Season two of “Marvel’s Avengers Assemble” takes the Earth’s Mightiest Heroes to allnewheights, as the threat of the cosmic warlord Thanos hangs over the team, threatening to destroy them.

“Marvel’s Hulk and the Agents of S.M.A.S.H.” season two continues to pack a punch with thrilling, super-sized missions led by larger-than-life Hulk and his incredible team, including She-Hulk, Red Hulk, A-Bomb and Skaar. The second season finds the Hulks smashing into one of the biggest, most epic stories ever as “Planet Hulk” changes everything for the Agents and sets the course for a looming cosmic catastrophe.
