Synopsis

Captain America leads the Avengers, a team of heroes who have sworn to protect the world from evil wherever it appears. They combine sharp minds, great physical strength and fierce loyalty to the cause. People look on them with awe, and their enemies fear them.

A new threat arrives from outer space and from the distant future. Karzz, called the Earth-Wrecker, is a monstrous creature whose aim is to destroy the whole planet.

Karzz is a hard enemy to touch. An impregnable shield of electro-force surrounds him, and he carries the most fearsome weapons a superhuman mind can devise. He can set one Avenger against another and force them into savage fights among themselves. He can treat the whole team as insects to be killed at will, and he laughs at their attempts to stop his plan.

This is a superhero adventure in the comic-book tradition, built around a single huge menace. The team has never met an opponent so deadly, and the question that drives it is whether anything can defeat him.
