Avengers #28

The skies turn into a battlefield on this George Pérez-covered issue of Avengers #28, where massive war-eagles carry armored riders through a chaos of lightning and aerial combat. Ms. Marvel charges forward with a blazing energy sphere in hand, while Iron Man struggles in the lower corner and additional Avengers clash in the distance — all under the ominous banner "To the Death!" and the story title "The Death-Song of Kulan Gath." Pérez's dynamic linework makes every feather and crackling bolt feel alive, setting an urgent, high-stakes tone for this 2000 Marvel adventure.
