Tony Stark was approached by Director Nick Fury, who offered to provide support in combating the invasion, with fellow heroes Dr. Hank Pym and Janet Van Dyne, as well as SHIELD operatives Clint Barton and Natasha Romanoff selected as canidates. As well, Loki's brother, Thor, the Norse God of Thunder, came back to Earth upon discovering Loki's attack, and offered his aid to them.

Based on a sentiment by SHIELD agent Phil Coulson, Tony coined the team name Avengers, which stuck.
