Avengers Vol. 1 #80, published in September 1970, is a Bronze Age key issue featuring the first appearance of Red Wolf (William Talltrees), Marvel’s first Native American superhero. When corporate greed and environmental destruction threaten sacred land, a mystical transformation occurs—giving rise to a new kind of warrior rooted in Native tradition and justice.

Set in the American Southwest, this issue blends supernatural elements with modern conflict as the Avengers join forces with Red Wolf to face off against the corrupt Cornelius van Lunt and a rising supernatural evil. Vision, Scarlet Witch, Black Panther, Quicksilver, and Goliath all take part in this action-driven, culturally significant storyline.

Written by Roy Thomas with art by John Buscema, this issue broke new ground in Marvel’s diversity and storytelling, setting the stage for future Indigenous heroes in the Marvel Universe.
