    "The Secret History of the Avengers" Plot by Kurt Busiek and Roger Stern. Script by Kurt Busiek. Pencils by Carlos Pacheco. Inks by Jesús Merino. Cover by Carlos Pacheco and Jesús Merino. One of the definitive issues in the annals of the Avengers! Before departing Limbo with his teammates last issue, Hawkeye grabbed a syncho-staff from Immortus' castle. And now back on the Sphinx time machine, Clint tries to make the staff talk! And shockingly, the staff morphs into the Space Phantom, and the phantom -- with no love lost for Immortus -- begins talking! And what a tale he tells about Immortus' manipulations of Earth's Mightiest Heroes through the years! Revelations about the Vision. Secrets of the Scarlet Witch. Confessions from The Crossing (in Avengers 390-395) and Galactic Storm (in Avengers 345-347). Plus much more! Wow! Then in a flash of light, Immortus appears inside the Sphinx, and the Avengers fall! Flashback cameos by the Time-Keepers, Enchantress, Executioner, Mephisto, Mad Thinker, Ultron, and the original Human Torch. (Notes: Avengers Forever #8 is simply a must-read for long-time fans of the Avengers. The inside back cover lists the annotations and sources for issues #5 thru #7.) 32 pages. Cover price $2.99.
