May I ask why this thread exists? I assumed it was because the old thread got locked, but it turns out that's not the case.

[COLOR="#000080"]They were locking 2018 and prior appreciation threads. Some just haven't been locked yet.[/COLOR]
If the X-Men have Magneto, and the FF has Doom, who would be the Avengers arch nemesis? Kang? Ultron? Masters of Evil? Someone else?
George Perez is an Avengers artist god.

Really, it's probably a three way tie between all three of them since they're the Avengers' biggest villains.
I'd even throw Loki in there because of the pivotal role he has on the team.

I would go with Ultron slightly followed by Kang. I give Ultron the nod as he is specifically a problem created by the Avengers.

[FONT=Franklin Gothic Medium][COLOR="#008080"]This is honestly a really interesting question. For me I don't really think The Avengers has a villain like that. Where when you think of the team you think about any particular villain to the point that they go hand in hand. But I guess if I had to choose one it would probably be Ultron as well.[/COLOR][/FONT]

Have always loved this pic and yes Perez is amazing. Not sure what order i would place them but he and John Buscema are without a doubt my favorite Avengers artists.

Great Question, I'd have to say Ultron just ahead of Kang and then Loki.

For me it’s: Buscema, Perez, Adams, Byrne, and Epting for my top 5.

That's pretty much my list and order as well, Buscema gets top billing for me as he was the artist of my favorite run and helped foster my love of all things Avengers.
I would put Kang marginally ahead of Ultron, because Kang is to the Avengers as Doom is to the Fantastic Four - a super-genius villain who won't be satisfied unless he beats this particular hero team. Kang can do anything and win any battle but none of it will matter to him unless he can humiliate the Avengers, because he respects them as the only foe worthy of his genius. Because Kang considers them to be Earth's mightiest heroes, we can almost believe it's true.
Ultron is great because of all the personal connections he has to individual members (so many of the members are part of his extended family), but he doesn't elevate the Avengers in that way; he makes them look bad because he wouldn't exist if not for one of them.

[COLOR="#000080"]The Avengers have multiple arch nemesis(es?)
Ultron
Kang
Thanos
Masters of Evil
I think they give equal weight to each one.
