“Assault on Atlantis”

In "Assault on Atlantis," the Avengers and Alpha Flight launch a daring mission to rescue Marrina from Attuma’s grasp in the besieged undersea realm. With tensions boiling and the kingdom on the brink, Namor’s absence from the team marks a turning point as he steps away to support Marrina, whose changed appearance leaves her isolated. Written by Roger Stern and brought to life with dynamic art by John Buscema and Tom Palmer, the cover by Buscema and Palmer captures the epic scale of the conflict.
