    "A Ghost of Stone!" Script by Gerry Conway. Pencils by Don Heck. Inks by Pablo Marcos. Cover by Jack Kirby and Dan Adkins. It's Christmas Eve in Avengers Mansion! A wonderful time for celebrating with friends, exchanging gifts, and fending off blindside attacks! In surprising fashion the long-forgotten Black Knight busts into the mansion and knocks out the Beast, Yellowjacket, and Iron Man! And now the stone statue of Dane Whitman prowls the hallways looking for his next victims! Once the star-spangled avenger, Scarlet Witch, Wasp, and Wonder Man fall before the Black Knight...only one avenger remains! Can the stone-like Dane Whitman complete his quest for revenge against the Avengers? Or will the Vision crush the knight's distorted dream? Flashback cameos by the Defenders, Silver Surfer, Black Panther, Mantis, Swordsman, and Thor to recap the events of Avengers 118.
