“With Two Beside Them!”

In "With Two Beside Them!", Daredevil and the Black Widow join a diminished Avengers team in a desperate bid to break Magneto’s mind control over their captured teammates and the X-Men. With the fate of both teams hanging in the balance, the Black Widow earns her place as an official Avenger in a mission that tests courage, cunning, and the strength of the team’s unbroken spirit. Written by Steve Englehart and illustrated by Don Heck with inks by Mike Esposito, this 1973 classic features a dynamic cover by John Romita, Rich Buckler, and Joe Sinnott.

Trivia · 8 facts

  • Black Widow (Natasha Romanoff) officially joins the Avengers in this issue — her formal induction after years as a recurring ally, making this her first appearance as a card-carrying Avenger.
  • Title: 'With Two Beside Them!' — the concluding chapter (Part 3 of 3) of a crossover arc that began in Avengers #110 (Part 1) and continued in Daredevil #99 (Part 2).
  • Written by Steve Englehart; interior art by penciler Don Heck and inker Mike Esposito; edited by Roy Thomas.
  • Cover pencils are disputed: multiple sources credit Rich Buckler and/or John Romita Sr. (inked by Joe Sinnott) — no consensus has been reached.
  • Magneto debuts a new power in this arc: the ability to magnetically control human minds by manipulating the iron content in the bloodstream — holding captive Captain America, Iron Man, Thor, Scarlet Witch, Professor X, Cyclops, Marvel Girl, and Iceman simultaneously.
  • The Vision defeats Magneto by using his intangibility to secretly possess Magneto's lackey the Piper from the inside, then striking Magneto unconscious — freeing all the mind-controlled heroes.
  • The issue features cameo flashbacks or brief appearances by Angel, Quicksilver, Mastermind, Toad, Amphibius, Barbarus, Brainchild, Gaza, Lupo, and Jason Wyngarde (Mastermind), populating it with virtually the full Brotherhood and Savage Land Mutates rosters.
  • The story is collected in Avengers Epic Collection Vol. 6: 'A Traitor Stalks Among Us' (Marvel, 2021), which spans the 1972–1973 period of Englehart's run.
