And the Celestial Man simply cannot stand it! He needs a new plan to escape from this world...and after a chance meeting with Thor, the long-time foe of the Defenders might just have one! Meanwhile, Supernalia (another alien from Nebulon's homeworld) has detected the Celestial Man's diabolic plan and enlists the Beast, Gargoyle, Valkyrie, and Silver Surfer to stop Nebulon...and the Avengers if necessary! One thing leads to another, and in the majestic Himalayan Mountains, the Mighty Avengers and the Dynamic Defenders throw down just like they did many years ago! The Wasp vs. Gargoyle!

"Moonrise" Guest-starring the Inhumans. Script by Bill Mantlo. Art by Jackson Guice (breakdowns) and Rick Magyar (finishes). Cover by Al Milgrom and Joe Sinnott. The Fantastic Four have been hauled before the United Nations Security Council to explain why the Inhumans and their homeland were allowed to relocate to the moon (in Fantastic Four 240) without full disclosure! The U.N. no longer trusts the FF, so they ask the Avengers to journey to the moon and negotiate peace with the Inhumans! The relationship between Earth's Mightiest Heroes and Black Bolt, Medusa, Gorgon, Karnak, Triton, and Crystal goes way back to many previous adventures, so their meeting in Attilan is a pleasant one. But there's another inhuman on the moon that the Avengers also have a past relationship with...a certain madman known as Maximus! And he's ready to commence his next twisted scheme to destroy the Earth and his royal cousins! When massive boulders begin launching towards Earth, the finger-pointing starts! And suddenly the battle lines are drawn between the Mighty Avengers and the Incomparable Inhumans! Will Medusa or Captain America or the Wasp or anyone realize what Maximus has done before time runs out? Cameo appearances by the Fantastic Four, the Enclave, and the Alpha Primitives. Flashback cameos by Nick Fury, Dum Dum Dugan, and Magneto. Avengers Lineup: Captain America, Captain Marvel, Scarlet Witch, She-Hulk, Starfox, Thor, Vision, and the Wasp. 48 pages Cover price $1.00.
