Avengers is probably the mightiest superhero squad ever present in the earth. The extremely good-looking bunch of superheroes with extraordinary powers makes us all go crazy after them. We all have kind of pictured them as the epitome of power and strength. Fans go crazy after each and every one of them. Be it Captain America or Thor or Iron Man, they have all been ruling our hearts for years now.
It seems like it was only yesterday when Nick Fury built a team of powerful heroes who would save the world from all the problems and dangers. But now this exciting franchise is coming to its end. Ever since it has started there have been so many additions like Ant-Man, Black Panther, and Spiderman. Now there is news about Wolverine entering the team and it has left me and many others excited and waiting eagerly.
