Avengers Legends Volume 1: Avengers Forever TPB (Marvel's Finest) Book

Rick Jones is not your ordinary guy. Although he seems no different than your average underachieving twentysomething, he is one of the most pivotal characters in the Marvel Universe: Not only was he unwittingly responsible for the creation of the Incredible Hulk, not only has he been a friend and confidant to such heroes as Captain America and Captain Marvel, but it was his call for help which originally summoned the super heroes who would later form the Avengers. Now Rick Jones' life is at stake. Immortus, the Lord of Time, has foreseen that Rick will somehow alter the future of the universe, and has decided to kill him before that can happen. To defend him, Rick-with the assistance of the alien Kree Supreme Intelligence, one of the Avengers' greatest foes-has assembled a team of Avengers from different timelines: Giant-Man and the Wasp from the present, a cocky Hawkeye the archer from earlier in his career, Captain America from a period of time when the Watergate scandal had caused the Sentinel of Liberty to question his patriotism, and Songbird, from the future, a hero who in the present had not even joined the team. Most ominous is Yellowjacket, a former Avengers who is Hank Pym, the current Giant-Man, in a period of mental instability making him an unpredictable wild card. Now this team of time-lost heroes must journey through time, revisiting many pivotal moments ion the history of the Marvel Universe. Ultimately, they must join forces with the evil Kang the Conqueror, one of their arch-enemies, who in the future will become Immortus himself!Read More
