“This Hostage Earth!”

In "This Hostage Earth!", Giant-Man answers a desperate call from his ants, leading the Avengers deep beneath the surface where the Mole Man has formed an uneasy alliance with the Red Ghost. Written by Stan Lee and brought to life by Don Heck’s dynamic art, with inks by Dick Ayers and colors by Tom Ziuko, this 2008 adventure blends classic sci-fi menace with the team’s signature teamwork. The cover by Arthur Adams captures the underground threat in bold, striking detail.
