Thor or Captain America (7)

I believe the answer is:

avenger

(Other definitions for avenger that I've seen before include "One doing harm to get their own back" , ""Count of Monte Cristo," for example" , "One who gets even" , "One exacting retribution" , "One who exacts reparation for a wrong" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal.
