How can she be the first avenger if the team didn't exist yet?

She is just that amazing. YAASSSS QUEEN SLAY

Neither was Cap. Thor has been heroing the longest, Captain Marvel was the one who inspired the Avengers, and Iron Man was the first one approached to form the Avengers, but somehow Captain America is the "first"?

She's not. Hank Pym was the first Avenger.

Captain America literally had a movie called Captain America: The First Avenger you stupid fuck.

>Fury took a shit written on her plane because it looked cool
>otherwise she is not called an avenger one time in the movie
>uh durr but the team isn't there yet
>Meanwhile the first Cap movie was set in the WW2 and literally called first avenger decades before the first Avengers movie

Weak bait, OP is dumb and haven't watched the movie.

No one ever fucking called her the first Avenger what the FUCK is wrong with all of you people

Yes, and I'm asking why. The Avengers didn't exist at the time, and he's not the first of them in any way.

He's a Superhero working for the goverment to protect the world.

Thor was a viking alien smashing giants because is fun in the other side of the universe.

that's just a movie tagline, you autistic fuck.

>haven't watched the movie
Good for him. That movie seems to turn people into retards, as usual with the MCU.

because the group was named after her, Fury created it with her mind and a member even if she didn't realize it.
Cap2 wasn't actually an Avenger until he was unfrozen and Fury wanted him in his boy band. "The First Avenger" isn't literal.

Laddersis? Sure she is. The people who used to cheer the MCU with her have opened their eyes.

I think they always meant "First Avenger" to mean that Cap was the first of them to become a superhero, while Thor was still a spoiled warrior prince, fighting only for the thrill of it, and for himself.

There actually isn't a "First Avenger" in the sense of first on the team, because the team evolves as an idea over the course of the Avengers movie. Fury approaches Tony first, but then tells him in IM2 that he only wants him on as a consultant. Cap is brought in on Fury's request, but isn't really told of Fury's dream of a superhero team, just that they need him to help recover the Tesseract. Romanoff is there in her capacity as a spy and employee, Barton is security on the Tesseract, Banner is brought in under the pretense they just want him for his scientist abilities. Thor just shows up because Loki's involved. After things go to shit, fury tells Cap with Tony there about his super-team idea. Presumably, it's the first time Cap's heard about this. What's important to not about the next part, is that several of the heroes go to New York semi-independently of each other, all to get revenge on Loki or save humanity. It's Tony who first says they really are all a team, that they're all called "The Avengers" and they're coming for him, to stall and threaten Loki. It's kind of a bluff really, he has no assurances they're all going to show up, he's relying on their previous shshows of heroism and/or grudges. You could say that makes Tony the first Avenger, since he's the first to claim he's on a team with that name, but he includes the other Avengers as well, right off the bat. The Avengers happened because they had to happen, because a threat emerged. There is no real first Avenger.

Just writer-wank, Anons. Like back in a ST:TNG ep where they laugh off laser attacks as a direct criticism of the technology of a time long ago, in a galaxy far, far away.

He was the first hero from earth. The Avengers are an earth team.

Oh boy I can't wait for Avengers 8 where it turns out a time-traveling hero actually started the Avengers

I don't think Captain Marvel was supposed to be an Avenger. I interpreted it more as "we need our own team in case aliens attack and she isn't there to save us". Of that team the first person he thought of was Captain America. He might also be the first person to officially join the team but that depends if he was unfrozen before or after the events of Iron Man. Also we don't know when exactly Black Widow and Hawkeye were chosen for the team.

Thor was heroin for Asgard.

She wasn't an Avenger. That was just her callsign. Cap is still officially the first.

How can Steve be the first avenger if the team didn't exist yet in Captain America 1?

Iron Man was the first choice Fury made for The Avengers, not Steve. Tony is the real first avenger.

Because Avengers are American, and Thor wasn't adventuring in or for America...unless maybe he did. I don't know, it's possible.

SHE'S SO CUTE. She won me over.

Carol Danvers has like a dozen different aliases (including Cheeseburger, apparently?), any of which they could have used for an Air Force call sign Easter egg. Making it 'Avenger' was a fucking ass-pull.

It's the title from his first movie. C'mon man!

>Thor is the oldest member, may or may not have done heroic things on earth before anyone else
>Captain America was the first anyone knew actually existed
>Captain Marvel was the first to inspire the idea of the Avengers
>Pym and Janet were the first supers to work for SHIELD
>Tony was the first recruit to the actual initiative

We can go several ways with this

user, she's a last second addition and no one knows her.
Even in comics, her best contribution to marvel was getting her powers stolen by Rogue(back when she wasn't a gross whore who fucked 90 year olds)and having the most iconic easily recognizable costume of basically every woman in marvel.
That's it.

She's not liked in comics and no one gave a fuck about her out of comics and they got a woman that is quite honestly knocking on the wall and has NO screen presence to play her in a horribly written trash fire movie that is depending on feminist and girl power stuff to sell.

I think they establish that digging up Cap was an early objective of the program, along with creating a new SSoldier Serum (in-turn causing the incident with Banner) BW & the Hawk-guy were SHIELD (HYDRA) agents grandfathered in to Fury's pet project.
