Caught in the crossfire, Earth has become the staging ground for a conflict of cosmic proportions. The merciless Kree and the shape-changing Skrulls have gone to war and humanity is on the front line. It's Roy Thomas and Neal Adams' classic Kree-Skrull War. Then, every Avenger from day one returns - to battle Ares and the Enchantress. And there's no time wasted upping the ante when the mutant-hunting Sentinels return from the heart of the sun. Next, enter: Steve Englehart. The Avengers' new writer doesn't miss a beat as he builds up to Marvel's first hero-vs.-hero epic - the Avengers-Defenders War. Also featuring Mantis' first appearance, Vision and the Scarlet Witch's growing romance and a battle with Magneto alongside the X-Men. Collecting AVENGERS (1963) #89-119, DAREDEVIL (1964) #99 and DEFENDERS (1972) #8-11. Rated T.
