The Avengers Omnibus #1
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis handsome 2011 omnibus edition opens with the very issue that launched "Earth's Mightiest Super-Heroes," and Jack Kirby and Dick Ayers's cover art still crackles with energy — Thor hurling his hammer skyward, the Hulk crouching ready for action, Iron Man and Ant-Man standing their ground, while a sneering Loki promises to destroy them all. Stan Lee's script and Kirby's interior art (inked by George Roussos, lettered by Art Simek) bring "The Coming of the Avengers!" to life, posing the cover's central question: can the combined power of the Avengers defeat the sinister spells of Loki, God of Evil? A fantastic starting point for any reader who wants to experience this corner of Marvel history in one beautifully collected volume.

Namor attacks a group of eskimos and throws their idol into the sea. When the ice melts, the figure trapped within turns out to be Captain America, in suspended animation since the end of World War II. The Avengers rescue Cap and return to New York. An alien figure turns our heroes to stone. When Cap and Rick Jones track him down, the alien agrees to restore the Avengers if they agree to help him recover his broken space ship in return. When doing so, the Avengers are attacked by Namor and his people. The restored spaceship ultimately drives off Namor and his men.
