Oh, my stars and garters - it's wall-to-wall action as the Avengers face the Toad (in command of a starship?!), the revenge-seeking Whirlwind and an assassin dead-set on killing them one-by-one! And when Yellowjacket nearly dies, only the Beast's scientific knowledge can save him! See your favorite mutant hold his own alongside Captain America, Hawkeye and Thor!
