*Avengers #501-503: Avengers Finale and posts made by editor Tom Brevoort imply that it is possible these appearances were actually mystical constructs created by the Scarlet Witch. However, until a definitive in-story statement is made, these appearances will remain. Thanks to Jeph and Dermie for their debate.
