The Avengers
The stories that built the Marvel Universe, from the brilliant minds of legendary creators - available in an accessible format the whole family can enjoy! Brought together to fight the Marvel Universe's biggest menaces, Iron Man, Thor, Giant-Man and the Wasp were heavy hitters. But Marvel heroes don't just fight crime - they live, dream, argue and even fall out! In an innovative twist that would come to define the Avengers, Stan Lee chose to have the team's original members depart, leaving Captain America to carry on with new allies: Hawkeye, Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch - all former foes, now conflicted and newly minted heroes who completed a dynamic, unpredictable and exciting quartet!
