“Wild In the Streets!”

In "Wild In the Streets!", the Avengers face a storm of public scrutiny as the debate over Namor’s membership reaches a boiling point. When Moonstone manipulates protesters into chaos, Captain Marvel springs into action to rescue FBI agent Derek Freeman from a crashing helicopter—only for the team to unknowingly deliver Moonstone into the hands of the Absorbing Man and Titania, disguised as police. With Namor now facing a $2 billion lawsuit and forced to flee to Atlantis to protect Marrina from Attuma’s rising rule, the team’s unity is tested like never before. Written by Roger Stern and brought to life with dynamic art by John Buscema and Tom Palmer, with colors by Christie Scheele and letters by Jim Novak, the cover by John Buscema and Joe Jusko captures the escalating tension.
