In timeless limbo Earth's Mightiest Heroes and their long-time foe, Kang the Conqueror, are captives of the chief council Kang! However, the Lion of Olympus cannot be held for long in a simple paralysis beam! When Hercules breaks free, chaos breaks loose! The Avengers assemble to battle the chief council Kang, while the 41st century Kang also attacks his Kang-brother! Confusing indeed! But in the land of limbo things are seldom what they seem. And eventually the true orchestrator of events is revealed! With Ravonna by his side, Immortus stops the fighting and makes everything all right. Or does he? The Avengers aren't so sure, but of course only time will tell. Flashback cameos by the Fantastic Four, Doctor Doom, and the Pharaoh Rama-Tut. Avengers Lineup: Black Knight, Captain America, Captain Marvel, Hercules, Sub-Mariner, and the Wasp. (Notes: Immortus appears next in Avengers West Coast 48.

This issue sets the stage for many great future encounters.) 32 pages Cover price $0.75.
