    SUPREME DANGER

    On one front, SQUADRON SUPREME – greatest heroes of another world, stranded on Earth. They have been both foes and allies in the past – but now they step forward with a grave charge against the Avengers, a charge that, if true, could throw the world into turmoil.

    On another, SUPREME INTELLIGENCE – the greatest achievement of alien Kree science, a Machiavellian super-computer that will stop at nothing to reach its goals. It desires nothing more than revenge for past defeats at the Avengers hands…or does it?

    SUPREME JUSTICE

    Against twin threats stand the AVENGERS – Earths Mightiest Heroes, banded together to face the foes no single hero could withstand alone. The stakes are high…and failure is not an option.

    SUPREME SACRIFICE

    And through it all, one Avenger battles personal demons. WARBIRD (former Ms. Marvel and future Captain Marvel) recently returned to the team, hides secrets…secrets that could not only destroy her, but take the Avengers down with her as well.

    Softcover, 304 pages, full color.
