It's the 15th, so welcome to the next month of Cap-IM's Universe Medley fest!

You can create as many works as you like across as many different mediums as you like! This is a no-pressure, low commitment challenge to encourage you to try something new, stretch your creativity, and check out other versions of Steve and Tony.

For our full fest guidelines, including our annual schedule, please click here.

Coming up, Avengers Assemble Month!

Avengers Assemble made its spectacular debut in 2013 with a two part episode that featured Tony going on a mission to save Steve, only for Steve to end up rescuing Tony instead. And the show took its notes from that, continuing to deliver that Steve/Tony goodness we all crave.

Steve and Tony ran the Avengers team as joined at-the-hip co-leaders. They went on undercover missions, had trust falls, and fought off a host of villains all the while bickering like the married couple we know they are.

Drawing inspiration from the MCU (off the back of EMH, which was more comics-inspired), Avengers Assemble was an endless spread of fannish riches—there was the de-aging episode, the body swap episode, the alternate reality episode... We got a sassy Steve and a self-sacrificing Tony. There was even the break-up and make-up arc where Steve and Tony fought and then came together to defeat Ultron. And who can forget the hug when Steve reunited with Tony in Battleworld?

Over 5 seasons, the Avengers broke out of superhero jail, fought dinosaurs in the Savage Land, and defeated the Red Skull's cabal to the soundtrack of Steve and Tony talking each other up. A more lighthearted and tropey watch, this cartoon has a great team dynamic with different Avengers' personalities shining through and some fabulous adventures!

So bring on all those wonderful Avengers Assemble fanworks—and don't hesitate to watch or re-watch some classic SteveTony episodes 😉
