The Avengers battle the Defenders in comics' first great crossover
battle royale! It's hero against hero in the sensational summer hit of
1973: Cap vs. Namor! Thor vs. Hulk! It's the original, and there's never
been another one like it. All this, plus the origin of Mantis; an
all-hands-on-deck battle with the Zodiac; the Avengers vs. Thanos and
the Cosmic Cube; a Giant-Size adventure alongside Golden Age heroes Miss
America and the Whizzer; the wedding of Quicksilver and Crystal; the
return of Ultron; and an increasingly tense love triangle between the
Scarlet Witch, the Vision and Mantis! And as an added bonus feature,
rare Avengers pinups, profiles and more from the pages of the '70s
fanzine F.O.O.M.!
