Silver Surfer vs. the Vision! Namor vs. Cap! It's a super hero battle royale orchestrated by the mystic menace Dormammu and the mischievous Loki. Concocted by Steve Englehart, the cross-title adventure is collected in full and has never looked better! 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 Magneto and the his Ultimate Mutant; and at long last, the return of the Black Knight! They're classics that redefined super teams forever, one and all, so come join the revolution with the Marvel Masterworks!

This is the Special Collector's Edition of this Masterworks volume with a variant/classic format dustjacket--featuring the original marble-look style, embossed foil picture frame, and retaining the absolute chronological numbering.
