mega-events—the Avengers/Defenders War! Thor vs. Hulk! Silver Surfer vs.

And that’s just the tip of the iceberg!
This packed-to-the-gills collection also includes Attuma’s invasion of
the surface world; Hawkeye’s joining the ranks of the Defenders; the
all-time classic battle with the Squadron Sinister that brought
Nighthawk into the Defenders’ fold; a team-up with Professor X to stop

Black Knight! They’re classics that redefined super teams forever, one
and all, so come join the revolution with the Marvel Masterworks!
