“Lo! The Lethal Legion!”

In "Lo! The Lethal Legion!", the Avengers storm the hidden stronghold of the Lethal Legion in a high-stakes mission to free the Black Panther. With John Buscema’s dynamic art bringing the clash to life and Roy Thomas weaving tension through the ranks of both heroes and villains, the battle takes a shocking turn when the Vision uncovers a hidden identity that ties the Grim Reaper to a past long buried.
