Ooh, Valkyrie (Brunnhilde) should totally have been at least on my 'and many more!' Honorable mentions list! So many Defenders reunions have been 'Dr. Strange, Hulk, Silver Surfer and Namor' and I've been like, 'stopped before my favorite Defender again!'

Clint Barton, too. Tons of great characters in the Avengers below the Cap/Tony/Thor trinity, like Clint Barton, Hank Pym, Dane Whitman, Scott Lang, John Walker, Bucky Barnes, Walter Newell (who? Stingray!!), etc.
