The Avengers Annual #9

The 1979 King-Size Annual promises a full 34-page Avengers epic, and the cover — penciled by Don Newton and inked by Joe Rubinstein — makes a striking case for its subtitle, "The Power of Arsenal!" A massive armored figure dominates the image, clutching both Hawkeye and the Beast in its enormous hands as broken arrows scatter across the floor below. The roster portraits lining the left side — the Vision, Thor, Iron Man, Captain America, the Scarlet Witch, and Wonder Man — remind you just how much firepower Arsenal has already brushed aside, setting up what looks like an enormously fun, oversized team challenge written by Bill Mantlo with art by Don Newton.
