Synopsis for "Avengers Assemble"
Hawkeye and Mockingbird are in California inspecting the Avengers West Compound, where they also await the arrival of possible members sent to them by the Vision. Iron Man (Jim Rhodes) and Tigra arrive. While they are there, an intruder is detected. This turns out to be the Shroud, who is keeping an eye on Tigra at Jessica Drew's request. They offer him a spot on the team, but he turns them down.
Notes
- Story continues in Iron Man Annual #7.
Trivia
- The original printing of this issue included Rom among the many heroes featured on the cover. However, since Marvel Comics lost the license to the character shortly after his solo series ended in 1986, the publisher had to remove him from reprints of the cover in Avengers: West Coast Avengers Omnibus #1 (2013), Marvel Firsts: The 1980s #2 (2014), and Epic Collection: Avengers West Coast #1 (2018), leaving a noticeable blank space in his place. Thanks to Marvel regaining the publishing rights to Rom in early 2023, the unaltered cover was finally reprinted in Marvel Masterworks: Avengers #24 (2024).
