This is it, the granddaddy of all epic events. Before Identity Crisis, Infinite Crisis, House of M, Civil War, and Infinity Gauntlet there was Secret Wars.

A nigh omnipotent being from beyond has, for lack of a better word, kidnapped the greatest heroes and deadliest villains in the Marvel Universe and whisked them to the far side of the universe to battle for the ultimate prize. One thing is for certain, the lives of these heroes and villains will never be the same again.

Starring the Avengers (Captain America, Thor, Wasp, Iron Man (James Rhodes), She Hulk, and Captain Marvel), the Fantastic Four (minus the Invisible Woman), X-Men (Professor X, Wolverine, Cyclops, Storm, Nightcrawler, Rogue, and Colossus), Magneto, Spider-Man, and the Incredible Hulk vs. Doctor Doom, Ultron, Absorbing Man, the Lizard, Molecule Man, Doctor Octopus, Kang the Conqueror, the Wrecking Crew, and the Enchantress.
