The Avengers #258

In "Pyrrhic Victory!", the Avengers return from a mission that left the Savage Land in ruins, only to face a shocking setback: their national security clearance has been revoked. With their actions under scrutiny by overzealous government agents, the team must confront the fallout of their choices—before their fight for justice becomes a battle against the very system they were sworn to protect. Written by Roger Stern and brought to life with dynamic art by John Buscema, inks by Tom Palmer, and colors by Christie Scheele, this issue blends moral complexity with high-stakes tension. The cover, also by Buscema and Palmer, captures the team’s strained resolve as they face their most unexpected adversary yet.
