The Mighty Avengers #26

Set against the shadow of Marvel's 2009 Dark Reign crossover event, this issue of The Mighty Avengers presents a diverse, battle-ready team surging forward with urgent purpose. Marko Djurdjević's cover renders a striking ensemble — a goggled young hero, a red-caped figure, a star-emblazoned Stature-like character, a red-faced winged hero, a masked blonde woman, and a snarling, bare-chested powerhouse leading the charge — all conveying the raw energy of a team that refuses to stand down. Dan Slott continues the "Mighty / Fantastic" two-parter here, with interior art by Stephen Segovia, making this a vivid chapter in one of 2009's most ambitious Avengers lineups.
