Earth's Mightiest Heroes fight one of the greatest battles in super-hero
history! It's hero against hero in the sensational summer hit of 1973:
the "Avengers/Defenders War." Cap vs. Namor! Thor vs. Hulk! It's the
original crossover clash, and there's never been another one like it.
But
first, there are even more trend-setting classics in store for you:
Mantis makes her debut; the Lion God brings the Avengers to their knees;
Vision and the Scarlet Witch's relationship blossoms, but not without
the intolerant objections of others; and the Swordsman joins the ranks
of the Avengers. And as an added bonus, we're including rare pinups,
profiles and an interview with the Avengers' own Jarvis -- all from the
pages of the '70s fan-mag F.O.O.M.!
