Secret Avengers #1

Steve Rogers leads a covert squad of heavy hitters in this 2011 Marvel Premiere Edition collecting the opening arc of Secret Avengers: Mission to Mars. The cover by Marko Djurdjević assembles a striking lineup — Rogers front and center flanked by Black Widow, Beast, War Machine, Moon Knight, Nova, and Sharon Carter — rendered with a sleek, espionage-thriller intensity that sets the tone perfectly. It's a compelling introduction to one of Marvel's more under-the-radar team titles, brought to life with Djurdjević's polished, painted style.
