No. This is not a rant about how suckish my life is (actually, it isn't right now. I'm having a blast and I'm excited for third year). This is a rant about how people just go: "OH! That's JUST Hawkeye and Black Widow." It's about people saying: "They're not real superheros. In fact, they ruin the name of the Avengers." I hate how people undermine the two just because they don't have a supersuit like Iron Man, or that they don't have super strength like Thor or Captain America.
I, in my own opinion, admire both Hawkeye and Black Widow--- because they weren't born with greatness and they didn't have greatness thrust upon them. They earned it. Everything special about them came from experience and rigorous training. Yes, they might not be as kickass as Captain America or Thor or Iron Man or the Hulk, they're not to be underrated. Didn't Shakespeare once say: Some are born great, some achieve greatness and some have greatness thrust upon 'em? Does achieving greatness less than being born or being given greatness? No. It actually gives you all the more reason to be proud of yourself.
Thor was born great. He was a demigod; the son of Odin. He was to be the king of Asgard. The other three (Iron Man, Captain America and the Hulk), were given the opportunity to attain greatness. Black Widow and Hawkeye needed to work towards greatness. They're all equals. They're all part of the Avengers. Nothing's ever going to change that.
