AVENGERS vs. DEFENDERS WAR CROSSOVER
Synopsis
The Avengers Vs. The Defenders Chapter 4: Divide... And Conquer
Continuing from the events in Avengers #116.... The Silver Surfer has returned to Dr. Strange's Sanctum Sanctorum with the first fragment of the Evil Eye. He informs Dr. Strange that he met opposition from the Avengers. Using the Orb of Agamotto to check out what is going on, Dr. Strange gets an image that Loki is involved, and unaware that the Swordsman has reformed and joined the Avengers ranks, believes the Avengers may be under some evil influence. Dr. Strange orders the Surfer to stay behind as he leaves to aid the other Defenders in collecting the other fragments of the Evil Eye.
Meanwhile, back on the island of Rurutu, the Vision and the Scarlet Witch report in to the other Avengers, informing them that what Loki had told them was "true" and to be on the alert of other members of the Defenders that may stop them from collecting the parts of the Evil Eye that they are trying to collect themselves.
