☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis Barnes & Noble exclusive edition of Marvel Masterworks: The Avengers, Volume 1 collects the earliest adventures of Earth's Mightiest Heroes, reprinting The Avengers #1-10 and material from Journey into Mystery #101. Written by Stan Lee and illustrated by Jack Kirby, this foundational volume introduces the original team lineup of Thor, Iron Man, Ant-Man, Wasp, and the Hulk, and pits them against classic villains including Loki, the Space Phantom, Kang the Conqueror, and the combined might of Baron Zemo's Masters of Evil. It also marks the return of Captain America from suspended animation and the debut of Wonder Man, setting the stage for the series' enduring legacy.
When the Avengers worry over the Hulk’s unpredictable path after his departure, their fears are tested when they confront him—leading to a clash that soon draws in the Sub-Mariner. As tensions rise, Namor and the Hulk find themselves at odds, but a shared threat forces an uneasy alliance against the heroes who once tried to stop them.
Captain America awakens from decades in suspended animation after Namor's attack on an Eskimo village, only to be thrust into a new era when the Avengers rescue him. With the team turned to stone by a mysterious alien, Cap and Rick Jones must track down the being who holds their fate—and help him recover his shattered spaceship—before the Avengers are lost forever.
In "Kang, The Conqueror!", the time-displaced tyrant Kang arrives on Earth with an ultimatum: rule the planet or face annihilation. As the Avengers struggle against his overwhelming power, it’s up to Wasp and the Teen Brigade to buy just enough time for the team to break free and turn the tide.
When Zemo bestows immense power on Simon Williams, he demands a price no one expects—Williams must become Wonder Man to spy on the Avengers. As he struggles with the burden of his new abilities and the cost of his allegiance, the line between loyalty and survival begins to blur.
In "The Avengers Break Up!", Immortus arrives uninvited, offering his mastery of Limbo and ancient power to the Masters of Evil—turning the tide against the Avengers with a legion of forgotten warriors from ages past.
