    The Korvac Saga: Part 2 of 10 - "First Blood" Guest-starring the Guardians of the Galaxy. Script by Jim Shooter. Pencils by George Perez. Inks by Pablo Marcos. Cover by George Perez and Terry Austin. The Avengers along with Charlie-27, Martinex, Nikki, Starhawk, and Yondu return to their Fifth Avenue mansion to begin the search for Korvac. But inside the mansion a new foe is waiting...Mr. Peter Gyrich! The federal government's special agent reads the riot act to Iron Man for the lax security at Avengers headquarters! After Gyrich exits, the star-spangled avenger gives Shell-head a piece of his mind too, until the Scarlet Witch intervenes to cool down the situation. Meanwhile, Starhawk travels to Queens and engages Michael (aka Korvac) in a life-and-death battle of cosmic proportions! And also in this issue, Hawkeye and the Two-Gun Kid are enjoying a train ride in Colorado, when suddenly the Two-Gun Kid disappears! Cameo appearances by Vance Astro, Doctor Strange, Captain Marvel, the Silver Surfer, Peter Parker, and Mary Jane Watson. Cover price $0.35.
