Los Vengadores #8
"Guerra Espacial" marks a pivotal moment in the Latin American run of Los Vengadores, as the team faces a cosmic threat that tests their unity. With Libra surrendering to justice and the Captain returning from Vietnam to confront the Secret Empire’s lingering influence, the Avengers must defend the Mansion from Drax’s assault—only to uncover a larger conspiracy tied to Thanos. Steve Englehart’s storytelling, brought to life by John Buscema’s dynamic art and Dave Cockrum’s sharp inks, culminates in a spaceborne showdown where the team’s resolve is pushed to the limit. The cover by López Espí captures the epic scale of the battle, making this 35-ESP comic a standout from 1975.
In "Guerra Espacial," Libra surrenders to authorities, and the Captain returns to the Mansion to recount his time in Vietnam and his encounters with the Secret Empire. When Drax attacks the Mansion, Pantera Negra, the Visión, Mantis, and the Espadachín defend it—only for the arrival of Captain Marvel and Mondragón to clear up the misunderstanding. As a mysterious enemy fleet is detected, the Avengers take the fight into space, where they must overcome a foe cut off from their translator device.
In this 1975 tale from *Los Vengadores #8*, Klaw, aided by Solarr, launches a cunning attack on the Avengers, impersonating the ambassador of Rudyarda to manipulate Black Panther into naming him dictator of Wakanda. Trapped inside a solid sound dome, five Avengers face execution unless the remaining three can uncover a way to break the trap. As the team battles both the villain’s scheme and their own limits, a pivotal moment forces Black Panther to return to Wakanda—and Captain America to reconsider his place among the heroes.
In "¡Codicia!", a lonely researcher begins receiving eerie telepathic messages from long-dead Martians, urging him to construct a device that could bridge worlds. As he obeys, the gold he's promised becomes a cursed reward—molten and consuming him whole.
