๐Ÿ“– Description

Avengers Vol. 1 #89, published in June 1971, is the official prelude to the legendary Kree-Skrull War โ€” one of Marvelโ€™s most influential cosmic sagas. This issue puts the spotlight on Captain Marvel (Mar-Vell) as he faces capture, public fear, and the wrath of Earthโ€™s own defense systems.

Imprisoned by the U.S. military, Mar-Vell stands accused of endangering the planet. Meanwhile, the Avengers investigate his sudden reappearance and discover a much larger threat brewing across the stars. This emotionally charged issue blends Cold War paranoia, xenophobia, and intergalactic tension โ€” themes that would explode in the issues that follow.

Written by Roy Thomas and illustrated by Sal Buscema, this issue lays the groundwork for the Kree-Skrull War and represents a critical turning point in Marvelโ€™s shift toward cosmic storytelling on an epic scale.
