Cover image of Avengers volume 3 issue #5

Writer: Kurt Busiek
Penciler: George Perez

The Avengers face off against rival superhero team Squadron Supreme.

Meanwhile, Vision and Wanda's relationship (or lack thereof) is fraught and uncertain, and Jarvis makes ambrosial chicken picatta.

Oh god, you reminded me of Dr. Faustus. How terrible is it to think you are getting help only to be manipulated? 616 can be so dark. It's a miracle everyone isn't afflicted with paranoia given the number of times people turned out to be villians or skrulls or brainwashed into doing terrible things. A superhero with a problem doesn't have a lot of places to go without revealing weakness to the enemy.

Now I'm thinking that what 616 really needs is the therapist version of Night Nurse. It would have to be someone super-qualified, though, someone who can deal with everything from PTSD to survivor guilt to addiction to self-esteem issues to relationship counselling. That would be a hell of a job.
