“The Fix Is On!”

In "The Fix Is On!", the Fixer breaks free from prison and hijacks the Awesome Adaptoid, turning it into a formidable threat as the Avengers scramble to stop him. With Dr. Druid peering into the minds of his teammates from beyond, tensions rise as the team faces a battle that tests both their strength and unity. Written by Roger Stern and Ralph Macchio, with dynamic art by John Buscema and Tom Palmer, and a cover by Buscema and Palmer, this 1987 issue delivers a high-stakes clash with a twist that lingers long after the fight ends.
