In this 2015 issue from the Marvel Official Comics Collection, the New Avengers gather for a quiet game of cards—only to find their conversation pulled toward the lingering shadow of Captain America’s death. Meanwhile, the Mighty Avengers unleash their fury on Tiger Shark after he wields the Horn of Gabriel to summon a tide of sea monsters threatening the coast. Written by Jeph Loeb and illustrated by Ed McGuinness, with inks by Dexter Vines and colors by Jason Keith, the issue captures a moment of tension and reckoning, all framed by John Cassaday’s striking cover art.
