It collects issues #167-188 and Annual #7 of the main series, plus material from Marvel Two-in-One #53 and other tie-ins, as the team faces the return of the villainous Immortus and the machinations of the evil organization known as the Zodiac. Key storylines include the wedding of the Vision and the Scarlet Witch, the debut of the second Yellowjacket, and the first appearance of the Taskmaster, with art and writing by legends like Jim Shooter, George Pérez, and John Byrne.
In "Wings and Arrows!", Avengers legends David Michelinie and George Pérez deliver a pulse-pounding mission as Yellowjacket and Ant-Man slip into a high-security mental asylum to rescue the Wasp—only to be captured in the process. With the rest of the team waiting on the outside, tension mounts as the stakes rise in this classic tale of courage and stealth, rendered in dynamic art by Pérez and Terry Austin’s iconic cover.
In "Assault on a Mind Cage!", Yellowjacket and Ant-Man launch a daring infiltration of a high-security mental asylum to rescue the Wasp, with the rest of the Avengers holding position outside. As the duo moves through the facility’s twisted corridors, their mission takes a sudden turn when they’re captured—leaving the team’s next move uncertain.
In "Prelude of the War-Devil!", the Avengers find themselves trapped in the Mansion’s elevator, leading to unexpected moments—Captain America proposes Jocasta as a full-time member, Wonder Man and The Beast hit the town for a night out, and Ms. Marvel shares a personal revelation. Meanwhile, Dr. Cowan, having repaired Red Ronin at Stark International, has taken the robot for his own, setting a dangerous course just beneath the surface of the team’s quiet chaos.
In "Better Red than Ronin!", Red Ronin storms into New York City, triggering a high-stakes response from both the Avengers and S.H.I.E.L.D., led by Nick Fury aboard the relic Behemoth helicarrier. With Captain America and Iron Man’s attacks failing, Fury devises a desperate plan to channel the Behemoth’s power through Iron Man to disrupt Red Ronin in the Hudson River—only to find the robot’s pilot unconscious, leaving the machine to awaken and rampage on its own.
In "Last Stand on Long Island," the Avengers and S.H.I.E.L.D. face off against the relentless Red Ronin, a rogue machine that refuses to stop even after being cut in half. Inside the towering robot, Jo and The Beast fight to shut it down from within, racing against time as the machine continues its assault. When the battle finally ends, the team returns to Avengers Mansion—only to be met with an unexpected and urgent surprise.
