Marvel Is Resurrecting The Most Powerful Avengers Roster Of All Time To Save The Multiverse

Published Aug 26, 2026, 5:29 PM EDT Nicolas Ayala is a Senior Writer for the Comics team at ScreenRant, with over five years of experience writing about Superhero media, action movies, and TV shows. The Marvel Universe's last hope may end up being a rare team of Avengers who rarely show up to do what Earth's Mightiest Heroes can't. More often than not, the Avengers defend their status as the most powerful superhero team on Earth. While the Fantastic Four benefit from Reed Richards' unmatched intellect and the X-Men from their extensive and permanently rotating roster of mutant heroes, the Avengers hold a global mandate backed by unparalleled tactical flexibility and limitless resources. At any given time, the Avengers have access to technological, magical, interdimensional, and diplomatic might that allows them to prevent world-ending catastrophes on a regular basis. Throughout the vast expanse of the comic book multiverse, several specific iterations of the Avengers have reached god-like heights. Jonathan Hickman’s expanded lineup from Avengers (Vol. 5) integrates characters like Hyperion, Star Brand, Ex Nihilo, and the living embodiment of the Uni-Power, Captain Universe. The alternate-reality squad from Heroes Reborn presents a reimagined roster forged within a pocket dimension, featuring amplified abilities and restructured origins for virtually every Avenger ever recruited. Other iterations include Rick Jones' timeline-policing Avengers Forever squad and the terrifying Phoenix Avengers from Enter the Phoenix. The most powerful iteration of the Avengers may have actually preceded every version of Thor, Iron Man, and Captain America's teams by a long time, to say the least. The Avengers 1,000,000 BC Return To Fight Godzilla Godzilla Conquers the Multiverse #2; Written By Gerry Duggan; Art By Javier Garrón & David Curiel After having everything they supposedly needed to defeat Godzilla and Knull once and for all, the Avengers of Doom fall one by one to Godzilla's rage. The Avengers of Doom lose Ghost Rider's ability to resurrect their members, then they witness Doctor Doom die at the hands of Godzilla, and then they lose Kang the Conqueror's ability to rewind time and restart the match. Only Miles Morales and his alien pet friend survive after Miles picks up Kang's sliced arm, which transports him back to the prime of the Avengers 1,000,000 BC instead of the beginning of the battle. Curiously, Miles finds the whole Avengers 1,000,000 BC team meditating. Even more surprisingly, Odin welcomes Miles acknowledging both "the great kaiju war" and the fact that Spider-Man just "traveled back a million years in time." Miles' trip to prehistory may have been an accident, but it may have earned humanity the victory over Knull and Godzilla. Prime Odin is one of the most powerful characters in Marvel lore, and he's accompanied by powerhouses like Starbrand, Ghost Rider, and Firehair a.k.a. Lady Phoenix, all of them shaped by the toughest era of Earth's existence. The Avengers 1,000,000 BC Could Be The Marvel Multiverse's Last Line Of Defense Odin's Prehistoric Avengers Are Some Of The Final Few Heroes Standing Against Godzilla The Avengers 1,000,000 BC have the unique experience of neutralizing apocalyptic threats at the dawn of time. In core Marvel lore, Odin's Stone Age roster successfully defeats and buries the infected Celestial Zgreb the Aspirant, repels a young Thanos, seal away the cataclysmic Mother Storm, and frustrates Mephisto eons before the arrival of the modern superhero age. The prehistoric Avengers' reliance on primordial energies provides them with a huge advantage, as their baseline abilities are tied directly to the mystical and cosmic roots of the Earth itself. Firehair's mastery over the cosmic Phoenix Force has the exact planetary-scale heat and psionic output needed to permanently disrupt Knull's hive mind and severe his parasitic control over the King of the Monsters. Odin's prime Asgardian lightning strikes and Starbrand's matter manipulation can deliver the concussive force to withstand and redirect Godzilla’s mutated atomic breath, and the Spirit of Vengeance, the Iron Fist, and Bast's first human champion could deliver the final blow. If they manage to defeat Godzilla and Knull, the Avengers 1,000,000 BC could become the ultimate last-resort hero in Marvel lore, accessible only through time travel. Do you think the Avengers 1,000,000 BC can defeat Godzilla and Knull?
