refers to him as, the bull-headed one. A bit of the "pot calling the kettle black" there Tony.
    • Bruno of all people even gives Makoto a sympathetic pat on the shoulder.
    • After Makoto is chosen to go into the past to rescue the Avengers, owing to his "pure heart". Hawkeye asks Dr. Strange what makes his own heart "impure". The Sorcerer Supreme then reveals he's got a sense of humor after all.
    Doctor Strange: Hawkeye, I'd advise you learn how to take a joke from time to time.
    • Makoto's first encounter with the sorceress Morgan's monsters, which mostly involves lots of screaming and running for his life rather comically.
    • Makoto, upon pulling the Ebony Blade from its pedestal. Acts like any child would and starts swinging it around like a toy sword. With Tony at one point even calling him, "Little Lord Fauntleroy".
  • Episode 26, when Kang's computerized belt short circuits. Thanks to Tony cutting off his access to his thrown, Falcon quips:
    Falcon: Bad time for a malfunction, but hey. At least it still holds up your pants.
    • Tony's deadpan reaction when he realizes Kang's teleportation device managed to get him to safety.
    Tony: (suddenly realizes he's back in the Quinjet) ...It worked.
    • Poor Makoto tries to give Tony a hug, only to discover the Iron Man armor is painfully hot to the touch. Then everybody laughs at Makoto, even Loki.
    • After Loki has (predictably) escaped, Thor goes into full panic mode. Stating that he is responsible for keeping him safe, as well as keeping everyone else safe from him.
    Wasp: (deadpan) You're your brother's keeper, huh?
