Avengers West Coast #78

Part 3 of the "Infamous Monsters of Hollywood" arc brings the West Coast Avengers face-to-face with the Hangman, who dominates this Dave Ross and Tim Dzon cover in a menacing crouch — bruised, snarling, and bound at the wrists while a blue-clad figure closes in behind him under a studio spotlight. With Wonder Man, Hawkeye, Iron Man, and U.S. Agent all called out along the top banner, this 1992 issue promises a full roster ready to tangle with Hollywood's deadliest threat. Roy Thomas and Dann Thomas were firing on all cylinders during this run, and the cover's cinematic staging makes it clear the Avengers' monster trouble is far from over.
