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, the Vision and the Scarlet Witch's growing romance, and a battle with Magneto alongside the X-Men!
