Avengers Chapters 4, 5 and 6.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContinued from The Avengers #116\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContinues in The Avengers #117\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSilver Surfer breaks into Dr. Strange's Sanctum Sanctorum with a piece of the Evil Eye, which he won after a battle with Vision. Strange, who has been trying to figure out how to help the Black Knight, who has been turned into a stone statue, takes the Surfer's warning about the Avengers--that they are trying to get the Evil Eye instead of the Defenders--to heart. Using magic, he sees that Loki has been involved, and that the Avengers now have a known criminal, the Swordsman, on their team.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBelieving that Loki is controlling the Avengers, Strange flies off to warn the Defenders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeanwhile, Vision shares his own warning about the Defenders to the other Avengers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eValkyrie drops Hawkeye off in Monterrey, Mexico to look for another piece of the Evil Eye. Clint randomly decides to force a kiss on Val, who takes a swing at him with her sword before deciding that maybe she actually liked the nonconsensual kiss.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHawkeye thinks of all the \"mixed-up\" women he has been connected with, from Black Widow and Scarlet Witch to the Norse warrior goddess, but is interrupted in his decidedly non-politically correct reveries by the sight of Iron Man.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIron Man visits the local university, which has the piece of the Eye. However, Hawkeye snatches the Eye out of his hands with a boomeranging grapple-arrow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHawkeye and Iron Man battle, with Hawkeye doing surprisingly well due to his trick arrows. Then when Iron Man is forced to accidentally blast a building, and has to save the inhabitants, Clint takes advantage and takes off with the Eye.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDr. Strange looks for another piece of the Eye in a cornfield. Mantis and Black Panther are also there. Strange finds it first and decides to take it away in an undercover manner, pretending to be a normal person waiting at a bus. Mantis and Panther talk to the people at the bus but don't realize it's him until Mantis's senses pick up on his magic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDisocvered, Strange flies off but Panther pursues him. They battle, and gain the attention of a local, who shoots at them with his shotgun. Luckily Mantis intervenes, and saves them. She attacks Strange, who shockingly dodges her attack like few heroes ever have, using his monastery-trained skills. Deciding it's no longer time to fool around, he uses his magic to drain Panther and Mantis's strength, and leaves with the Eye.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Marvel","offers":[{"title":"VF","offer_id":67797357166840,"sku":"71486021520008009","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1040\/7328\/files\/4256.jpg?v=1792945174","url":"https:\/\/www.ascomics.com\/products\/defenders-vol-1-009-vf","provider":"A\u0026S Comics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
